Galaxy V2 S

The Galaxy V2 S is a stripped-down, high-performance metal guitar built for speed, precision, and consistency—without visual excess. Designed as a fully realized, highest-spec instrument, the V2 S delivers the same fast response and ergonomic comfort as the Galaxy V2, focused entirely on function.

Built for players who prioritize performance over presentation, the Galaxy V2 S removes decorative tops and finishes in favor of a direct, purposeful build. Every contour, measurement, and component is optimized to reduce resistance between player and instrument, resulting in a guitar that feels immediate, fluid, and effortless at high tempo.

Built to Soleil’s highest specification, the Galaxy V2 S features a black limba body with a durable natural oil finish, providing a balanced tonal foundation with tight lows, focused mids, and clear articulation. A Black Limba neck, reinforced with carbon fiber rods and secured by a two-way stainless steel heel-adjust truss rod, delivers excellent stiffness and long-term stability while keeping weight and fatigue to a minimum.

The neck is shaped with Soleil’s custom asymmetrical C–D profile, featuring a fuller C on the bass side and a flatter D on the treble side. This geometry follows the natural mechanics of the hand, giving the thumb a solid anchor for fast runs and legato while keeping the fretting hand relaxed during long sessions. The result is a neck that feels fast, stable, and predictable without feeling thin or fragile.

A Wenge fretboard, 24 Jescar jumbo stainless steel frets, and 25.5” scale length create a smooth, durable playing surface built for accuracy, endurance, and aggressive technique. Luminlay blue side markers ensure visibility on dark stages, while understated white mother-of-pearl dot inlays keep the look clean and functional.

Hardware is straightforward and road-ready. Hipshot open-gear locking tuners, a Hipshot 6-string fixed bridge, Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, Graph Tech TUSQ string trees, and Grover strap locks provide tuning stability, direct string response, and long-term reliability. The control cavity is fully shielded for noise-free performance.

Electronics are tight, aggressive, and controlled. A set of aged Seymour Duncan Alpha/Omega pickups delivers fast attack, focused low end, and excellent note separation under high gain—ideal for modern metal, technical riffing, and articulate lead work.

Controls are simple and dependable: 1 volume with coil split, 1 tone, and a 3-way blade switch, wired with CTS components and an Orange Drop capacitor for clarity and durability.
