I have been interested in several of Schecter's guitars for a while now. They are beautiful and sound great. I bought the guitar from Texas Music Emporium. ( Across the street from Guitar Center North in Houston ) These guys are really cool. They beat everyones price by far and gave better service. I PAID $ 499 FOR A BRAND NEW SCHECTER C-1 ELITE! How could I pass that up? Sorry everybody, but don't feel bad, the guitar is definately worth the $ 630 that most of you pay.

This is the prettiest, most comfortable, best feeling guitar that I have owned yet! ( And I've owned about 15 different guitars of 10 different brands. ) This guitar just fits like a glove. I seem to think less when I play this guitar and just respond to how the music sounds. The fit and finish is second to none. I have picked up guitars costing well over 2K that wasn't finished any nicer. The tone is super! Deep, throaty but not bassy. My main guitar for the past 11 years has been my Gibson Les Paul Standard, and now I find myself grabbing my Schecter instead. Comming from me, that is a huge statement!
For the money, there is none nicer! No way!

The beautiful black finish shows finger prints very very easily. Ha, like that is a real problem.

The body style and head stock are awesome. Almost timeless style. Mahogany body, neck, abalone inlay outlining the entire body, neck and headstock, shows sophistication not show off. The all together package with its set neck and twenty five and a half inch scale.... super. Sound quality and ease of tunning is the best I've come across yet. Action is super, and drop tunings are no problem.

I'm recently divorced, but I'm not lonely anymore. I've got a new girl now! Ha!
If I could find a women that looks, feels and sounds like my Schecter C-1 Elite, I'd never leave the house again. When you are done reading this, go buy one.
I have friends that own the compitition guitars, ( Ibanez, E.S.P. and others....) and I'm not nocking those great instruments; however, I have a Prettier, better playing, better sounding more trouble free guitar for less cash!
