NEW REVIEW - Forged for Metal Gods...

Ah my Hellraiser, where do I begin... My Shecter is one of the best guitars I've ever played, especially for the price. For an equally expensive guitar of a more well-known brand, Gibson for example, you would get a guitar with a neck that wasn't as smooth, without as versitile pick-ups, and that didn't come with EMG's and a floyd rose tremolo. They say active pick-ups kill some of the guitar's tone, but pull the knob and it's all good. For the styles I play the tone is good enough active. The neck is perfectly smooth and allows you to shred with ease. The floyd rose is a nice touch, although it's not completely necessary. If you're wanting to save some $$ and a floyd rose isn't really you're style, I'd for the Hellraiser without a tremollo. This is because it makes strings a pain to change! I take about an hour to change my stirings, about once a month, playing a few hours every day. Also the bridge is a little tricky. It doesn't allow you to palm mute very hard, resting your hand on the bridge changes the pitch. Bending one string independently will pull on the bridge and change the pitch of any open strings you might have ringing out. All-n-all I'd buy it again, and recommend it to any moderate or advanced metal/rock player. Rock on.

NEW REVIEW - heavy and sweet. headbanger

The schecter hellraiser is a great guitar. the emg 81tw scream when turned up all the way but also deliver a crisp and smooth tone. The bridge pickup is perfect for heavy head banging or, when toned down, perfect for something like europa(warm and smooth). I hammer the floyd rose all day and do evil dips and it just wont get out of tune. I have just a few bad remarks that really dont matter. the body is heavy, but who cares. Also, if you want a tight sound like vai, the emg's wont quite get that high but for everything else, from dragonforce to dimebag, it is perfect

NEW REVIEW - AWSOME

Ok where do I start!? I've had this guitar for a good 8+ months so I think it's a good time to write a review. I'm 15 and have been playing for a good 2 years, now I'm not the best player but my friends think i'm good. This is my 2nd guitar, besides a squire. But I have played some epiphones and gibsons. This thing rocks! The EMG's are amazing. I can headbang to crazy train on high gain, and then switch over to an overdrive and play along with Hendrix. Coil taps activate the coils underneath the pickups and give you that ultra clean, crisp sound of a strat. The neck feels so smooth it's like glass. I bought the black cherry and along with mother of pearl accents, this thing is probably the most beautiful guitar I've seen. Go play one and plug into a Line6 , I have a line6 spider3 75 watt. All my friends and my dads friends who have musical experince think it sounds amazing. I bought one, and will definately be keeping it most of my life. Go play one, and buy it. You so won't regret it!

This Guitar will eat your children!!!!

I was walking down the street the other day when a Schecter Hellraiser decapitated an old lady crossing the street. After that it slaughtered a kid's soccer team with it's awesome screeching high notes. It then laughed maniacally and flew off into the sunset. I new then that I could not rest until I owned a Hellraiser of my own.
