Customer Reviews
5 out of 5 (10 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Schecter has just made a customer for life!!!"
Sound: Sounds awesome!! You just can't go wrong with the 81/85 combo. Feature: All the hardware on this guitar is amazing. Grover tuners and probably the most comfortable neck I've ever played. The bridge is also really comfortable. When I was looking at this guitar it was my only concern because the bridge looked kind of like it would shred my hand to pieces but it's very nice. Ease of Use: As long as you know how to play it's very easy to use. And with the 81/85 combo, changing the sound of the guitar is as easy as moving the switch. Quality: This guitar came out of the box perfect. No scratches or dings and set up ready to play. It feels like it's very solid and I don't think I'll have to worry about it falling apart. Value: I feel this guitar could be sold for a lot more. The pickups alone would run you over $200 if bought separate. That's one of the reasons I went with the elite, I knew if I bought another guitar I'd just have to sink $200 more into a set of EMG's. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to use support. The Wow Factor: Very Sexy! Within the first 3 days of owning this guitar, two people tried to buy it because it's so hot. I went with the see through black finish and it's beautiful. However, depending on lighting and colors in the room, it sometimes has a purple, to green, to black tint to it. It still looks amazing no matter what colors are reflecting off it. Overall: It's just amazing all around. I was torn between Schecter and Ibanez mainly because of how good the wizard II necks are, but I'm very satisfied with the neck on this guitar. It starts out round and flattens out so you can shred with the best. Buy it, you won't regret it.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Schecter Damien Elite 6? AMAZING."
Sound: As far as sound goes, it definitely adds more chug to your chugs and sounds beefy as everything! I love the sound it gets from the EMGs! As far as any other non-rock/metal genre, I haven't tried yet. But I'm sure it can do alot more than just Metal. Feature: I got the metallica black finish. It doesn't look anything like it does online.. it looks BETTER. I got this sucker and opened it, expecting to find just a plain black guitar, but what I got was a gorgeous, almost see thru, black with the glittery, metallic look. Definitely looks as good as it sounds. Ease of Use: If you're a metalhead like me, all you need is lots of gain, the right EQ, and you're set to go! I play in Drop A in my band (Romero, you should check us out on Facebook! www.facebook.com/romerook) and I love the raw tone and beefed up mids this guitar provides. Quality: This is a really great quality item for the price! It has a smooth, thin neck. Perfect for shredding. The 24 Jumbo frets really let you go as fast as you want to. I love this guitar. It's going to be with me for awhile. I think it will last me that long too. Value: Oh wow. Let me just say, you won't find a better guitar for that price. It's a $500 guitar that plays like a $1500 guitar.. Manufacturer Support: I've never dealt with the company, but I've owned a Schecter before, and it was the best guitar I've ever had! And I've seen a noticeable perk in people playing Schecters. They're definitely a great brand! The Wow Factor: I think everyone who is serious about playing metal should at least give Schecter a try! Definitely get what you pay for, maybe more! Overall: I'm a straight up metalhead. I play anything and everything on the metal side of music. From Metallica, to Meshuggah, to Structures, to Impending Doom, to Dying Fetus. This is a metal guitar, that's for sure!
Style of Music: I'm a Christian musician! Metal, Deathcore, Death Metal, Djent, Rock, 80s Metal.
