Here for sale we have a Solar A1.6FB electric guitar in a Flame Black Matte finish. Built in Indonesia in 2021, this guitar features an Alder body with a flamed Maple veneer, set thru Maple neck and a Ebony fingerboard. Solar 18:1 Locking tuning machines are featured along with a pair of Duncan Solar humbuckers, wired to master volume/tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. An Evertune bridge is another key feature of this instrument, a reliable, fully-mechanical system that can be set to keep the guitar in tune under any circumstances.
The Maple 'C' profile neck sits comfortably in the hand, and with its Satin finish provides a quick and smooth surface. The 13.78” radius and Super Jumbo frets assist with string bending and vibrato techniques, feeling rock solid under the fingers and provide a smooth and reliable playing surface. Stainless steel has been used for the fret material making sure that they will manage plenty of play time before suffering any meaningful wear. The rolled neck heel and tapered cutaways give unobstructed access, right up to the 24th fret, offering a more modern feel providing fantastic sustain
The Duncan Solar pickups have a high output producing a thick and powerful modern tone. With a tight low end, a full and defined midrange and a crisp and articulate top end, perfect for pushing the front end of an amplifier. The 5-way blade switch gives great variation, allowing for split coil tones in the in-between positions, great for clean sounds. Overall a great modern workhorse guitar for heavier genres.
