All user reviews for the Schecter C-1 Classic

Features: see below
A small pet lowers the note.

USE

The neck is super enjoyable however I do not get it remarked on the large round, thick, AC is undeniable, but broad, nah not really.
Without being "special shredder designed" it allows a very good speed especially good grip it offers.
The weight is super balanced and excellent rgonomie (though some think who regret the absence of chamfer)

SONORITS

As shown before, the highlight of the guitar is still very far away from its versatility and sound quality. Truly Exceptional
Compare this guitar with a term or nearly lp price is absurd. But then his level, sorry ... these guitars are playing in the same CATEGORY (it probably dplaira those claqu quite a tune for the made in us)
nothing I dteste

NOTICE GLOBAL

This will do 6 months that I used the high dose, and always with the same pleasure
The choice taiut easy: either pay me this correnne or wait and pay me a lp std, now I really see that I would have been wrong to expect.

Well I've been looking and test playing this guitar for three months and then I got a student loan (uh-oh) and went out and did something stupid like buying it at guitar center for 750 after case and acsessories.

Oh man, where to start? The beautiful design catches anybodys eye and brings lots of compliments. It has a good design for easy and quick playing, carries out notes with great sustain, and screams on solos and crunches on rythym.

Nothing at all.

Every detail on this guitar has been payed close attention to from the designers at Schecter, it has a good solid body and is worth alot more then what i payed for it. They did an excellent job with this guitar.

This guitar is definately worth the buck, but be ready because you wont ever want to play anything else after this work of art.

Local music store for $700.00

I have been playing for around 16 years and this is the smoothest neck my fingers have ever wrapped around. The action is nice and low with no fret buzz. The sustain brings a tear to my eye! Every note is heard and will ring as long as you want it to without feedback.
The looks are absolutely stunning. Not one flaw with the paint or neck. No sharp ridges at the frets. The vine of life inlay is beautiful and accents the guitar extremely nice. Everything about this guitar is great. Absolutely top notch craftsmanship. Just as good as any American made guitar on the market.

Nothing...Well I wishI could have conned the store out of a free case!

Absoulutely top notch. This is a high quality instrument at an entry level price.
More compliments on this guitars looks than with my Gibson LP or Charvel San Dimas.

An absolute must buy! I am extremely happy with this instrument. It is now my first ax of choice! Buy this guitar!

This was purchased as a gift (cool huh?) at Drum City Guitarland out of Wheat Ridge, Colorado. They beat anyones prices on Schecter and are great guys to deal with. I had been scoping them out when they hit the market originally and talked my fiance into buing it as a bithday present. She paid around $650.

I absolutely love evrything about it. The playability, sustain, tonal qualities and visual aspects. I have a '91 Gibson Firebird V, a '91 Mockingbird, an old strat well you get the idea...but I use the Schecter almost exclusively.

The only issue I had was with the pots. For some reason Schecter installs linear pots (or at least they did 2 years ago). I had the 3 pots (and resistors) replaced with 500k audio's for around $40.
Thats it!

Its definitely solid, mahogany body/maple top, neck-thru with grovers. You really have to play it. The Duncans' are extremely responsive to the touch, and can overdrive depending on how hard you pick.

Ive played for 30 years. This is the nicest axe Ive come across, and Ill put it up against any of them out there.

My wife picked this guitar up for me at Guitar Center after I had been looking at it for about three months. Got a great deal on it for 650.00

This guitar surpasses all guitars on the market right now. I used to work for GC and know the quality that some guitar makers are known for. The neck through body, cream binding, arch-top, grover tuners, and the inlay on the neck makes this guitar absolutely stunning to look at. The pick-ups are an added surprise as I usually swap stock pick ups out for something more custom. These pick ups are great. Just put on a set of heavy strings and tune low and your in for a crunch fest that you wont forget. The guitar feels great to play and no matter what you run it through it will sound great. Schecter is definatley on the rise and people owe it to themselves to check out the quality on this guitar. The price that these guitars go for almost make one feel guilty. Awsome guitar.

Without a doubt, there is nothing that I would change about this guitar.

1st class superb quality. Solid feel and design with all of the class of any guitar that one would pay a couple of grand for.

Absolute best guitar that money can buy. After playing mine I would pay twice what I payed for another Schecter.

Due to playing Classical for years, I decided to spring for a Christmas gift for myself. Guitar Center matched price on this $900(Retail) for $630.

