Things To Know
Schecter C-1 50th Anniversary Electric Guitar

Hey everybody, this is Justin at zZounds and these are some things to know about the Schecter C-1 50th Anniversary model. This is a really cool 50th anniversary guitar for a couple reasons. One thing to know about it is the pickups. These are the anniversary editions of Schecter’s Sunset Strip bridge pickup and the Pasadena Classic neck pickup, and those are also accompanied by a push-pull pot right here on the tone knob.
Some other cool parts about it are that it has an ebony fretboard, brass circle inlays right here, and you can see the strip on the back of the neck, which is a maple, walnut, and padauk combination. So it’s a really cool orientation of wood, and it just sounds great with these pickups in this wood combination.
