The Schecter Sunset Extreme is built for performance, tone and versatility. Loaded with premium components, the Sunset Extreme brings style and professional sound to your fingertips. A nyatoh body with a beautiful flamed maple top and matching flamed maple headstock resonates with a rich and warm, woody tone. A multi 5-ply maple/rosewood bolt-on neck with ultra access and an Ultra-thin C neck shape is ideal for the technically minded player.

Armed with a Schecter USA Sunset Strip bridge pickup and a Schecter USA Pasadena neck pickup, the Sunset Extreme delivers powerful but balanced rock and metal tones with a plethora of upper-midrange harmonic content, perfect for those hard-crunching rhythms and scorching leads. With volume/5-way switch controls you’ll be able to dial in any sound you can dream up.

Other premium features of the Sunset Extreme are stainless steel frets, Schecter Locking tuners, a Schecter Diamond Hardtail Plus bridge, Graph Tech nut and aluminum circle fretboard inlays. An optional SGR-1C premium hardshell molded case or Vintage Tweed wooden case with dark gray plush interior sold separately.
