Output. Clarity. And enough control over your sound to let you shape your perfect tone. The Schecter Keith Merrow is equipped with a set of powerful Diamond KM humbuckers that are perfect for both live and studio use. You can crank the volume up to 11 and never worry about sound quality - they're designed to eliminate noise interference, providing you with maximum clarity. Your audience will hear every note.
This kind of fidelity is ideal for laying down tracks in the studio, too. And you'll never worry about being limited in how you can sound. A 3-way pickup switch and 2-way coil-split toggle gives you a wealth of options over the tone of your electronics. Tailor them intricately to perform for you.
Unleash hell
Every aspect of the Schecter Keith Merrow KM-7 has been designed to ensure maximum playability and give exhilarating dynamism to your playing. You can be certain that every millimeter of this guitar has had care and attention paid to it - with the ultimate goal of crafting a magnificent instrument that's perfect for heavy metal.
Key to this is the sizzling speed with which you can play when you've got one of these in your hands. The sleekness of the ebony and maple used for the fingerboard and neck respectively minimises friction - allowing your hand to move at rapid pace from fret to fret. Your fingers will become a blur.
You'll enjoy accuracy as you shred, too. That's because large X-jumbo frets increase your playing area, making it easier to nail every note. Even at the speed of light. And a double cutaway body means you don't have to think about bridging over a clunky neck joint to hit notes at the top of the scale. So you can concentrate entirely on what you're playing - without ever being held back.
Optimum tuning
Banish your tuning woes to the past. Because there's nothing more irritating to a guitarist than an instrument that's always dropping out of tune. So Schecter have fitted the KM-7 MK-III with a top-quality Ernie Ball compensated nut. One of the biggest, most respected names in guitar hardware, Ernie Ball are relied upon by some of music's greatest artists to help them sound at their best. The compensated nut holds your strings firmly in place, maintaining their tuning. This means you'll spend less time perfecting your guitar's key, and more time playing.
By a metal guitarist, for metal guitarists
Keith Merrow knows metal. The American has worked in pretty much every field within the heavy metal music industry. He has been a songwriter, performing artist, producer, teacher - the list goes on. Keith rose to prominence after debuting his metal gear demonstrations on YouTube in 2008, showcasing his supreme knowledge. These caught the eye of Schecter, premium guitar manufacturers, who signed Merrow up as a collaborator.
In recent years, the company has become renowned for producing top of the range metal guitars, in no small part because of Keith's excellent expert input. You can be certain that with a Schecter-Merrow collaboration, you're buying a guitar magnificently suited to the metal genre. Seether, Avenged Sevenfold and The Cure all use Schecter instruments. It's about time you were too.
