MGR/Rwilson « Schecter OMEN-6 »
Published on 01/09/03 at 15:00 I purchased this guitar at a music store in Pittsburgh, PA, for $300 (money well spent).
This guitar is not only a real bargain, offering such features as Grover brand tuners, a 24- fret fretboard, and Duncan-designed humbuckers, but it has a beautiful action which is perfect for playing lead riffs (this guitar is also capable of playing great rhythm parts- the primary use I have it for is playing rhythm). It is also equipped with a tune-o-matic bridge and stop-bar tailpiece, and for controls it offers a three way toggle switch and one tone & one volume potentiometer. Finally, to top it all off, this guitar comes with a lifetime waranty.
There is not much that this guitar is lacking, but if I had a say in redesigning it, i would have an individual volume and tone pot for each pickup.
The construction and quality can be defined in one word: excellant. No complaints about how it is put together, from the bolt-on satin-finished neck to the beautiful carved top on the body. (The body of the guitar has a Stratocaster-like outline; but a Les-Paul like carved top, dual humbuckers, three-way switch, and stop bar/ tune-o-matic setup.)
It is overall a very well-built and well-designed guitar. From punk to vintage tones, this guitar is capable of it all.
