Killer Guitar
The omen 6 is the most recent guitar i've purchased and it'll most likely be the last. Right out of the box, it has a killer tone, great note clarity and excellent sustain. It has a great feel comparable to a PRS or Gibson guitar, very solid but not too heavy. I've run this guitar through a mountain of fx and it shines through better than any stock guitar in my arsenal. For the price of this guitar, you really can't be it, the closest being purchasing a cheaper guitar and then having to shell out for better pickups, which come standard on the omen 6. I can't imagine a feature or option other than slight cosmetic issues that i'd ever change on this beast.

Reliable, Nice- Sounding Omen
This guitar makes both a great beginner and intermediate guitar. For $300, you get the very professional look of a nicer guitar and decent tone from the Diamond Humbucker pickups. Be warned that it is actually much smaller than it looks in the pictures, but is great in terms of sound and quality.
After having mine for about a year, it hasn't chipped or scratched in any spots, although the high gloss finish (blue and black only) makes it difficult to keep free of fingerprints and smudges. In terms of sound, this is a surprisingly versatile guitar that can produce fitting tones for metal, light rock, jazz or whatever. It sounds very similar to a nicer Ibanez guitar at half the price because it is warm and very full-bodied sounding. I have plugged it into a Line 6 Spider, a Crate, and even my Dad's Acoustic Crate. All of these amps gave me the same warm tone, whether on the clean channel or with distortion. It also sounds great with the Boss DS-1 Distortion pedal.
As far as playability goes, I really had an easy time moving up and down the fret board, but the higher frets don't seem to produce as nice of a sound as the lower ones do. Accordingly, this guitar is best for low end stuff, but at higher ranges, it gets a little thin sounding. But for $300 dollars, it is well worth the money, because not only does it look like a professional guitar with the beveled edges and the string-through body, but it sounds and plays very decently.

Great Starter Guitar....
This an EXCELLENT guitar for the money, that plays well with any music style. The pickups may be the weakest part of the package(and the most common modification), but they are smooth and clear with or without distortion. My Omen 6 doesn't have any fret buzz problems, and I have my action fast and low, but every guitar is different. Test yours out before you buy it( or have a friend play it). And change the strings when you get it, the GHS applied strings suck. Try some Super Slinky's!!!
If your thinking about picking up guitar don't get the cheap Squier starter packs. Spend a little more for this guitar and own something of far better quality, that will keep you happier longer, and with a pickup change, will become a flamethrower!!!

So much for expensive guitars.
Who needs an expensive guitar when you've got the Schecter Omen 6. I can't describe to you how great it is. You have to play one for yourself. It does everything a pricey guitar will do, and if you ask me... Much, much more. So put down the cup-o-noodles, and buy yourself a worthy dinner, and while you're at it, this worthy guitar. Guaranteed you won't be disappointed.

Change up by Schecter
I mainly wanted to post an FYI about the Omen 6 and I'm sure regarding the Schecter's in general now.
Apparently Schecter has relocated the manufacturing site from South Korea to China. My Omen 6 which is beautiful was made in China and that might explain some differences with other Omen's. My walnut satin color is not as deep a red as the others I have been looking at. Mine is lighter and shows off the grain more. Also, mine has nickel hardware and GROVER tuners vs. the diamond tuners it is supposed to have.
It still is a beauty and I'm having fun playing it. As long as it has been inspected and setup here in the states by Schecter, as mine has, I'm confident in the change.
