Englund announced the launch of Solar Guitars in early 2017. Utilizing Ola's extensive knowledge and experience, Solar Guitars is focusing on the needs of the rock/metal touring and home recording guitar player as well as beginner and guitar enthusiasts in general.
"It has always been all about designing a modern, sleek and simply elegant guitar that is easy to play and sounding absolutely awesome with any gear or studio recording being thrown at me. I finally created what, for me, has become the ultimate songwriting and touring companion," says Ola Englund.
Solar Guitars unveiled the E1.6 Jensen, a signature model crafted for Patrik Jensen of The Haunted and Witchery. He has issued the following statement:
"With my new Solar E1.6 Jensen guitar, I finally have an instrument that combines all the hardware features I expect from an exceptional guitar. Not only does the guitar look amazing, but it also plays with such ease that I can fully focus on getting the most out of the songs I play, rather than having to focus on getting the guitar to do what I want..."
