"A really fine guitar for the money!"

Feature:
The center tapped pickups take a little time to get the idea of how to apply them, but this feature offers interesting combinations of voice and the way the sustain works with some effects. The through the body string retention makes it really simple to re-string. And of course the Grover tuners are silky smooth.

Quality:
The fit and finish is beautiful, I would say that it is better than many expensive instruments costing thousands of dollars. The hardware is very good. Quality chrome plating on metal parts. The frets are very clean and smooth. My guitar was setup correctly and was received in perfect condition. I also bought the Schecter case for it, the guitar fits perfectly in it.

Value:
Yes, this guitar is worth every penny.

Desirability:
I don't know if it is "sexy" but it is truly a work of art, engineering and craftsmanship. I guess you can compare it to a new Corvette or some exotic sports car. It is simply a pleasure to own.

Sound:
The sound from the factory strings is very good, however, they don't keep their tune very well. I replaced them with D'Angelica Ultra light stainless steel flat wound. These strings stay tuned. The definition is a little dull but the highs are clean and the low tones are rich. This also reduced string noise on slides and transitions.

Ease of Use:
The neck is thin and fast, finger pressure is tight at the nut and easy farther up, bar chords are a breeze.

Support:
I haven't needed any warranty calls, but I would imagine that they are okay because of the good factory setup and inspection.

Overall:
I will most likely keep it a long time, but I would definitely consider Schecter for my next serious purchase. I would like to try one of the more expensive models that have more hardware and finer electronics.
