Jackson Pro Plus Series Chris Broderick Signature Soloist 6 Electric Guitar - Transparent Black

Fans of Chris Broderick know his playing leaves no room for compromise—and his Jackson Pro Plus Series Chris Broderick Signature Soloist 6 is built with that same level of intensity. Designed alongside the Megadeth, Act of Defiance and In Flames alumnus, it’s a precision instrument for players who live in the world of down-picked aggression, wide-interval lines and hyper-detailed articulation. A mahogany body capped with an arched flamed maple top sets a resonant, responsive foundation, while the neck-through three-piece maple construction with graphite reinforcement gives the guitar the unwavering stability Broderick depends on. From DiMarzio signature pickups to the Gotoh 1996T tremolo system and a suite of advanced switching options, this Soloist is engineered to handle the most demanding modern metal techniques without ever losing clarity or control.

DiMarzio Signature Pickups Deliver Broderick-Level Articulation

Direct-mount DiMarzio Chris Broderick signature humbuckers sit at the heart of this guitar’s voice, offering tight lows, focused mids and searing harmonic response tailored for technical metal. Coil splitting via the push/pull volume knob unlocks chimey single-coil tones, while the push/pull tone control engages the tone circuit for expanded shaping. Paired with a three-way toggle, these pickups give you immediate access to everything from punishing rhythm tones to clean textures that cut through dense arrangements—ideal for players who shift from intricate riffing to melodic passages within the same song.

Neck-Through Construction Built for Speed, Sustain and Stability

The three-piece maple neck features a neck-through-body design reinforced with graphite, ensuring rock-solid tuning stability and exceptional sustain under heavy tension. A natural satin finish promotes fluid movement, while the bound ebony fingerboard—with a fast 12" radius, 24 jumbo stainless steel frets and Luminlay side dots—supports everything from low-register power to precision lead work on dark stages. The scarf joint enhances structural strength, delivering a neck that stays comfortable and consistent no matter how aggressive your playing becomes.

Gotoh 1996T Tremolo System Ensures Lethal Pitch Control

The recessed Gotoh 1996T double-locking tremolo is built for players who take their vibrato techniques to extremes. Dive bombs, flutters and wide bends stay perfectly in tune thanks to the paired locking nut and Jackson die-cast tuners, while the bridge’s smooth travel and accurate intonation make it a trusted platform for expressive, high-impact techniques. Jackson locking strap buttons add another layer of security, ensuring the guitar stays with you through every leap, spin or stage move.

Mahogany Body with Flamed Maple Top for Aggressive Clarity

The Soloist’s mahogany body provides rich lows and dense sustain, balanced by the snap and definition of its flamed maple top. The Transparent Black gloss finish showcases the figured maple beneath, giving the guitar a sleek, modern aesthetic that matches its high-performance intent. This tonewood combination delivers the warmth needed for thick rhythm parts and the attack required for articulate lead work—crucial for players navigating complex metal arrangements.

A Signature Soloist Crafted for a Modern Metal Vanguard

Every element of the Jackson Pro Plus Series Chris Broderick Soloist 6 is purpose-built for players chasing precision, versatility and expressive range. From studio tracking to stage-level brutality, it delivers the tone, feel and reliability demanded by one of metal’s most technically gifted guitarists. If your playing pushes boundaries the way Broderick’s does, this guitar gives you the platform to rise to that level—every note, every run, every riff.
