Chris Broderick Dives Deep on his Jackson USA Signature Soloist Hardtail Models | Jackson Guitars

[@jacksimmons1999]

He's such a versatile player

[@kps2642]

9:26 wow just wow ., he is very versatile

[@Glazeman]

LOL Its Chris Broderick aka robot. The fact he can play Marty's solos and get it down decently. Versatile is kinda understating...

[@rohannidhitiwari9365]

@@Glazemani see many people nailing marty’s solo. But nobody do the same to Poland’s solo.

[@nemtall]

Chris your two hand tapping clean stuff is killer .

[@Paolo10692]

one of the best looking guitars I've ever seen, especially in the red finish

[@sashingopaul3111]

Paolo Pheby Black looks better

[@GeorgeZimmermen]

@@sashingopaul3111white is the best of all of em. I own the USA 7 in white since 2013. Sexy guitar

[@Janine.Najarian]

I would love to watch him to a solo fingerstyle set. Chris rules.

[@kxmrock]

True Gentleman .... Dam, 7:58 Best Two Hander i've Seen Playing Guitar Myself Since 81 ... you know he can do the Jeff Watson 2nd half Solo to "Still Rock in America"

[@ThefirstPirate]

Beast guitar player, one of my favourites.

[@biten94]

Killer Chris Broderick!

[@Colin.W]

My fianc'e ordered me one yesterday as an engagement gift! Had the Floyd version a couple years ago but traded it in for something else and I regretted it ever since. But the thing I wished for before was I wished it had a hard tail and here we go!...When I had this guitar it was probably the best feeling and most solid I have felt. Beautiful sounding as well.

[@tylerdees4850]

Jesus chris your amazing.

[@bdubz5150]

Great guitar with great features...carbon fiber rods: check, stainless frets: check, solid bridge: check, holy grail woods body/neck: check, passive pup with no inline tone robbing: check, planet waves tuners: check, attractive guitar: check....has it all! And sounds great through the EVH rig. Nice collab sig guitar. The only thing I didn't here Chris mention was if the pickups were direct body mounted or not, which definately helps with tone.

[@CatherineLee3000]

Happy Birthday, Chris Broderick!!

[@guitaraddictsanonymous81]

thats one gorgeous blue guitar!.....wow~!

[@endezeichengrimm]

The hardtail RULES!

[@dylangreen9819]

jackson please release a classic ellefson bass with the pj pickups. and old controls

[@anisagachalifeindonesiaani4691]

One of great shredder ever... Technically complete...

[@stringfellowhawk4843]

Holy shit this guy's like the new Yngwie or something. Super smart. More talent in his two hands than every "artist" in the top 40 in the history of time.

[@Encounterpart]

christian davis Haha, I admire your enthusiasm but...no. XD

[@sashingopaul3111]

Being the new Yngwie Malmsteen means playing at 10 trillion notes a second and doing it on a STRATOCASTER

[@elimarsilvanikock7818]

he’s a beast on guitar

[@chancethewizard2336]

Splendid.

[@hunter3467]

you jackson guys are awesome you make incredible guitars for all musicians i wish i could afford one :'(

[@sashingopaul3111]

HunTer there’s a Pro Series CB Soloist, Floyd and HT

[@willshuler7014]

I picked up a Jackson js-2 concert series bass for $250 which is the lowest I’ve seen them go for. Definitely worth it but a little pricey I agree but most definitely worth it I’ve never been more proud to own an instrument in my life

[@JaxJordan35]

whoah, when did he turn into Dave Mustainr

[@JaxJordan35]

*Mustaine

[@tk4x431]

Jordan Gallaher that's what happens when your in Megadeth.

[@tk4x431]

Jordan Gallaher have you noticed that in common with every single past and current Megadeth member?

[@MrTiotiokan]

Jordan Gallaher hah man )) this is the first thing what came in to my mind)))

[@AGore88]

I love Chris Broderick, and he's always be one of my favorite guitarists of all time, so I dont mean to be a smart ass but, 1:21 are we entirely sure that's a flame maple top? I could've sworn it was a quilted maple top

[@jacksonlewis4365]

the dude can play and the axe sounds killer!

[@replicant8532]

There are few very interesting concepts to this guitar, cool. But Chris come on, bridge with more mid range? :) I have never heard anyone saying "you have such fizzy tone, you need to change your bridge!" :)

[@COBHC8890]

Jackson Dominion is still my personal fav.

