Schecter Traditional Custom Electric Guitar, Black Cherry Burst

Full Description

Swamp Ash Body, Flamed Maple Top

The Schecter has a body crafted from Swamp Ash, creating a lightweight and resonant guitar, and features a Flamed Maple top to provide a unique and visually stunning look. The Swamp Ash delivers sweet, airy tones with a twangy feel, and offers firm lows, pleasing highs, and slightly scooped mids. The body allows each note to articulate, providing a full sound that has an excellent sustain. The guitar also features a Wilkinson tremolo bridge, chrome hardware, and a black cherry burst finish to create a stunning appeal.

Maple Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard

The Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard has been designed with a thin "C" shape for a smooth, fast play. The Maple wood provides bright characteristics to the overall tone, whilst offering a snappy attack in the midrange. When the strings are played hard, the wood produces more punch to the tone, and when played with light or medium picking, then tone has excellent clarity. Adding a Rosewood Fingerboard the tone becomes warmer and softer, with sparkling highs and thick lows. The guitar also comes with many other features including Schecter locking tuners and dot inlays on the fingerboard.

Schecter Diamond Pickups

The Schecter features a Schecter Diamond Plus humbucker and two vintage single coil pickups. Schecter’s vintage pickups are positioned at the middle and neck to produce classic tones, perfect for music ranging from jazz and blues, to light rock. Schecter’s Humbucker is designed with over-wound coils and ceramic magnets to give a high output that offer plenty of energy and push. The Diamond plus features a coil tap to switch to a sparkling single coil, making the Schecter an incredibly versatile guitar.
