Blemished

This is typically a customer return. This inventory includes all parts, components, manuals (hard copy or downloadable) and the full factory warranty. It is guaranteed to work perfectly, but it has a cosmetic blemish. It may be less attractive than Warehouse Resealed inventory, but it's priced even lower! This inventory is a great value.

"Freakin' Fantastic"

Feature:
The guitar comes with allen wrenches and a whammy bar (standard), but also includes an instrument cable. this cable might not be Monster quality but hey, its a spare cable. The guitar features a Vol/Vol/Tone EQ setup, which is fun because you can mute one pickup and use the 3-way switch as a killswitch. However, I don't really ever use that except for one solo I like to play, and the 3 knobs are kind of crammed together. I think a Vol/Tone setup would've suited this guitar better because the neck pickup volume knob crowds my playing a little. A minor issue, but still, just voicing my opinion. The Licensed Floyd Rose is NOT a cheap immitator of the original. Stays in tune great, plays great, and it keeps the cost of the guitar down to the ridiculous price it is at. The only other thing it had was a set-neck with Schecter's ultra-access neck joint (those things are amazing), but again, the bolt-on keeps it at the great price its at.

Quality:
This guitar has some weight to it due to the mahogany body, which makes it feel a bit more durable that other guitars. Seems like its going to last a long time.

Value:
For price/feature value, this guitar is great. You get a killer guitar for a ridiculous price.

Desirability:
Now, the gloss black finish didn't interest me too much, but the gloss white is just down right sexy. It's shiny snow white finish along with the gloss black binding makes it tasty eye-candy. The only thing that would make it look even hotter is black hardware. The black chrome looks great, but black would be sick.

Sound:
This guitar sound absolutely amazing. The Duncan Designed HB-105's (which are the Duncan Designed version of the Seymour Duncan Blackouts... same specs) take any kind of music you play beatifully. I'd have to say pumping it with distortion is the most fun but i was blown away when i heard the cleans. The guitar also has some pretty impressive sustain, especially when you crank the overdrive (have fun with divebombs :) ).

Ease of Use:
The Floyd Rose might take some getting used to for newer players, but as long as you do some research or just have a sense of how it works you'll be setting it up yourself in no time. This was my first guitar with a Floyd and I set it up myself with my own gauge strings. Its really not that hard.

Support:
Haven't had to deal with them. However, I've tried to get a hold of Schecter before and have heard from Schecter dealers that they are a pain in butt to get a hold of.

Overall:
This is the best guitar for the price out there in my opinion. Planning on non-stop use for as long as it lasts, and when this one breaks I think I'll definitely be going back to get another of this exact same guitar.

"Amazing Guitar"

Quality:
Seems like the guitar is built like a tank, ive only had it a couple of days but im lovin' the FR.

Value:
I believe this guitar could be priced for double what i gave for it

Sound:
This guitar will absolutely shred a friend and myself went down to guitar center for a couple of hours, wasnt even planning on buying anything. After a while of looking i decided to try the C-1 and wow was i blown away. My friend was playing a jackson of the same value and there was no comparison the schecter destroyed it in all ways. The active pickups dont get muddy even under extremely high gain, we decided to play some "Suicide and Redemption" and had an employee thinking this guitar cost twice as much.

Ease of Use:
Well not too sure what to say here, except if you play guitar it shouldn't be that hard to figure out lol.

Support:
Never had to deal with them, dont expect to either. But from what everyone says about Schecter's support, it seems awesome.