[@AllenHarrison]

This guitar would look awesome with fanned frets on it

[@tommacdonald9914]

Chris is the master of 7 string. Great guitar an setup

[@jimihendrix1650]

7:56 is awesome

[@riverstone5994]

Gotta track down one of these now

[@jcdova29]

Performance and style!! I don’t think I am good enough to play Chris’s signature series lol. I bet Chris would destroy a Chapman stick. I would love to see that.

[@arvindpuryag8515]

Rage is an excellent band. Their solos are filled with killswotch effects which I’m sure, sound very good

[@jisoofanboymy9543]

his skills so good but i heard some people hate the sound of him for me it's ok he is one of my guitar hero by the way

[@Colin.W]

Hopefully be getting mine next month after being pushed twice. Man, there are no videos of the ht6/ht7 on KZbin besides this video.

[@2free2snakes]

I didn't know who Chris Broderick was, I only knew his sigs were on sale at Thomann (october 2020 as of writing), before I went in to this video. He seems like a solid player who knows what he wants. Now I don't know if I should cop a hardtail Broderick sixstring or not.

[@MaestroHide]

someone call ambulance cause this man is sick!

[@robertocarlo624]

MEGADEATHHH

[@Superstacco]

What's that thing he's using to keep his pick in place? Does anyone know?

[@travisrehder2888]

Pick clip. chrisbroderick.com/blog/store/

[@fivefingerfullprice3403]

Does the Pro Series HT 7 have stainless steel frets?

[@UpwardNinja]

Unfortunately no

[@instrumentalist28]

his bridge pickup just sounds like a dimarzio super 3, which is one of my favorite pickups....i wish dimarzio sold it, as there are no super 3 pickups for 7 guitars.....although my sd nazgul sounds very similar

[@dehumanizer21]

My next Jackson guitar will be this! Just wish it was more affordable :(

[@berkekaan2808]

you can buy the import versions.they are pretty solid too.they cost like 800-850 euros.they have fr 1000 series and dimarzios.

[@matthewpaluch777]

IMHO Chris is this generation's Randy Rhoads-

[@A_Final_Hit]

Except he's had none of the influence on metal that Randy had.

[@sashingopaul3111]

sevenman96 Everyone would get inspired more from Megadeth with Symphony of Destruction and Holy Wars

[@jackburton2033]

Hope to ser these jazz techniques in Art of Defiance next álbum

[@jgmopar]

Do the USA select have a logo that isn't blurry silk screen, I still cant get over the logo on my newer Jackson import not USA. it bugs me so much I want to paint over it. The guitar itself is awesome and plays like a dream

[@JacksonAxe]

USA Selects have a mother of pearl logo. Which import do you have?

[@jgmopar]

I have the SLATXMGQ3-6, Oh mother of pearl would look nice. I am guessing since mine is import and good price a few things have to be sacrificed. Im just weird when it comes to headstock logo's and I think I over examine things.

[@JacksonAxe]

jgmopar Not sure how the import logos are done, but I've seen some older USA logos with fuzzy edges. This was before the MOP logos...back when they were screened on. My 2011 Japanese DKMGT has a logo with sharp edges. Perhaps yours just got by quality control? I haven't paid attention to the newer logos to be honest.

[@sashingopaul3111]

Jackson should make a JS series guitar with the CB Soloist shape. good looks and and sound at an affordable price

[@ab.8510]

guys got guns

[@francescob.3019]

what pick is he using? I want that

[@jeremebonesaw]

Passive pick ups?

[@ryanwilson538]

Whats the song he's playing at 0:55 ?

[@ghostninja2041]

I had a buddy who had one of those Gio cheap Ibanez guitars..... he put Fishman Fluence pickups in it..... sounds fucking amazing! Wood doesn’t matter with tone.... just a way to advertise to get idiots to pay 1000’s $

[@marike1100]

Bull shit. Part of the reason a Les Paul sounds so good and the notes sustain so well is the dense, heavy mahagony body. But by all means, enjoy your cheap poplar Gio toy.

[@megadethdudeluke]

nice

[@ScotianBlooded]

those are 12 in radius i need one now hate compound radius guitars

[@peepsdub]

What is that thing holding his pick on his thumb called?

[@spokes1355]

Finger pick for the thumb

[@sashingopaul3111]

somehow the Soloist HT-7 is more expensive than the Soloist 7 with a Floyd Rose

[@scottbaker8018]

So stainless steel frets don't wear down? Why don't all guitars use them?

