Features We Love:

Designed for Metal!

Solar Guitar founder and YouTube celebrity Ola Englund is well known for his metal prowess. Combining decades of touring experience, he set out with the vision to create the modern guitars that can handle the most extreme styles. With unparalleled tuning stability thanks to the Evertune bridge, an ergonomic one volume, one tone and 5-way pickup selector configuration, 24 super jumbo frets and the awesome sounding high output Duncan Solar pickups, if the quest was to create the ultimate gigging machine for metal, we'd say that the mission's been accomplished!

Evertune

The Evertune bridge has been a true breakthrough in the guitar world over the last few years, especially loved by metal players where aggressive precise playing is met with running and jumping around on stage. Many factors can interfere with your guitar's tuning, from humidity and temperature, to playing style and even how new your strings are. Evertune bridges use a patented mechanical system which remembers the string tension after you tune your guitar, once it's set and the system is activated the guitar will never go out of tune. Changes in climate, strings stretching or general aggressive playing are all corrected by the bridge, leaving the guitar in tune in any situation.

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 Alder 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.
