New Schecter Damien Elite Guitars

Published on 12/18/2009 by TonyBruno, last updated on 12/18/2009

Schecter Guitars presents the Damien Elite collection, designed to "meet the demands of the price conscious consumer looking for high-end components in an affordable guitar," according to the company.

These guitars feature a mahogany body with bolt-on maple neck, rosewood 24x jumbo fretboard, and are available with an optional Floyd Rose tremolo or a string-thru body design bridge by TonePros.

With metal in mind, the EMG-HZ H4/H4A pickups are designed to provide sonic control for tight low ends, clear highs, and a noticeable clarity in the mid range. Black Pearl Bat inlays, Grover tuners, and a simple Vol/Tone/3-way configuration compliment the Satin Black finish.

Pricing & Availability
Schecter puts the 25.5" scale Damien Elite 6-string at ($729) MSRP, the 26.5" scale Damien Elite 7-string ($799) MSRP, and Damien Elite 8-string ($869) MSRP. Throw in an optional Floyd Rose at $70 bucks. The 25.5" scale Damien Elite Solo-6 ($729) MSRP is only available as a 6 string and does not offer the Floyd Rose.

All models are available in a choice of three colors, Crimson Red (CRED), Dark Metallic Blue (DMB), and See-Thru Black (STBLK).
