VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: This guitar sounds absolutely amazing. Hands down, the most versatile guitar i've ever owned. The clean has an enormous range, from jazzy, warm clean sounds to the sharp, clear bite it's active pickups are known for. I was really surprised at how much clarity i got at even the most demanding gains. The highs sparkly, the mids are warm and present, and the lows are deep and percussive. The Floyd rose has already been beaten and abused by me, and every time i check the tuning, it stays SPOT ON. down to the cent. The push-pull tap is EXTREMELY useful when looking for that hard-to-find clean sound. Feature: Are you kidding me? The heelless set-neck, EMG active pickups, floyd rose tremolo, Grover tuners, a beautiful inlay and finish all for less than a grand??? This thing is LOADED. Ease of Use: From the minute i pulled it out of the box, it felt like a guitar i've had for years. Now, i've always preferred schecters, but this, was stellar even by their standards. The action was perfect, the tuning was perfect, the neck is speedy and smooth. My fingers just danced across the fretboard... Quality: I purchased the "blemished" item, and could not find one single significant defect. there was a TINY amount of surface scratches, like the kind a guitar gets after being played for about a week, but for the $230 i saved... definitely worth it. All schecters, in my experience, have ridiculously high quality standards, even with the flashy inlays and whatnot they like to put in. I've never had a problem Value: Come on. This is the best value there is. THE BEST. Manufacturer Support: never had to use schecter support The Wow Factor: This guitar is an aesthetic wonder. I bought it just because of its stunning features and drop-dead looks. And it was worth it. Overall: Buy this guitar. Or any other of Schecter's high end guitars. Zzounds customer service is unbeatable. The 4-payment plan is genius.

Sound: Well personaly me,I like the sound but if i did buy it i would probaly end up changing out the emg 89 and put in a 85 cause i play alot of heavy metal and i know that zakk wylde's set is a 81 and 85 but if you dont like that kind of stuff then you could just keep it in.The tone is so clear its not even funny.... Feature: I cant beleive that they can charge you just about 850 for a guitar with:emgs, an orig floyd rose,grover tuners and a set neck body.The best feature for me though has got to be the flord rose cause i like me some dive bombing, or thie ultra acces at the 24 fret. Ease of Use: It is like so not difficult to play if you have ever played a v guitar, and if you have a decent tube amp its is even better. Quality: This is a solid peic eof equiptment.there was not one deffect one the whole guitar from what i could see, i t was flawless.I would probaly be comfortable takeing just this guitar to my gigs buy its self without a backup.I think this guitar would last forever with the right person(in my opinion) Value: This guitar belongs up thyere with the gibson v guuitars and beyond.I just dont see how they can sell it sooooooooo cheap.This guitar is a once in a liftime chance cause i am 100% sure you will never find a guitar better in its price range. Manufacturer Support: dont own it The Wow Factor: The sex appeal is a 10 for sure but its not how the guitar looks if your a long time guitar player like me but how well it plays and this guitar has both good looks and great playibility. Overall: IF i had this guitar i would neever sell it if i had to buy another guitar i would buy this one again.
