Pro Plus Series Soloist SLA2
The Pro Plus SLA2's premium features include an arched nyatoh body and three-piece through-body maple/walnut neck and hand-rubbed oil finish on the back for smooth playability and comfort, as well as graphite-reinforcement rods that provide stability to guard against temperature- and humidity-induced bending and warping. Its 12"-16" compound radius bound ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets is designed for highly technical lightspeed playing - more curved by the nut for comfortable chording, it flattens out as you move up the neck for increasingly fast playing speed and wide bends without fretting out. Luminlay® side dots will guide your way along the fretboard even on the darkest of stages. A pair of direct mount Seymour Duncan® humbucking pickups (JB/'59™) power this axe, with single volume and tone controls plus five-way blade switching to tweak and a Floyd Rose® 1000 Series double-locking tremolo system for improved tuning stability.
