      I have two Schecter electric guitars and a Fender Stratocaster, this is my first introduction to a 12 string and I will say that it feels like I'm playing a whole different instrument when I play this thing. Has great tone, great action out of the box, and looks awesome.

      The materials used to produce this guitar are the same as those found on MUCH more expensive instruments. The only change I had to make out of the box is I like a lighter gauge string. The only complaint I have is that for some reason Schecter Acoustics seem hard to come by. Then again, maybe the sell as fast as they can make them.

      I use this guitar to record mexican regional. The sound is great and the feel and action is also great for a 12 string. I have my string set up for Sierreño and it holds up well. I would definitely recommend. I get compliments all the time on the color of guitar. Originally i had purchased the Takamine G series but ended up returning because the neck was too fat for my hand. This was a way better guitar for sure. Glad i found it.

    • Great but!

      Bought this Schecter 12 string guitar after buying (and playing-of course) their 8 string bass (Stiletto). The action and tone was so nice in the bass I bought the guitar without touching it...had to order one. Upon picking it up, I started playing it and have lots of trouble putting it down. Action is right-on and playability is a 10. Tone is as nice as any high end 12 string. Built in tuner is a nice feature.. highly recommended.

    • Very high quality 12 string guitar for an unbeatable price.

      Guitar is made from all solid wood. Neck is thin as per Schecter usual, which is difficult to accomplish with a 12-string. Action can be set incredibly low without any negative effects, as well. Sound is rich and colorful.
