Schecter Guitar Research

collapse expand iconDescription

The Banshee GT FR-S from Schecter is built for speed. With a reimagined Banshee shape featuring a mahogany body and a flamed maple top, the Banshee FR-S is decorated with a “GT” racing stripe that lets your audience know it’s time to buckle in for the ride. Equipped with an EMG 81 active bridge pickup for heavy tones and a Sustainiac neck pickup for nearly infinite sustain, this riff machine includes an ultra-thin U set neck for blisteringly fast solos. With a Floyd Rose Special “Hot Rod” bridge with stainless steel appointments, a push-in tremolo arm and noiseless springs, the Banshee GT FR-S is a blend of control, stability and sonic power.
