Full Description
View Full DescriptionPure tonal excellence
The pickups provide a noise-free operation and feature some clever wiring that allow two different tonalities from a single pickup. The C-7 SLS Elite features a pair of these modern humbuckers, with an alnico model in the neck and ceramic model in the bridge. Its alnico humbucker is designed for full chords and fluid solos, plus an additional unique voice that you'll need to hear to appreciate, while the ceramic humbucker gives the versatility to achieve both active-pickup-style aggression and passive-pickup-style punch. Each pickup has dual voice capabilities, accessed via the SLS Elite's volume/tone push/pull pots.
This combination of dual humbuckers and switching functionality gives you a very wide tonal palette to draw from and will deliver a superb high-gain tone in whatever style of music you desire. The wide tonal range of the Fluence pickups provide exceptional clarity for the extended range of this instrument, giving you full coverage for both low-end riffing and high-end shredding.
Effortless playability
This guitar has specifications aimed squarely at high performance. The neck itself is very thin with a shallow "C" profile, which sits comfortably in the hand and is mounted through the body with a shallow "Ultra Access" joint. When combined with the asymmetric double cutaway body, the C-7's neck will disappear under your fingers as you effortlessly glide along its whole length.
Its fingerboard is crafted with a modern compound radius, widely regarded for its low-fret comfort and high-fret soloing capabilities. The neck is mounted with twenty-four stainless steel frets, which not only last longer but also provide a brighter, more resonant tonality. Alongside that, they are also extra-large and give fantastic grip on the strings for easy bends and vibrato.
Resonant tonewoods
The C-7 has a swamp ash body, known for its well-rounded tonality and resonance. Its body is topped with flamed maple for added high-end response and a striking aesthetic on stage, while the neck is a multi-ply design with maple, walnut, and padauk. It is reinforced with carbon fibre for incredible stability and increased sustain. The multi-ply also looks fantastic from the back of the guitar, with the neck running along the whole length of the instrument. It's almost a shame for your audience that they won't see this rear view.
Professional features
This model also has additional design touches for professional performance. The compensated Ernie Ball nut helps with accurate intonation along the length of the neck, while the locking tuners guarantee tuning stability. Its double locking Floyd Rose bridge gives the ability to perform all manner of whammy bar antics, safe in the knowledge that your strings will still be in tune after use. No detail is left to chance on the Schecter C-7 SLS Elite and you can be sure that it has been honed to perfection to give you the best performance capability possible.
