Description
Designed specifically for the most discerning guitarists, this premium six-string instrument represents the pinnacle of the Solar Type X1 range, blending high-end performance with striking elegance. As part of the Type XF1.6FRFBR+ series, this flat-top guitar ensures you stand out from the crowd with a stealthy aesthetic and a professional-grade feature set engineered for the demands of both studio recording and live stage performance. To provide exceptional resonance and sustain, the instrument is equipped with a Floyd Rose 1000 vibrato system featuring a 34 mm block and mechanically muted tremolo springs. It also incorporates newly engineered Duncan Solar+ high-gain pickups, which utilize Alnico VIII magnets to deliver maximum aggression, impact, and grind.
Constructed with a set-thru neck-to-body joint for full access, the guitar features a 24.75-inch scale and a mahogany body paired with a thin, fast, and comfortable maple neck. The ebony fingerboard is fitted with 22 super-jumbo stainless steel frets. Precision tuning is managed by Solar 18:1 locking tuners and a locking nut, all complemented by sleek black hardware. For tonal versatility, the electronics include a 3-way toggle switch, a single volume knob, and a tone control with a push-pull function for coil cutting. Finished in a distinctive flame blood red matte, this guitar comes complete with a custom-fitted Solar wooden hardcase. Please note that for the best connection, this instrument is designed to be used with a right-angle jack.
