Key Features

Neck-through body design: This construction creates a seamless feel and great tonal transfer, so every note rings out with clarity. The “Ultra Access” design means you can easily reach those high frets too.
7-Piece Maple/Walnut/Padauk neck: Not only gorgeous but built for strength and stability. Plus, with an Ultra-Thin “C” profile, it’s perfect if you’re a shredder after a lightning-fast feel.
22 X-jumbo stainless steel frets: Go big or go home! These frets make bending a breeze and stay pristine for years, giving you awesome playability and durability.
12-16” compound radius fingerboard: Start with a comfy, rounded feel near the nut for easy cowboy chords, then glide up to a flatter radius for effortless bends and shred-friendly action. It’s the best of both worlds.
Schecter Anniversary Edition pickups: Loaded with a Schecter Sunset Strip humbucker in the bridge and a Pasadena Classic in the neck, this duo is all about versatility and attitude. Expect searing high-gain aggression when you need it, and smooth, vintage-flavoured cleans when you dial things back.
Push/pull coil split tone knob: Pull up on the tone knob to activate the coil split mode for sparkling single-coil sounds.
TonePros M-Series locking tuners: Make string changes quick and painless while giving you rock-solid tuning stability for the stage or studio.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
