General

If you like a sleek, high-gloss black finish, this high-grade USA Soloist from the Jackson Custom Shop will certainly appeal to you. This asymmetrical HT6 guitar was designed by Mike Shannon and master guitarist Chris Broderick, and has a solid body made of mahogany to guarantee a core sound with lots of sustain.

Soloist HT6: Dimarzio Direct Mount and Planet Waves Auto-Trim

Chris Broderick's stage experience spans over three decades, so he knows exactly which specifications work for him. You can reap the benefits, since this signature model is the culmination of all his knowledge. Broderick-designed Custom DiMarzio direct-mounted humbucking pickups provide a powerful and clear signal that easily boosts you through the mix. The recessed Floyd Rose Pro bridge provides optimal tuning stability and can be set up very precisely. Changing strings is a piece of cake with the Planet Waves Auto-Trim tuners; a clever solution to a common issue. Furthermore, the 12-inch ebony fretboard doesn't have any inlays. Consider yourself a painter in front of a blank canvas and explore new shapes and patterns.
