Solar Guitars by Ola Englund

That Canadian guy who yells a lot did a "review" of a cheapo Solar (not the "S by Solar") and it was a really nice gloss red and $599. $599 is about what I think a hardtail Solar is worth, so that might be one worth taking a flyer on. There are worse ways to waste 599.

I wonder if they cherry-picked him a good one. That and he tends to be extremely lenient towards people that give him free shit.

But FWIW I know someone that recently got a S by Solar and he loves it. Kinda makes me wanna get a V or E just to have a pointy guitar for the sake of having a pointy guitar.

I must say that as much as i don't care about the guy who yells a lot, or Solar, or Ola, i must admit that the Candy apple red guitar in question made me a great impression. The 3 lousy pics in the site don't give it justice. If the 12th fret was clean like the rest of the fretboard I would have bought one already. It is however very possible that the guitar was cherry picked, given the way it was packaged....
P. S. I also noticed that it has 5 way switch on a 2 humbuckers, which is.... interesting...

I have, but the ones I've played were either HSH or HSS.

I don't know who he is (like most Solar endorsers) but I fucking hate racing stripes!! (Except on a Fender Mustang, that's where they only belong!!)