Solid "neck through body" It's heavier than Fenders, so that I know I am playing something. I like the Pickups. 5-Way switch. The body style and color. I love the adjustable bridge, although it hasn't needed any customizing yet.

Not a darn thing I can think of.

Great finish. Solid construction. Nothing buzzes. It's very easy to play with great feel.

Highly suggest everyone to ask about a Schecter. I can guarantee it will make you think about quality and price.

UTILIZATION

What can I say? This is without doubt an incredible axe! Anytime I've played this out, all I usually hear about afterwards from players and non-players alike is how pretty this guitar is. The inlay is ornate, over the top but still classy, and stunningly beautiful! The neck joint is fantastic - I can reach any fret without hindrance. Balance is also great on this guitar - it's about 7 pounds, and it rests on the strap very well, with no neck diving or drooping.

SOUNDS

The pickups, again, are one of my favorite sets. I've reviewed quite a few guitars out there with this pickup combination, and I'm always extremely pleased with the results. The bridge is bold and bright, yet not too aggressive, and the neck is ultra smoooooooooooth. The 5 way Mega switch yields some nice variety, adding the "in between" Strat-style tones that are great for funk, country, or fusion. And of course, the timbre is great for rock and metal when plugged into a screaming stack. This C1 Classic is a guitar that feels at home playing any style of music.

OVERALL OPINION

This guitar is amazing! In all aspects - performance, sound, cosmetics, build quality - this guitar excels. My hands absolutely love the crisp playability of this neck. Its distinctive appearance will definitely get noticed at gigs, and the tone will be spot on. The C1 Classic comes highly recommended from me, especially for the price!

- 24 frets
- Handle al in Saddle
- Mahogany body with table Saddle pommelbr /> - pitch 25.5 "
- Tone Pros and rope bridge traversing for more sustain.
- Grover mcaniques
- Pickups: Seymour Duncan SH-4 (JB), SH-2N Jazz
- Slecteur 5 Mega Switch positions
- ... 'Tain, it is too good!!
- No one feels that touch the quality of the wood
- Perfect finish

UTILIZATION

- Round super enjoyable (I played before on Ibanez, and I find the maneuverability of the Schecter dconcertante)
- ACCS in acute nickel (24 frets requires)

SOUNDS

- Unplugged, the guitar sounds great dj!
- Great sustain and good harmonic

- Before I needed to put a lot of effects for a nice (and again) clear sound
now -> everything on the micro SH-2N, and no effect is happiness

Want to sound funky? And presto, you change position and you Splitt goes!

- Or, for heavy distortion, there are well diffrent notes (or strings)
BRIEF THAT OF HAPPINESS!

OVERALL OPINION

The blue SCHECTER C1 Classic is the most sober. The red does not like the site and gives an impression of plutt brown ... Finally, gillou me saying he had never seen two the same color red! Otherwise, the orange is nice but a little too flashy my gout!

Otherwise, this guitar is a killer. I had fun back to my old Ibanez, but will not ...
And Dunlop strap-locks fall like butter!

CONCLUSION: for 846 euros (uh, ... gillou home), you have a hyper-versatile guitar (I play mtal, funk ...), super nice and especially not you swing 30% of for the brand (not to mention Gibson or Fender ...).
What you pay, you have it.

(I'm hot for this opinion ke go in the thread "The guitars are great"
the only lack of this and the abscence of schecter tremolo

UTILIZATION

The handle is probably talking about the mesh I've ever seen

Ergonomic forms against which there is a weight consequant but I think it's good to have psyckologiquement a heavy guitar
Finally, there are more than sustain a ibanez rg 1550

SOUNDS

I play mainly death (COBDIR, Satyricon, Sinergy, Opeth), but also enorment of blue rock (Led Zeppelin, Who, Jimi Hendrix,-M-) and I use it for a Fender hotrod deluxe and ds1 and a jcm 900 digitech rp 200 with and I must say I'm ke filled by this guitar

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months I appreciate a little pressure in this guitar tt put a hand on me a look that starts lacing we do not care but its sound is c and probably the best quality / price ratio in c the price

Guitar made in Korea but trs good finish even when
Microphones (two doubles) are Seymour Duncan SH2 (neck) and SH4 (Bridge)
5-way switch (two split positions) for the volume Tone versatilitbr /> tailpiece and bridge crossing pro tone to sustain that provides

UTILIZATION

The handle is pretty but not too pais (at least more than on my Ibanez, but there is no evil), hard dcrire, but in all cases trs enjoyable with a varnish that slides tr s good.
it is a race driver, so Access in acute is perfect, until the 24th box, a little inclined as the Les Paul (and it is rgl hair cell).
The form gives a trs stratode comfortable, with good dcoupe stomachal
For sound, eh ben c IMMEDIATE, it sends a branch and direct the wood!

