A body built for undying resilience

When thrashing about on stage and performing with such vigour, your guitar needs to be able to keep up with you. Not only that, it needs to thrive. The magnificent mahogany body of the Schecter Omen Elite is extraordinarily durable, meaning it can take anything you throw at it, or anything your audience throws at it – your shows are bound to be wild if you’re carrying this guitar. The sturdiness travels up the maple neck too, so don’t hold back. Along with the mahogany comes a wonderful resonant tone that focuses on bringing the low to mid range frequencies to life. It’s warm, deep and offers plenty of sustain, meaning your music will have a beautiful undercurrent of richness to give it that immersive feel.

A pristine poplar burl top adds a layer of armour, protecting it with another characterful tonewood. Expanding on the tonal qualities the mahogany provides, poplar brings a balanced, full-bodied tone. It is similar to alder in the way it laces your sound with beautiful clarity, making it perfect for those complex riffs that need definition to avoid sounding muddy. The beauty of the poplar burl top is its ability to open up your sound without having frequencies overpower each other.

Prepare for fierce fretting

As with the body, the woods of the neck and fretboard have been considered in great detail. As well as providing brilliant strength, the hard-wearing maple neck offers a sublime bright tone with a pronounced higher end. This is a significant accompaniment to the mahogany because it evens out the tonal range. You don’t need to worry about notes being lost amidst the whirlwind of your performance, maple wood provides wonderful articulation as well as striking attack and sustain, allowing for versatility within your playing. The shape of the neck also allows for the ultimate freedom to fret however you want; it is thin and smooth, granting you space to fully flex your fingers across the fretboard.

The fretboard itself does not fall short of benefits which make this guitar a breeze to play. Its durable rosewood construction can withstand your rapid shredding and it won’t ever hinder your speedy sliding thanks to its smooth and fast finish. It also impacts the guitar’s tone, adding warmth and a well-rounded sound due to its ability to soften any harsh frequencies. The rosewood, along with incredibly useful jumbo frets which also increase playability, make the fretboard of this guitar a compelling feature.

Pickups that punch

The ultimate decider of tone, the pickups can make or break a guitar. Luckily, Schecter’s expertise mean you can rely on them to deliver a ground-breaking sound. The Schecter Diamond Heretic pickups this guitar is equipped with enhances your playing so that every note rings out with clarity and ferocity. Along with rich harmonics, you can be sure that any high end notes will pierce through with purpose, ideal for intense, gripping solos. No vital pitch bending will ever go unnoticed, the pickups will project it right to the back of the room. And the Floyd Rose Special ‘Hot Rod’ Locking Tremolo, a Schecter exclusive, ensures that not a string will go out of tune when performing such vigorous techniques. The amazing stability, thanks to a 37mm fat brass block and stainless steel screws, mean the pickups will always amplify notes that sound incredible. Deliver a bewitching, unforgettable performance with the Schecter Omen Elite-6 FR. Your sound will never be the same.
