Description

The Schecter C-1 Exotic Trem has it all: great sound, ease of playability, and stunning looks. A solid mahogany body is met with a beautiful ebony top giving this exotic looking instrument clarity, warmth, and character. 

A natural satin finished 5 piece roasted maple/purple heart bolt-on neck with an ebony fretboard provide warmth and sustain while the thin C neck shape and 14” radius provide a perfect blend of comfort and playability. 

The Schecter Diamond ’78 humbucker pickups harken back to an earlier time, providing plenty of clarity as well as aggressiveness to meet all of our tonal desires. The Duo Colored Wilkinson WVS50 II K Tremelo provides complete stability with a vintage look and feel. 

Additional features on this exotic beauty are Schecter locking tuners, a Graph tech Black TUSQ nut, and a duel action truss rod. Optional SGR-1C molded hardshell case sold separately.

    This guitar was my daily guitar. It was the one I used for work every day, and the once I payed when I shows where I needed to play in standard tuning. It genuinely feels, sounds, and looks incredible. The bridge is one of the best trems I've used, and the lock in tuners make everything incredibly stable. While it has coil tap/split, it did feel like the tone options were a little one dimensional. BUT, ultimately I sold it and pivoted to something more suitable for my hands and play style. One day I'll probably get one of these again, but I just found it was sitting in the corner not getting played.

  • It is amazing

    This guitar is a beast and plays well for any music. I put a seymour duncan black winter in the bridge position. It is a maniac crazy sounding beautiful guitar.

    Does the bridge sit flush to the body. Or is it a floating bridge?