The bridge pickup is in turn much more incisive and biting (TheJB forces) and in Exelle distos with trs good DEFINITIONS
The positions offer sounds intermdiaires typs single coils that give a good overall versatility of the guitar (a is not a good strat qd meme)
In short: WHAT TO HAPPINESS

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it last month at the US (helping the dollar), APRS long visits in stores and on the forums. I never thought buying a guitar without trying it but I did and I am more than satisfied. It is really what I wanted and the price I paid and I think the report qualitprix is ​​unbeatable.
So YES I do it again this choice with his eyes closed

Schecter made in Corea
Mahogany body, neck-table Saddle Pomel (25.5 ") Saddle / Walnut button palisandre
24 jumbo frets
meca Groover
Tune O 'Matic tailpiece through
1 volume, 1 tone, 5-way switch
two humbuckers Seymour Duncan (Jazz in neck and JB in bridge)
Nut in plastoc really makes a Cheap cot from the rest of the guitar

Price gnralement public observation: 1070

UTILIZATION

For the form of stratabound it is no problem
The neck profile I would say close enough to the C button with flat fender like a Gibson, of all good.
Furthermore, it is therefore accessible through aus acute ... haaa it is optimum.
The weight, about 4.5 kg, not what is made heavier.
The meca are prcises and not move, the knobs of effective quality trs.

A good point is the handle that the varnish does not stick too when just a sweaty paws

Against it by default There's some minor finishing as the junctions of Bindings key and head (you can go) and the frets trs not always fit properly, unless an acceptable scratching coming flirt with 1000

SOUNDS

It must be able to play without any constraints of any

Handle on the mic, it sounds clear to the fte, and crunches (the big distos it means) is prcis, soft. The arpges out well, we like a good little tapper blues crunch of a good lightweight

On the mic bridge, beautiful enough fat distos insured, but JB (like most Duncan) tends to boost the mids hy not always enjoyable on sentences too jittery disto pushed e

The tone knob from being effective trs, coupled with 5 positions for Plitt's mics, it goes everywhere.

Truly a versatile scraper, and ultimately without exacerbating a personality, almost bland in fact closer to that of a PRS Gibson in philosophy (and I'm a fan of this grain of rockailleux Gibson)

OVERALL OPINION

Finish: plutt is good, even if there are two three small default (junction of the neck binding and that of head, nut plastoc not great Intgr frets not great lim es)
The embedding of the tree of life in the handle is in a great fact, ca nickel attached is smooth, no hang ca (not like in many Epi or blocks are poorly inlay), better than the Corts. The table is beautiful.
Default only really well known, the nut plastoc in black and ugly gift I would not give much in the long run, but be replaced by a graphite or bone in the first ca rglage not cost much.
One of the best short Qualit prices I've seen so far, is the old view.

Then the wood comes from Canada, is carved in California and sent to the core assembly before being expdi r (Wow, everything?!) O it Verify comes to use.
a technical point of view:
-Neck-Rabl (so it passes through the body from side to side)
24-rosewood boxes decorated with a tree of life pearl (? Verify) really beautiful
-2 Spices mahogany glue around the handle forms the body, all with a Saddle ond table as a tablecloth ... trs nice table by the way (warf warf warf)
- Seymour Duncan SH4 and SH2, controlled by a 5 positions, 1 volume 1 tonalitbr /> tailpiece-crossing, genre y'avait not sustain enough ...
basically, it's a. ..

UTILIZATION

The neck is a joy, Access in acute than in the absence of simple heel ... good, it is a bit heavy, but nothing mchant, and what a sound!! I dveloppe ....

SOUNDS

L I cracked ... not only is it beautiful, but most is the sound I was looking for my group (influences A Perfect Circle, Deftones, Nostromo, Muse, Erik Truffaz ...) Tested in dsordre: Marshall JCM 2000 head Orangecrunch (a limit SERIES) Peavey Classic 30 and bandit 112, mesa v twin rack peavey classic 50/50 ENGL cabinet, engl fireball, thunder, powerball ... and I think that's all (that dj a lot tell me) and the well is we realize that the amp is a long way to do it all ... since y 'is not one that sounded wrong with this scratch! even the bandit 112 ... level sound, but prcis sh4 is fat, I like: D, sh2 is warm, round and velvety I LOVE, and splits are super INTERESTED play, especially in the sh2 clean. I use the scratch for almost everything, especially knowing that I need a clean sound than clean, smooth and warm and a noooooooooorme crunch actually a big distortion in the volume but with little gain trs. ..
I do not use effects, and then the tendon ducts con tripper for (my last P'ti pleasure hach ​​tremolo with lots of short delay rptition, distortion and boosts on bottle neck .. . well, must have the strong stomach and the only sound that I like a little less, it would split the sh4, but the Motes I ....

