The lineup is built around several distinct electric guitar body shapes: the double-cutaway Type A and Type S designs, and the more angular, aggressive Type V and Type E configurations favored in heavier styles of music. Instruments are specced with features like EverTune and Floyd Rose bridges, Seymour Duncan Solar pickups, full-access neck joints, and super-jumbo frets. Solar later expanded into metal bass guitars with the Type E Bass series, and launched a sister brand called S by Solar targeting entry-level players seeking the Solar aesthetic at lower price points.

Solar Guitars, S.L. operates out of Sant Gregori, Spain, and distributes globally. The brand has assembled a broad artist roster spanning YouTube-prominent guitarists and active touring musicians, and its community-focused identity—shaped in large part by Englund's ongoing direct engagement with fans online—has been a defining characteristic since its founding.

Solar has 130 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Solid Body Electric Guitars, Extended Range Guitars, and Electric Basses. Their gear is featured by 51 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Metal, and Blues. Notable users include Ola Englund, Johnny Ciardullo, and Andrew Baena. Solar's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
