General
This HT6 Transparent Black edition of the Chris Broderick Artist Signature Solist is as good as any other electric Custom Shop guitar by Jackson USA. Its asymmetrical mahogany body and maple neck are connected by means of a neck-through joint, and a dark ebony fretboard completes the picture. This Jackson signature solid-body has an arched top made of quilted maple, and features bindings fashioned from natural wood. A stylish Transparent Black lacquer finish brings out the beautiful grain. With regards to sound, you can rely on a full acoustic tone with plenty of sustain and a nice bite. The Jackson Chris Broderick HT6 is equipped with Ernie Ball strap locks and comes with a matching case.
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.
Chris Broderick
Chris Broderick is an American musician, best known for his virtuoso guitar playing. After a classical training and daily practice sessions on both electric and classical guitar as well as piano and violin, he soon grew up to become a highly skilled and versatile musician. Chris was brought into the fold of Jag Panzer, where he provided the band with complex and technical riffs for over ten years. Afterwards, he joined Nevermore on tour, where he showcased ferocious lead work alongside Jeff Loomis. In 2008, he joined the legendary Megadeth, but decided to part ways in 2014 to pursue his own musical direction, which we can now hear in Act of Defiance. Every guitarist can surely learn something from this all-rounder.