[@Silverado5150MKII]

It brings up the price on the instrument, so keep it affordable most companies don't really use them lol.

[@thomascoolberth2648]

So the guitar wears out after 5 years of heavy use and then you have to buy a new one.

[@Erowens98]

They do wear down , just slower, they are also harder to restore once worn, i do think stainless steel is superior, but its not a miracle.

[@WrathWithinMe]

Stainless steel does wear but in a slower pace, if you use the traditional nickel strings. Using stainless steel strings should mean that you're frets lasts just like regular frets. The reason why such few guitars use them is the cost, they destory tools and takes longer time to work with meaning the price for the guitar will increase. I've seen custom shops charge 300-500 dollars extra for stainless steel frets. Also one reason a lot of amature players don't want stainless steel frets is because they wear off your strings really fast. Not a big deal for a pro player that changes strings after every gig. But can be a problem for the amature players.

[@Erowens98]

WrathWithinMe I would think stainless steel frets would make strings last longer because after buffing they would stay shiny and less abrasive for longer than a softer alloy, though once they lose there shine i guess they would be tougher on your strings than traditional alloys, But it takes longer to lose the shine. Polishing your frets is something anyone can do whenever it needs being done though. Am i wrong?

[@dynomyte0jam]

Did he mean to say quilted maple top instead of flamed?

[@Jakeman90210]

when will you talk to gus g

[@sashingopaul3111]

cone he did

[@edgelordofmordor]

fundamental note a bit more. Now I know why I like high mids for soloing

[@dylangreen9819]

edgelord of mordor when you are plugged in, it doesn't do much. acoustically, Tone changes slightly. an acoustic guitar is the only thing that will have major tone change with different woods.

[@edgelordofmordor]

The Ghost of the Flying Dutchman high mids make each and every note sound distinct and u get a cleaner tone for high speed pick attacks. And it's more to do with the amp setting rather than the wood. It sometimes gets kinda difficult to distinguish between a mahogany and an alder body electric guitar on high distortion

[@dylangreen9819]

edgelord of mordor exactly. wood can only make a slight difference

[@dethbridge8755]

Is it just me or does chris kinda look like a young David Bowie?? 👨‍🎤

[@boostuse]

Grey Haven

[@Deffrall]

5:26 is kills. Really.

[@konanarcher]

wait his fretboard is stainless steel?

[@georgelopezdaloca0868]

No, the frets are.

[@keolahutchinson7687]

8:54 😈👍

[@5urg3x]

I love these guitars but god damn the no inlays thing trips me out.

[@saltpeter7429]

That is driving me nuts too. In the market for a axe, but alot of them are without fretmarkers now, or only at the top. I love the shark fin inlays, but it seems they only accompany floyds.

[@VexxJam]

It's awesome but 4k is a lot

[@richtamura9638]

I want long guitar fingers like that.. I will put my fingers on the rack!

[@tmt7912]

When you use ibanez ...its cool...now use jackson its cool...next use ESP..its cool...ha..ha...ha

[@chriskrausesmovie]

Imagine if he played them in megadeth

[@Dimeocide]

I'd say that c

[@arpegio88]

To me he was always at his musical best in Jag Panzer NOT "MD" or "A-O-D".

[@TheHorn123456]

Why can't they put that headstock on their V's? The Slanted headstock they have on now looks awkward.

[@GunsnRosesfan2012]

I hate this headstock. The 6 inline is classic for the king v. And if you want that headstock then check on line for a kv2t.

[@TrevBec]

Quilt tho.

[@merrittmussorgsky2937]

I’m pretty sure any guitar company can do all of those things lol and why would you want an12in radius??? Flatter the better man! I’m all about 20in radius all day Holdsworth style :) but to each his own.

[@MrAlexhollins]

Tone wood. Nah.

[@marike1100]

It's funny when weekenders think they know more than pros who eat, sleep and live guitar.

[@javichino6371]

Stop with that noise Chris whe only wanted to see the guitar.....xD

[@Malchotheracoon]

Is that Stalin

[@multimike2030]

had me until the tonewood comment

[@Thirteen31Music]

He is technically an amazing player but for me personally his playing is just robotic and lacks feel.

[@FaithfulReasoning]

Why people like those ugly headstocks

[@remnant24]

Did he dye his hair? That's so unmetal.
