What we say:
At A Glance:
Features We Love:
The S1.6HLB by Solar Guitars has been developed to offer optimised performance for the professional guitarist. By using the most advanced components like locking tuners, a Hipshot bridge and custom Seymour Duncan pickups, Solar have created a fantastic looking and ergonomic guitar that's built to sound great and keep sounding great, no matter how hard you play.
This beautiful "S" Series model features a stunning poplar burl veneer with a Lime Burst finish that hints at a traditional style, but still retains an extreme edge. It's a tasteful take on the extreme guitar and would suit those looking to play aggressive music at high speeds!
Type S Series
Solar Guitar founder and YouTube celebrity Ola Englund designed the Type S Series of guitars with professional artists in mind. Combining decades of experience, he set out with the vision to create the most reliable, versatile and fluid feeling instrument possible for use in the studio and on stage. With impenetrable tuning stability thanks to the locking tuners and hipshot bridge, an ergonomic one volume, one tone and 5-way pickup selector configuration, Luminlay side dots, 24 super jumbo frets and the awesome sounding high output Duncan Solar pickups, if the quest was to create the ultimate machine for metal, we'd say that the mission's been accomplished!
Duncan Solar
Englund collaborated with Seymour Duncan to develop a pickup specifically for Solar Guitars. The Duncan Solar pickups are exclusive to Solar Guitars and compliment the guitar's mahogany body perfectly to create a tone with a tight low end and clear highs. Of course, they sound amazing overdriven, but Ola knew it was important for them to clean up nicely and the result is a pickup set that's versatile over a wide range of dynamics.
Hipshot Bridge
Hipshot bridges are a regular feature of modern metal guitars. Made in the USA, Hipshot bridges are renowned for their quality construction and for offering a comfortable surface for your hand to sit on when palm muting. The string through body construction also directs the resonance from the strings directly into the guitar's body, which aids the guitar's great tone and lasting sustain.
Pros:
- The ultimate metal guitar!
- Hipshot bridge and locking tuners offer impervious tuning stability
