"One Sick Guitar"

Feature:
The brand new EMG 81tw/89 humbuckers are insane. I had hopes set on Duncan Blackouts but i swear to god these are twice as good. Original Floyd Rose is soo fun to play around with when i firt tried it out i went for the Dimebag squeal(r.i.p). The mahogany makes the tone just that much better then any other guitar in its price range. I hear lots of people talk about yeah its great for its price range but if this was 1500 or more i would probably still buy it. I'm just lacking a good amp to get the most out of this beast.

Quality:
So far the guitar is as beautiful sounding and looking as the day i got it. Everything put into this guitar is top quality Schecter could price this much higher if they wanted to.

Value:
Lets just say Schecter is losing out for not pricing this beauty another grand higher.

Desirability:
O dont get me started on how many girls come to my house everyday just to see this thing. But really the unique black cherry and abalone bindings and inlays not to mention sexy chrome hardware this is one beautiful looking guitar but its not a poser guitar in any way this thing delivers.

Sound:
This thing is unbelievable as soon as it shipped i couldnt wait to get it home and when i did the tone was beautiful and theres so many setting to play around with on the new 81tw/89 EMGs

Ease of Use:
For a mahogany guitar this thing feels very light specially compared to a Les Paul that my buddy has. The neck has nice big frets. I've yet to change a string on the Floyd rose so thats the one thing that might be difficult but i have tuned the guitar up and down for different songs and so far i'm very pleased with how easy its been. It stays in tune veryyy well.

Support:
I have yet to talk to them but so far i highly dealt i will have to.

Overall:
Do yourself a big favor and buy it.

"IT FITS ME"

Feature:
The original Floyd is nice but its not the best trem. in the market like everyone seems to think. Don't get me wrong it is nice but im just letting everyone know there is better but it is probably the best you can get in a stock mass produced guitar. IF YOU DROP TUNE GET YOUR GUITAR SET UP CORRECTLY FOR YOUR PLAYING STYLE AND TUNING NO MATTER WHAT THE BRAND IS!!!

Quality:
The quality is very nice not as good as a full out custom but for a mass produced guitar very good. I recommend hand picking this guitar if you want one. Binding is always done by hand and the maple tops vary widely. There are no two hellraisers that look exactly alike.

Value:
For the materials, hardware and quality you cant get any better in this price range. Get it set up for YOUR PLAYING STYLE, take care of it (hardshell case, humidifier, polish, fretboard conditioner, ect)and this thing will take care of you. Trust me

Desirability:
The heel of the neck is carved to give you the most comfortable feel on the higher end of the neck. That was what sold me on this instead of a Jackson soloist. The black cherry paint job is phenomenal. I feel that this is the most attractive guitar in my line up of a les paul, rhoads v, and ibanez rg.

Sound:
This thing is an amazing instrument if you know how to use it. The emgs are great. If your unfamiliar with them then your in for a suprise. With my dual rec i have so much versatility. If its heavy i can get the tone w/ this guitar. Make sure the pickups are as close to the strings as you can get them w/out making the strings scratch them. It will optimize the effectiveness of the active electronics and your amp.

Ease of Use:
The first thing is get it set up for your tuning. The entire guitar is set up for standard tuning. The Floyd may need more springs if you drop really low and of course the lower you go the further off your intonation will be; get it set up correctly for your style. Not to mention fret buzz. EVERY guitar has fret buzz but it can be minimized or tweeked to accent your playing. How do you think Dime got the scream out of his guitars?

Support:
I have no idea how good the support is b/c i have never used it and my guitar has been modded since i first got it so the warranty is voided anyway. If you take care of this thing you wont need it either.

Overall:
The only thing that would top this (after my mods) would be a custom made guitar. Don't tie yourself down to a certain brand or get caught up in the hypes. Find the guitar that fits you. If you like the feel and sound of something then get it. Don't let anyone tell you its good or bad unless they are letting you know how long it will last. The Hellraiser fit me so check it out you might like it too.
