Product Description

The Schecter Blackjack ATX Avenger gives a fantastic look, superb feel, and menacing tone. Massive tone is produced by two Seymour Duncan Active Blackouts AHB-1 humbuckers for aggressive playing styles. Recommended for old school metal, garage, punk, thrash, drop tunings, and other heavy rock styles. Capturing the tone that players want in an active design using balanced inputs. The result is 12dB to 14dB less noise, plus more lows, more highs, and more output.

Schecter Locking Tuners

Schecter Locking Tuners feature a locking screw pin to lock the string into place for greater tuning stability. Details include a 19:1 gear ratio allowing for precise fine tuning adjustments, removable knobs, threaded peghead bushing, and a 10mm diameter peg hole.

Ebony Fingerboard

Ebony has a snappy, crisp attack with the density of Maple, but with more brittle grains, oilier pores, and a stronger fundamental tone than Maple. It has a tremendous amount of percussive overtones in the pick attack, that mute out shortly thereafter to foster great, long, sustain.

Seymour Duncan Active Blackouts Pickups

9-volt active humbucker for aggressive playing styles. Recommended for old school metal, garage, punk, thrash, drop tunings, and other heavy rock styles. Capturing the tone that players want in an active design using balanced inputs. The result is 12dB to 14dB less noise, plus more lows, more highs, and more output.

3-Piece Mahogany Neck

Made with 3 pieces of mahogany for extra stability. 3 piece necks can withstand the test of time. Where standard necks may show aging defects from temperature and moisture changes throughout the years, the 3 piece neck will stay nice and straight for a lifetime of playability. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Schecter products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great guitar, awesome tone, amazing for metal players \m/(>"
Sound: The sound of this guitar is amazing. The Blackout pickups sound pretty good. Im in a metal band and it's perfect for what we do, especially with the low tunings. This is my first experience with active pickups, and I do have to say that I am liking them so far. Had to tweak the amp settings a bit for the actives, but nothing to major. I play through a Peavey 6505+ with a maxon od808 for a boost, which with this guitar sounds a bit bigger from my other guitar, which has a Dimarzio D-Activator in it. Very happy with the tone and fullness of this guitar. Feature: Everything on the ATX is awesome. The locking tuners are awesome. The 25.5 inch neck, which is absolutely needed to play in lower tunings for stability. The neck is good, I just wish it was a little thinner though. There really isn't anything not to use on this thing haha. It's pretty straight forward. Ease of Use: Very easy and was easy to set up. Getting a good sound was easy for the most part, like I said before, just a little amp tweaking and we were good to go. Quality: This guitar is built amazingly. The finish was flawless when I got it. I can see this one being either a backup or primary guitar for gigs. I have taken it so far to a couple shows and did use it as my main axe, and have no complaint's, but a lot of compliments on the tone and the look of the guitar. Value: Pretty good for the price. I've played guitars double the price of this and I wasn't very impressed. The ATX series is a solidly built, and very affordable metal machine. Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to ask for any support. The Wow Factor: This guitar is awesome like I said. I am definitely looking forward to buying. another ATX guitar very soon. I've had nothing but compliments about the guitar. From the look and the sound of the guitar. Nothing but compliments. This guitar is going to be used for a long time coming. Overall: I expect to keep this for a long time like I said. I'm always on the lookout for new gear and this is just one that caught my eye.
