Niclas Engelin Rakete
Niclas Engelin Rakete
Melodic death metal icon Niclas Engelin of The Halo Effect has been crafted a second signature guitar by the legendary Czech guitar cult brand Jolana Guitars.
The Jolana Niclas Engelin Rakete is based on an iconic design from the 1950s and 1960s — but it goes far beyond mere revival. While honoring the bold, unmistakable aesthetics of that golden era, the Rakete propels the classic concept into an entirely new sphere.
With its striking retro-futuristic silhouette and modern performance upgrades, this instrument perfectly reflects Niclas’s powerful yet melodic playing style. Vintage attitude meets contemporary precision — built for today’s stages, engineered for uncompromising tone.
The first 25 instruments are delivered with individually numbered and hand-signed A5 certificates personally signed by Niclas himself — making them true collector’s pieces.
But that’s not all. Each of these guitars comes factory set up with Dunlop DEN1156DB (11–56) strings in Drop C tuning — exactly the way Niclas plays them. From the very first chord, players experience the same string tension, feel, and crushing tonal punch that define his unmistakable sound.
Additionally, a second set of Dunlop DEN1156DB strings is included for later use, along with three Dunlop Ultex Sharp picks featuring exclusive The Halo Effect and Niclas Engelin graphics — exactly like the master uses on stage.
The Niclas Engelin Rakete is not just a tribute to history — it is the next evolution of it.
