The Solana 6 stands out from the pack thanks to its nylon strings, which offers the player a sweet, mellow tone akin to a classical guitar, but with the bright undertones of a banjo. The versatility of the Solana 6 is rounded off with a piezo pickup that sits directly under the patented East Indian rosewood bridge plate, formerly seen only on Deering’s Phoenix 6-string banjo.
The bridge plate is placed underneath the hand crafted Deering bridge and is designed to even out the effects of the string vibration, resulting in an increased sustain, decrease in ‘boominess’, and less feedback allowing the player more freedom in a live performing situation when partnered with the piezo pickup.
