With his dazzling thrash fretwork, former Megadeth and current Act of Defiance and In Flames guitarist Chris Broderick is heralded as an exacting and modern metal master.

When Broderick first came to Jackson® to design his own signature model, he had clear 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 premium features to keep up with the most demanding styles of music.

The Jackson® Pro Plus Series Signature Chris Broderick Soloist™ 7 features a 25.5" scale length, resonant mahogany body draped with a stunning flame maple arched top and a three-piece maple through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement for rock-solid stability and enhanced sustain. Its 12"-radius bound ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo stainless steel frets is ideal for all playing styles, comfortable for both low riffing and soaring leads.

Contemporary guitarists require tonal versatility and punchy clarity to keep pace with the rapid twists and turns of today's metal. Direct mount DiMarzio® Chris Broderick signature humbucking bridge and neck pickups deliver powerful clear harmonics with accentuated pick attack and tight lows for versatile tone, from heavy chording to searing solos. The volume control conceals a push/pull switch for coil-splitting, unlocking even more tonal options while the tone control's push/pull switch enables the tone circuit. Switch between pickup combinations with a three-way toggle, while a TESI momentary latching button switch acting as a killswitch when engaged. Other premium features include Gotoh® 1996T-7 double-locking tremolo system, Jackson die-cast tuners and Jackson® locking strap buttons.

Wrapped in a Transparent Black finish with matching reverse Jackson reverse AT-1 3x4 headstock and black hardware, this pedigreed metal machine is a force to be reckoned with.
