Feature:
Simply the best.

Quality:
Again simply the best

Value:
I got this for £450 (GBP) at Music Live. It is one of the limited amount in the UK and i love it. other guitars in the same range dont have a hope in hell.

Desirability:
This is the greatest looking guitar i have ever seen along with all schecters realy.

Sound:
It has the perfect sound when used through a valve amp. Souds just as good through a solid state but you dont get the same feel. The only way it could be better is replacing the Hb-108's with Sh-8's (The one on the custom)

Ease of Use:
I picked it up and played the hardest riffs i know straight away perfectly. You can always get a great sound out of it and it will fit any metal or punk band.

Support:
I have never delt with the company personally but i have heard great things.

Overall:
This will last for aslong as i need it. I can see buying lots more schecters in the future

Feature:
The features are probably the best part. The way it looks makes everyone have to take a second look.

Quality:
Quality is flawless

Value:
Well...at this price...you would be better off buying an ESP/Ibanez/Jackson..etc. I got it for $479.99 because it was blemished, which was completely worth it!

Desirability:
The way this guitar is shaped and its design should leave you in awe, it does that to everyone else. Even those that don't play guitar.

Sound:
The sound it produces is really good! The floyed rose system on it is amazing. Some guitars...the strings have a habbit of breaking when using it, but not on this one!

Ease of Use:
It is easy to use, the neck is just a little thicker then I expected, but still great!

Overall:
This is definetly worth it...buy the guitar!

Feature:
The instrument cord that was included seemed to be cheap quality. Other than that, I rate this whole package a 10 +!

Quality:
This guitar seems to be of very high quality. It has the feel and finish of a much more expensive guitar. I believe that this guitar will last me for a good many years. Good solid construction.

Value:
This guitar was worth every penny paid for it and then some.

Desirability:
I had to have it! It was played by my favorite guitarist. When I looked into the instrument, the appeal was overwhelming. Now, I am the proud owner of a Schecter Synyster Standard electric guitar. In short time I have had it, I have already had four compliments on how beautiful it was.

Sound:
This guitar is the best sounding electric I have ever played. I use a 30 Watt Ibanez amp, and this guitar is simply amazing. It would probably sound better through a more expensive amp, but is wonderful as is. The pinch harmonics sound just like Synyster himself played them. Simply the best.

Ease of Use:
This guitar is so easy to use. If you are used to large fret like I am, this is the perfect guitar. The jumbo frets allow ample room for my fingers. I played the Seize The Day solo with this guitar. The notes flowed very natural. This guitar almost plays itself. There was no manual for this guitar. Also, if you are used to a lot of palm muting, the bridge moves very easily with the slightest touch of your palm, therefore changing the pitch of the notes. I was not impressed by this.

Support:
I have not had to deal with the support team.

Overall:
I think this is one guitar that I will never get rid of. It was everything I had hoped and then some. I chose this item because it was the guitar played by my favorite guitarist. I had to have it. When I actually checked into it's features, I fell in love with it.
