Solar Guitars, founded by renowned guitarist and online celebrity Ola Englund has launched another instrument from its “Made in Europe”, European Master Series. This model, a bolt on Type AB in Carbon Black with Evertune bridge is the most popular Solar Guitar configuration to be offered from the European made series to date. As with previous European Master Series models, the company again offers players ‘Best in Class’ quality and appointments.
Solar Guitars VP and product developer, Joe Delaney states, “To start the European production program we first focused on innovative new types and shapes like the X and AC models. Now we are adding some inspirations of the brand’s most successful implementations such as this Evertune equipped Carbon Black A Type. The AB6 SVART is an aggressive statement of elegance.”
The new AB6 SVART comes with custom molded case and is in stock and available to ship from solar-guitars.com.
The new European Master Series Type AB offers the best of what can be put into an electric guitar including stainless steel frets, Richlite fingerboard, black Tusq nut, Luminlay fret markers, Solar 12th fret logo inlay, Locking tuners and Evertune bridge. The custom wound SA56BEU and SA56NEU Solar Modern humbuckers were painstakingly voiced to perfection by Ola and the Solar product team. With a more modern and aggressive take on the classic Solar Alnico V, our energy was focused to ensure these new European made pickups would be the most perfectly matched set for these new instruments. Each pickup is installed directly into the wood with brass countersinks to create a harmonious tonal marriage between body resonance and electrical output. Schaller Megaswitch, CTS potentiometers with a Push-Pull for coil splits and PureTone output jack complete the electronics package. Each guitar ships in a custom MCAS flight-ready molded case with certificate of authenticity personally signed by Ola Englund.
