S by Solar, the extension-brand of the Solar Guitars company founded by Swedish guitarist Ola Englund, has introduced two new XB models: the tremolo equipped XB4.61FRBRG and non-tremolo XB4.6C.
Both guitars continue the S by Solar mission of delivering quality instruments at entry level prices and expanding the accessibility and reach of the Solar style shapes and metal attitude.
A carbon black XB4.6C with two humbuckers is complimented by the XB4.61FRBRG, a blood red colored guitar with a single pickup and Floyd Rose trem.
XB4.61FRBRG carries a street price of $599 and features a bolt-on neck with contoured access neck joint, 24.75” scale, 22 frets, 10-46 strings, maple neck, stained rosewood fretboard with mini-dots and jumbo frets. Available in Blood Red gloss finish, its Mahogany body has a Floyd Rose tremolo, a single high-output ceramic humbucker pickup, and Volume and Tone knobs, with smartly placed non-obtrusive rear jack access.

Company Vice President and product developer, Joe Delaney explains, “The X shape has become one of the most popular Solar shapes, so we worked hard to create a representation of that for S by Solar. The bolt-on neck joint is highly contoured and tailored for great feel and full access, and they look killer!”
