Jackson Guitars has introduced a groundbreaking signature model for Roman Ibramkhalilov, the renowned guitarist of the Ukrainian metal band Jinjer. Crafted to withstand the rigors of intense live performances, the Pro Series Signature Roman Ibramkhalilov MDK HT6 Baritone boasts a distinctive body shape specifically designed to meet Ibramkhalilov’s demanding playing style.
A Four-Year Labor of Love for Metal Mastery
Known for their innovative and heavy sound, JinJer has garnered a dedicated following in the progressive metal scene. As the band’s sole guitarist, Ibramkhalilov’s preference for baritone guitars influenced the development of this high-performance instrument.
Featuring a unique body shape and high-performance specs, this signature model is built for metal players seeking a powerful and versatile instrument.

A Bold New Design
The heart of the guitar lies in its unconventional body shape, which took four years to perfect. Ibramkhalilov describes it as “unique” and “perfect for shows, studio, and everything in between.” The ash body and bolt-on maple/wenge neck deliver the articulation and attack essential for metal guitarists.

Other key features include an ebony fingerboard with Luminlay side dots, Gotoh 510FX-6 bridge, Jackson die-cast locking tuners, and a custom set of Jackson RI1 humbuckers.

Built for the Stage
Designed with touring musicians in mind, the Pro Series Signature Roman Ibramkhalilov MDK HT6 Baritone is equipped to handle the demands of the road. However, the lack of a hard case might be a drawback for some players. Additionally, the Korean manufacturing and $1,499 price tag could be factors to consider for potential buyers.
Despite these points, the guitar’s innovative design, high-quality components, and baritone scale length make it a compelling option for metal enthusiasts seeking a powerful and versatile instrument.
