Schecter Traditional Standard Electric Guitar, Lake Placid Blue

Full Description

Alder Body

The Schecter guitar features a body constructed from high quality Alder wood, creating a balanced sound with an incredibly high resonance. Its tone is full and rich, offering both dark and bright characteristics to the guitar’s tone, and produces beefy mids with a full bodied feel. The guitar also features a Schecter diamond vintage tremolo bridge to create classic pitch bends, and a lake placid blue finish with Chrome hardware to create a stylishly classic look.

Maple Neck and Fingerboard

With a neck and fingerboard both constructed from Maple, the guitars tone is given tightness and cut, providing an edge of sizzle to the highs and firmness to its lows. 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. The guitar also comes with many other features including Grover tuners and dot inlays on the fingerboard.

Schecter Vintage Pickups

The Schecter features a set of three Schecter Diamond vintage single coil pickups to produce classic tones, perfect for music ranging from jazz and blues, to light rock. Featuring volume and tone controls, the pickups feature a 5 way switch to select which pickup to use, offering a range of tonal possibilities.
