Jackson Signature Model for a Modern Metal Master
Modern metal legend Chris Broderick — former Megadeth and current Act of Defiance guitarist — has teamed with Jackson to design an affordable, high-quality, shred-ready guitar. The Jackson Pro Series Chris Broderick FR6 Soloist is a modern metal player's dream. With a 25.5-inch scale, a resonant mahogany body, an oil-finished maple neck, and a lightning-fast laurel compound-radius fingerboard, you'll be free to explore and hone your own metal style. In addition, a pair of Broderick-designed custom DiMarzio direct-mounted humbucking pickups gives you a massive array of tonal possibilities. Modern metal players here at Sweetwater love the sound and feel of the Jackson Pro Series Chris Broderick FR6 Soloist.
Neck made for metal style
From bow to stern, the Chris Broderick FR6 Soloist is set up for mammoth sustain. You get a through-body maple neck — a proven sustain-enhancing design that lets you explore your own metal style and attack. Top that off with custom DiMarzio direct-mounted humbuckers, and you have a recipe for slippery pitch expressiveness with rock-solid tuning stability and endless sustain.
Custom-designed pickups
Two Broderick-designed custom DiMarzio direct-mounted humbucking neck and bridge pickups give you all the metal punch and bite you need. In addition, a volume control with push-pull coil splitting unlocks even more tonal options while the tone control's push-pull switch enables the tone circuit and puts you in control of a massive array of tonal stylings and attack. Finally, a mini-toggle kill switch allows for the stuttering effects that have become a mainstay of modern metal.