OVERALL OPINION

I'm in love ... dj owner of an ibanez 7 strings Di Marzio high-end and a gibson sg standard, I compltement crack .... when I see the finish of the gibson sg and every problem I've had in conjunction with, well seriousness, the "made in us" thing, I think so ... o mag I provided (baba quimper rock! baba powa!) reu of jackson us, not over the nut silent, the MCA is my sg nazes after 6 months, gibson les paul standard with a friend that oxidizes more than my bike in the rain all winter, the prs 2000 that the sound of ibanez 500, ben long live the core. I come drool less than before on the custom shop esp ... what was seen for less than 1000 to baba, ben made in the us, it's over, I m'achterai another schecter plutt one who Rican coterai triple. scratch that, I love it. and yet, I have tried many ...

A beautiful guitar, the finish is impeccable, the embedding of the tree in the handle is perfect for the color I was pleasantly surprised on receiving the color was much darker than the pictures on the site Schecter, originally ordered it in blue is more blue / green as emerald blue see

UTILIZATION

The handle is all that is most pleasant, thick enough to play consistent and thin enough to obtain a high speed game so great
Access to acute is a pure joy to play we susprend extremely low over the beast in a solo feast
The weight is correct although a little more light would have been better, but given the good sustain and the sound you get one is almost glad to have back pain

SOUNDS

I use a combo Engl thunder50 then guide + rock / metal so I guess on a different amp you could get a clean one or more crystalline distortion of the most powerful Death / metal eg
For sound is incredible is not really all played well all I said, the metal (if the amp'm behind), rock, punk, reagge, blues (enjoyable crunch )....
Well obviously Needless to say, the clean is not comparable to clean that one could have on a stratovolcano and the distortion is not ESP but now the guitar is the most versatile I had the opportunity to test.
For the big sound the Seymour Duncan bridge ensures max, the distortion rock to big sound ideal for very heavy metal, small negative split of this microphone is essentially useless as the sound seems to me just got used to my taste
For the neck pickup is also good at all, whether the split is ideal for the game in accordance with clean, or arpeggio humbucker for clean and great for solos distos!
I remove a split point for the bridge pickup which is useless in my case

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 months, what I like most is that this guitar is the kind of guitar that, when placed on its stand will make you want to play, when you look at it as if it called us, the difference is that some guitar, warbling sound when plugged connect to its plumage, we are not disappointed, imagine you are approaching a beautiful girl (or handsome guy) in a bar and you realize in talking + to be in that barrel that girl is also very smart, funny and interresting .... it happens not every day
For the price I bought it (the guitar at 920 euros Woodbrass and I'm not disappointed given that I already try 300 euros more expensive guitars that sounded less than the schecter!
I would do this choice a thousand times!

04/09/04:
Guitar corréenne ...
As mentioned earlier, 24 jumbo frets, Duncan JB humbucker 2 '/ 59' splitabble thanks to a selector 5 posititons ...
Sets Tone Pro bridge.
Driver Channel 5 parts thinner than my squier affinity, but wider (a treat)!

A good finish, which leaves some slight flaws but hey, not too bad!

Rating 9 / 10

EDIT 20/12/06: Nothing really has noted, it is still good agreement, honestly, you can just regret a little plastoc binding of the handle. Otherwise it is 100% nickel ...

UTILIZATION

04/09/04:
Handle very nice ... Not necessarily super fast (jumbo frets and neck wide enough forces) but I knew by buying it was not a guitar shredder special (although it is possible to do it anyway) ... Otherwise, it is a form stratabound / PRS, very easy to play, it was quickly at ease ...

Access to acute is impeccable, one begins to play with the 24th box with ease!

The guitar is well balanced, it is quite heavy, sustain Hell (neck-), a pure wonder!

Rating 9 / 10

EDIT 20/12/06: Regarding the sustain of hell, I moderate my comments a bit. Sustain excellent ^^...
I will soon make me do a Start 'at Warmoth for two shovels extremely complementary. But honestly, the only thing we can blame it clean sounds to be a little go anywhere without particular color (nice because versatility and damage both when seeking something more distinctive).
I do not change the note, it's heavy!

