About Chris Rörland
Chris Rörland is a lead guitarist of the Swedish power-metal band Sabaton. In late September 2026 Jackson announced the Pro Series Signature Chris Rörland SL7 Soloist, the brand's first signature model built with him: a seven-string with a neck-through maple build, a Soloist body in Satin Black, an ebony fretboard with a compound radius, EMG 81-7H and 85-7H pickups and a Floyd Rose 1000 Series seven-string recessed tremolo.
The 26.5-inch scale is meant to keep tension stable in low tunings, and Rörland said he chose it for extra stability with his lower tunings. The volume knob was moved out of the way and the three-way toggle sits closer to the neck so he can change pickups with his middle finger during a solo.
Retail prices vary widely between listings, from roughly $1,600 to far higher figures, so check an authorized dealer. I found no confirmed information on his amplifier or effects setup. Guitar Radar follows Jackson signature models.
