The Chris Broderick Signature Was Built to Burn
Designed in collaboration with Jackson Custom Shop Master Builder Mike Shannon, the Jackson USA Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 6 was conceived as a premium take on one of the company's most classic — and eminently venerable — models. This five-star axe was built for maximum performance, melding an ergonomic offset mahogany body with an exquisite arched maple top and rock-solid neck-through-body construction. This solidbody electric guitar brandishes a comfortable graphite-reinforced, quartersawn maple neck, which is capped by a fast-playing, 12-inch-radius ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo-sized, stainless steel frets. The Chris Broderick Soloist delivers a smorgasbord of head-crushing tones courtesy of a set of direct-mount, custom-designed DiMarzio humbuckers, which are bolstered by a mini-toggle kill switch, a push-pull coil split, and a push-pull tone kill. You also get a Floyd Rose Lo-Pro double-locking tremolo to unleash your pent-up pitch pyrotechnics, along with Planet Waves Auto-Trim locking tuners and Ernie Ball strap locks. Furthermore, the Chris Broderick Soloist was tailor-made for the spotlight, thanks to a light-catching gloss polyurethane finish and stunning masked-off quilt-maple binding. The Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 6 is one of the finest made-for-metal instruments in Jackson's USA lineup, and given the company's penchant for top-shelf metal-ready axes, that's really saying something.
High-octane performance and playability

Sweetwater guitarists have found the Chris Broderick Soloist to be the perfect weapon for insane leads, sudden-death riffs, and any other fretboard hijinks you'd care to partake in.
Loaded with high-output crunch

Armed with a duo of direct-mount, Broderick-designed DiMarzio D Activator humbuckers, this metallic beast delivers a whole slew of archetypal modern metal tones with near-limitless headroom, articulate response, and superb dynamics. The Chris Broderick Soloist 6 also boasts a mini-toggle kill switch, a push-pull coil split, and a push-pull tone kill, ensuring that you have everything from paint-peeling, ear-pinning grind to chiming, single-coil-style glassiness readily at your disposal.
Built for dive-bombs and squealies
The Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 6 holds up to sadistic whammy abuse without choking, thanks to its Floyd Rose Lo-Pro double-locking tremolo. A high-performance trem with an unfettered, low-profile feel, the Lo-Pro is fully capable of subtle, expressive warbles, although that's probably not what you're shooting for. Never fear; this lean, mean shredder also tackles screaming harmonic squeals and subterranean dive-bombs with equal assurance.
