Schecter Guitar Research

collapse expand iconDescription

The Schecter Omen Elite-7 7-string electric guitar takes stunning looks, high performance playability and tone, and packages it into an incredibly affordable price. It features a poplar figured burl top combined with a lightweight mahogany body to provide a rich and complex combination of warmth, resonance and sustain.

A maple neck with rosewood fretboard, thin C neck shape, 16" radius, 26.5" scale length, and 24 extra jumbo frets is built for speed, tone and effortless playability. Lightning fast runs, arpeggios and hammer-ons have never been easier. Pearloid line fretboard inlays give a touch of class to this otherwise menacing machine.

The Omen Elite-7 is loaded with a set of Schecter Diamond “Heretic” humbucker pickups that produce a balanced yet aggressive and combative tone. The center Alnico V magnet coupled with Ceramic 8 flanking magnets deliver a crushing midrange while maintaining a tight, focused and articulate response. The Heretic pickups were designed to conjure the heaviest tones that shake the ground you stand on.

A new 5-Way (hum/hum) switch provides an arsenal of voicings to select through. Position 1 is a bridge humbucker; position 2 is a classic single-coil bridge/neck; position 3 is a bridge/neck full humbucker; position 4 is a neck in parallel humbucker; and position 5 is a neck series humbucker.

A Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut boosts tone and performance while bringing out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. A precise tune-o-matic bridge and Schecter tuners put the finishing touches on this undisputed pound for pound champion of guitars being offered at this price point.

Optional SGR-1C molded hardshell case sold separately.
