Description

Crafted for the modern guitarist, the Solar SBR1.6 is a powerhouse of precision and playability, designed to cater to both the purist and the performer. This solid body electric guitar boasts an Evertune F-Type bridge, a fully mechanical marvel that ensures your instrument stays in tune, no matter how intense the performance. The body is sculpted from alder, offering a balanced tone that complements the rich, resonant sounds from the dual Duncan Solar+ Humbuckers.

The neck, a bolt-on roasted maple masterpiece, is paired with an ebony fingerboard that features fluorescent Luminlay dot side markers for effortless navigation on dimly lit stages. The sleek C-shaped profile and a substantial 24 super jumbo stainless steel frets make for an incredibly comfortable playing experience, ideal for both shredding solos and intricate chord work.

For those who demand versatility, the 5-way switch offers a spectrum of tonal options, while the 18:1 locking machine heads ensure stability and precision. The Solar SBR1.6 is not just a guitar; it’s a statement of style and substance, ready to elevate your sound to new heights.
