Jackson announced today the launch of The Jackson® Pro Series Signature Chris Broderick Soloist™, a collaboration between the brand and the renowned In Flames heavy metal guitarist Chris Broderick encapsulating his personal take on the classic Soloist™ model.
Created for guitar players seeking an instrument loaded with premium features, these all-new pro series signature models are designed to keep up with even the most demanding styles of music. When Broderick first came to Jackson to discuss designing his own signature model nearly 10 years ago, the USA Signature Chris Broderick Soloist, he had a clear vision on how to create his own take on the renowned Soloist™.
Now with the Pro Series, when Broderick approached the collaboration with an upgraded twist on specific sets of specs and modifications, Jackson rose to the challenge of designing Brodericks’ dream Signature Models. By the end of the creative process, he coined the long-standing high-performance guitar giant as the “company that could.” The results of the collaboration are sophisticated riffing machines loaded with premium features to keep up with the hard rock styles of music. By putting a modern metal twist on a classic Jackson® favourite, Broderick and Jackson are able to create the perfect contemporary guitar series.
The Jackson® Pro Series Signature Chris Broderick Soloist™ is offered in six-and seven-string guitar options and feature a 25.5” scale length, resonant mahogany body with arched poplar burl top on Trans finishes and through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability and enhanced sustain. Its 12”-radius bound laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets is ideal for all playing styles, comfortable for both low riffing and soaring leads.
