Product Description

The Schecter S1 Custom electric guitar is an original design that will make you stand out in the crowd. Featuring a set mahogany three-piece neck with 'Ultra Access' that makes playing very comfortable. Schecter locking tuners and mother of pearl split crown inlays are also included.

Tuners: Schecter locking with Pearl Buttons

Schecter Locking Tuners with Pearl buttons feature a locking screw pin to lock the string into place for greater tuning stability. Details include a 19:1 gear ratio allowing for precise fine tuning adjustments, removable pearloid buttons, threaded peghead bushing, and a 10 mm diameter peg hole.

Fingerboard: Ebony

Ebony has a snappy, crisp attack with the density of maple, but with more brittle grains, oilier pores, and a stronger fundamental tone than maple. It has a tremendous amount of percussive overtones in the pick attack, that mute out shortly thereafter to foster great, long, sustain.

Pickups: Seymour Duncan Custom Custom SH-11/'59 SH-1N

Bridge: The Custom Custom SH-11 is the SH-5 Duncan Custom humbucker with an Alnico II magnet for warm and smooth highs, more midrange, and a spongier bottom end than the SH-5. It's a good choice for players who need a traditional vintage tone with increased output.

Neck: Late-'50s, vintage-correct, humbucker sound. Warm and crystalline clean tones. Full and bright distorted tones. Smooth sustain. Classic appointments include plain enamel wire, long legged bottom plate. Compared to the SH-55 Seth Lover.

Neck: Three Piece Mahogany

Made with three pieces of mahogany for extra stability. Three piece necks can withstand the test of time. Where standard necks may show aging defects from temperature and moisture changes throughout the years, the 3 piece neck will stay nice and straight for a lifetime of playability. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Schecter products.

"Schecter S1 Custom rocks!"
Overall: I've been playing for 11 years now and this guitar beats every guitar I owned! Fenders, Epiphones, a Gibson, you name it! The quality of this instrument is top-notch! Set-up right out of the box! Sustains are long, the finish is amazing, The locking tuners are the best tuners I've tried and the Seymour Duncan pickups on this thing are AMAZING! The Custom Custom in the bridge is punchy and the 59 in the neck position is great for blues, pop, jazz, you name it! I can pull off classic licks and solos! This thing is light, which is a good thing. It's a bit fatter than an SG but not that much. The neck on this thing is comfortable. I can't say anything bad about! Blows away the best SG's that I've played. Go and get it!!
Style of Music: Any kind of rock!

"Killer Guitar!"
Sound: The sound is just amazing, unplugged, it kinda is resonant (in my ears). The Seymour Duncans on this guitar ROCK! Feature: I love where the bridge volume is placed (the first knob, nearest to the bridge.) The tuners on this thing are great and the coil-tap feature is great as well. Ease of Use: The knobs are something you're suppose to get used to but other than that, this guitar is very playable. Quality: The quality on this thing is top notch. It beats the crap out of the Gibson Faded SG Special (Same price as well). More features than other same priced guitars.This guitar reminds me of an SG, DC Junior and a PRS combined! Value: Very cheap for the stuff you're gonna get! The best band for the buck I had! Manufacturer Support: I haven't dealt with manufacturer support yet. This guitar was packed well. The Wow Factor: The guitar is everything you would want in a guitar, sexy looks, great sound, coil-tap, great tuners and many more. The finish is amazing and the ebony fretboard is very bright and snappy. Overall: Great guitar for the price that you're gonna get!

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
