When Broderick first came to Jackson to design his own signature model, he had very exacting demands in mind for his take on the venerable Soloist™. Finding a more-than-willing partner up for the challenge, Broderick coined the longstanding high-performance guitar giant as the “company that could.”
The results of the collaboration are sophisticated riffing machines loaded with the premium features needed to keep up with the most demanding music produced today.
The Pro Series Signature Chris Broderick Soloist 7 sboasts an arch-top mahogany body and through-body maple neck, 12"-radius laurel fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets, 25" scale length, stylish fingerboard and headstock binding, direct-mounted DiMarzio® Chris Broderick signature pickups, Floyd Rose® Special seven-string tremolo, Jackson die-cast tuners and Dunlop® locking strap buttons.
DIRECT MOUNT DIMARZIO D ACTIVATOR CHRIS BRODERICK SIGNATURE PICKUPS
The Broderick-designed DiMarzio® D Activator humbucking neck and bridge pickups are passive with a lot of headroom, and respond quickly and accurately to changes in pick attack. A hard pick attack doesn’t cause the signal to flatten out and picking more softly or rolling the volume control down lets the sound clean up naturally. Tonally versatile, these pickups punch well above their weight, cranking out monstrous tone that will pin your ears back, while also delivering glassy single-coil tones.
