Schecter C1 Classic Electric Guitar

Feature:
The tuners are excellent, and hold very well. The string through body and neck-through design were what initially attracted me to this guitar. The pickup selection is 5

Quality:
It's very, very well made. I read the extensive reviews given to this guitar on this website before i purchased it and i have to agree with pretty much everything else that's been said here: the guitar feels, sounds, plays, and looks like a guitar that SHOULD cost someone well over a 1,000$, yet it's not. Gibson and Fender should take note (Fender especially since Schecter used to make their parts for them and basically one-upped them now).

Value:
I paid a very nice price for this guitar, and as stated before, the guitar is worth way more than the price tag asks for it. I speculate that in about 10 years or so this guitar will be worth WAY more than even the current list price, as Schecter becomes more well known (they are getting a lot of notoriety as of late due to the likes of people like Billy Corgan using them).

Desirability:
Actually, i still "want" this guitar. I'm really more of a person that believes a guitar should be played, not stared at or put on a pedestal by guitar collectors that do nothing but drive up market value with their materialistic ineptitude, but this guitar strikes me every time i see it and it makes me want to play it. It's clearly the Scarlett Johansson of guitars.

Sound:
The intonation on this guitar is superb. When it arrived i took it out of the box to find that it had been set up perfectly. The fretwork is very well done. When played through a high gain amp such as a 5150 or Mesa it really takes full advantage of the amp's potential. The overall tonal characteristic of the guitar is very warm and shimmery, with a defined bottom end. I had never played a neck-through guitar before this, and the rumors about greater sustain are very, very true. Even without plugging it into an amp you can, as Nigel Tufnel once said, "Go out for a bite and come back and it'll [still be going]".

Ease of Use:
I had to take one point off on this category. The neck has an odd feature. The headstock actually begins half way through the first fret, so if you play notes in the first fret range, even something like a simple C chord, it can be a little odd to get used to at first. However it stays at a 9 because when playing anywhere else but the first fret the neck feels wonderful. Also, it's not too awkward, getting used to that first fret "bump". Otherwise, it's pretty straight forward. The neck is the only "ease of use" issue one would need to consider.

Support:
10, i guess. I haven't had to deal with them.

Overall:
This guitar will hold up rather well, and i bet over time the finish is only going to graduate to darker and darker tones, giving it an unearthly air of distinction. The sound is solid too, and i'm sure it will always stay there. This has become my main axe, which is saying something, since i generally regarded my custom-made Fender Strat as being the greatest thing on Earth.

Feature:
The tuners are excellent. The string through body and neck-through design definitely makes this guitar stand out and is a huge plus.

Quality:
This thing is built like a rock. Fender should definitely take note because Schecter is making Fender Strats look like cheap first timer guitars. As soon as you pick up this guitar you know that it is not cheaply made.

Sound:
Hands down the most versatile guitar for under 1000$ I can pretty much get any sound that I want out of this thing. It isn't a mega distortion guitar (and metal guitarists probably shouldn't buy) but everything else sounds amazing, especially when it is clean. The Seymour Duncans blow me away. With 5 pickup selections, your tonal options are limitless.

Ease of Use:
With 1 volume and 1 tone control, a total guitar dummy couldn't go wrong. The intonation was set up perfectly out of the box. The headstock begins half way through the first fret so you have to get used to that when playing on the first fret.

Overall:
Buy this guitar before Schecter becomes a top guitar seller and starts upping their prices. The best guitar for under 1000$+
