Description
New for NAMM 2019, Schecter Guitars introduces the E-1 SLS Elite. This neck-thru build begins with resonant swamp ash wings mated to a 7-ply maple/walnut/padauk carbon fiber-reinforced ultra-thin C-shape neck, capped off with a 25.5” scale ebony fingerboard with 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets. A set of Fishman Modern humbuckers with individual dual-voice switching options via push-pull pots, provides professional-grade high-fi tone with the versatility to hop naturally between sweet passages and scalding riffs. Ensuring sublime tuning stability and precision is a premium hardware suite consisting of Schecter locking tuners, an Ernie Ball compensated nut, and a TonePros T3BT/T1Z Tune-O-Matic bridge system. Adding the frosting to the proverbial cake are aesthetic touches including a beautiful flame-maple top and headcap, abalone side-dot inlays, offset abalone fingerboard inlays, ivory binding on the body and neck, and a contrasting finish scheme with natural pearl back and side

    I saw a 4 star review from someone commenting on this guitar, and I wanted to call BS on that. This guitar is amazing!!! It plays better than my Gibson that's more than 3x it's value. I was always an EMG man, but after playing the Fishman modern fluence pickups, I've not went back. My rig is a mesa dual rec with a horizon devices Precision Drive, and let me tell you, it's the best tone I've ever discovered!!! Point is, the guitar is a metal machine. Plays great, fast, built extremely well, beautiful finish. It's my favorite guitar. If you're thinking about buying one, do yourself a favor and do it!

    Unfortunately, we don't carry any hard shell cases for this guitar. The Epiphone Explorer Hardshell Case is the recommended case.
