Quilted-Maple-Topped Mahogany Body

Maple and mahogany are a classic tonewood combination for solidbody electric guitars. Maple delivers a small boost in the highs for a well-rounded bright tone, while mahogany keeps things deep and dark with a push on the lower and middle frequencies, while yielding a healthy dose of sustain. This Schecter Hellraiser's body features a comfortable contour with a beveled top, and a deep cut to give your fingers plenty of room to reach those higher frets.

Pair of Active EMG Pickups

A pair of EMG active humbuckers will fuel your amp with a powerful overwound vintage PAF-style sound. Each pickup boasts a slick brushed black metal-works cover. The EMG 57 at the bridge uses alnico V magnets and steel pole pieces for a hearty helping of headroom and punch. The EMG 66 at the neck also uses alnico V magnets, with ceramic pole pieces to bring out crisp clarity in the higher frequencies. Take advantage of different gain settings to hear read more these babies wail.

Ultra-Thin 3-Piece Maple Neck and Ebony Fingerboard

The Hellraiser Hybrid C-1 features a maple neck to bring in a bright snap to your notes, topped with a smooth ebony fretboard. With 24 frets at your disposal, you'll enjoy hours of pushing your fingers to the max.

"This is the ultimate metal guitar"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
If you're looking for the ultimate modern metal guitar this is the beast to get. The sound is unbelievable it made my ltd ec 1000 sound like child's play after I hooked it up. The emgs r crisp even on full blown distortion making sweeping crisp and the 2 volume knows give ya a optional kills witch if you insist on using one. The locking tuners making tuning a breeze no matter what. And the neck is the best feeling neck you will ever use makes all those big time name guitar company put in shame. I used Gibsons fenders Jacksons ltd Ibanez. If you love playing anything this guitar will deliver. Don't hesitate buy one!

I been playing for 8 years and play at home