SOUNDS

04/09/04:
Then ... I'm about to ***, I thought to keep my squier for clean sounds that were not too ugly bah eh, no! Outside the Squier, the versatility of the Schecter C1 Classic is amazing, two humbuckers pechus well, and intermediate positions in Fender'iens to fade ...

In short, one word: versatility, but not bad, or is that way, no no no, everything here is worth taking!
So .. me ... I took all ...

10/10

EDIT 20/12/06: See above!

OVERALL OPINION

04/09/04:
I use it for one week and a half like that, it made me do a little balance with little to rush ...

I am captivated by its beauty, its sounds, its sutain short, all qualitées ....

I put an overall score of 9 / 10 was due to a default light finish but if you want the versatility at an unbeatable price (730 euros imported from the EU -> price including taxes and transportation), there no more ...

Voila! Thank you for reading!
Good 'day!

Overall Rating 9.8/10 -> 9 on the ballot!

EDIT 20/12/06: 9.8 is closer to 10 than 9, so I put 10 ... If I change the scratch, it will be blue with a PRS tremolo and birds! Otherwise I keep ...

As prcedemment say:

- Guitar made in Korea
- Rosewood fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets and decorates a tree of life the most beautiful effect!
- A micro Seymour Duncan Jazz (SH-2) in handle and a Seymour Duncan JB (SH-4) with rack
- Bridge Set Tone Pro.
- Grover Mcaniques
- Mahogany body with neck-in stocky, the strings are also traversing. The table is also in the saddle and is the most beautiful effect.

In short, superb finishes. Moreover, having seen the other models, the color appears diffrent on each table, making each guitar a personal touch. Mine is trans-blue color and this color is beautiful trs, while remaining sober.

Rating: 9 / 10 All good on paper, but nothing is perfect ^ ^

UTILIZATION

First of all I am beginners, and I use it only for a month, so my advice is taken lightly.

Regarding race, I must say I find it quite pais, but plutt pleasant because it is very well profile and polish glides perfectly, so no worries of the ct . Moreover, the ACCS is keen to rev right, first thanks the shape of the guitar, and also the lack of heel. It can therefore play dernires frets without too much trouble.

In weight trs is bearable, I can not really compare with other guitars, but I think it is a balance, neither too heavy nor too lgre. In any case with a good strap no problem.

The trs mcaniques take much agreement, though I attack the strings like a nag, a not move

Small BMOL even when I do not know if this is from my guitar, or my incomptence for beginners (especially when I see a different view over the plutt positive), but I the impression that the Tone knob of trsractif is not, it's either all or nothing (just j'exagre = D but I find that even when teachers)

For sound I dveloppe APRS

Rating: 7 / 10 (for the tonality of knob: /)

SOUNDS

I use the scraper on a Super Champ XD, and I must say it is .... Total ecstasy. I think we should be able to do anything with that shovel: blues, funk, rock, jazz, mtal (with a suitable amplifier)

A vacuum is trsmlodieux dj, and the sustain is good dj trs

Once a branch is even better!

The neck pickup is a real joy in his bright, saturated or lgrement. We can play tricks and hot round yum. on the other hand I find it a little too mushy in heavy saturation, a lack of precision, and the output level is lower compared to the bridge pickup which will be more suitable.

Besides, it sends the bridge pickup sauce, and makes my amp dj saturated with lightweight crunch when not splitt.Il must be perfect for rock, hard rock I go t (amp simulations on vox or marshall the superfield yum yum), it is incisive, it's good: p. For mtal is also playable, but some can be prfreront of EMG, which sound even more prcis. Position splits, we get snapping sounds good without reaching the slamming of a Start or Tele, but still good.

Rating: 9 / 10

OVERALL OPINION

APRS one month of use, I must say I am a little more packed every day. This is my 1st guitar I wanted to type in the very high end to make a good investment dpart the ds, and I'm not!

Here we have a versatile guitar to look fabulous with a trs good report quality price! Even if I think dj buy more guitars later, I will keep it for sentimental value, its beauty and efficiency. In any case you can not go wrong by buying it.

Corenne t say it all down

UTILIZATION

The neck of this guitar is a real highway with an incredible Access in acute (neck through). Sitting or standing, it's only bonheur.Je have to buy a suitcase schecter as good as any guitare.les irrprochables.je finishes are playing a little bit of everything The House.The rpeter groups and it is not my age.

SOUNDS

Sounds are gniaux thanks to Seymour Duncan, you can go for a clean sound sweet desire, in its saturated mordant.le microphones handle is soft, the bridge over the guitar should all incisif.cette styles: jazz, blues, funk, rock and heavy metal.le sustain when it is endless. only problem in a table, the knobs are changing, especially that of the tone, it's simple it does not change rien.Je played a strato amrcaine 1991, I sold it and bought it the APRS have read the notice below, I did not even essayer.Je pas.j no regrets' have some friends who play on gibson lp standard that flip when they saw it and who does not believe puvaient price and gives ten son.je pure because the price of a knob .... I forgot I tried it on several amps of friends: marshall, mesa, fender and vox all the same pleasure

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and I can not get enough, this is a rel plaisir.je playing for 25 years, with the strato I felt limited by the split into single coil pickups and I get the sound of humbuckers play any style.c is by far the most versatile scraper I've ever heard, but with his personality it.The piiiiied quoi.ATTENTION if you try it you will quick hitch and you do lcherez this guitar is more addictive.

UTILIZATION

This guitar was purchased new and unplayed! When I opened the case I was happily surprised to see that mine had a much more colorful and nice looking inlay in the neck than the floor model I had tested out at the guitar shop, which was a stale looking off-white color. Mine has multiple colors and a lot of depth.

The setup of this guitar was impressive to say the least. The action was perfect as well as the intonation, and only the pickup height had to be tweaked to my liking. Great job and along the lines of Carvin and ESP in setup quality!

SOUNDS

I tested this guitar with my Dual Rectifier (which was in stock form when I bought the guitar, but has since been modified by Dave Friedman and retubed) and my Carvin MTS head. I also played this guitar through a Marshall JCM 800, a JCM 900 and a Mesa Boogie Mark IV.

Through every amp, the guitar delivered very nice, solid guitar tones. The Bridge position in this guitar feels nice and has a bit of an "airy" quality which I love, especially with the Mesa amps. I'm a fan of the Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge position, but I'm not sold on the Duncan Jazz model in the neck position. It sounds too glassy and hollow. It's difficult to describe what I'm looking for in a neck pup, but the Jazz is definitely not right for me. That's not to say that the Duncans are bad, I mean they are extremely popular and are preferred by many touring pros for a reason! Just not my thing.

Pickups aside, the construction and feel of this guitar are great. With some different pups, I think it would be perfect! Throw in the ability to coil-tap the pickups and you've got an instrument that's as versatile as it is gorgeous.

The guitar stays in tune very well also, which is a huge thing for me, being a lead player. I bend the strings a lot so I need a lot of stability!

OVERALL OPINION

As stated earlier, aside from the neck pickup not being completely to my liking, this is a near perfect instrument!

The beautiful figured maple top, great feeling neck, quality components and versatile pickup selecting configuration make this a great value for guitarists of any level and budget!

Guitar made in Korea, which has an easel type tune-o-matic (different from Gibson: less comfortable), the neck is maple, rosewood fingerboard and through: it's the highlight of the guitar.
It has 22 jumbo frets and two humbuckers S. Duncan: sh1 59 'in bridge and sh2 jazz in the heats, they are good pickups, full of potatoes.
and split by the microphones are microphones selector 5 positions. 1 tone, 1 volume.
Another weak point is the frets or the key: my hands are blackened after quarter of an hour of play .. weird.

UTILIZATION

stick rather nice (different from those of Ibanez what I played before, but I adapted very quickly)
in weight: Schecter could make a little effort when the balance: a round mahogany would have been more enjoyable on this point.
access to treble is very successful because of the neck through.
Well equipped, good sound is easy to obtain: it is a guitar to play DUROCK foremost and there the mahogany body makes very good job.

SOUNDS

the sound is perfect for my style of music (ACDC, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath.)
sounds are primarily fat (body mahogany). associated with this guitar Dual EL84 Hughes and Kettner is excellent (this amp is designed for vintage sounds)
the best sounds come from sh2: it is one of the best microphones in my Duncan.

I use it for two months before I tried: the Duesenberg 49er (too expensive), Lag (1000 and Roxanne Morgan: too expensive) and various Gibson (too expensive)

I got this guitar because it is the only one I could have used (in excellent condition), all others I've seen that new so beyond my means. without it I would have taken the 49er.

This guitar stands still: it is well worth Gibson at the price / quality ratio.
