zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Whether you're into Rock, Metal, Blues, or Jazz, this guitar will deliver the sound you're looking for. It comes in dark brown sunburst, vintage gold top, and vintage white finishes.

The Schecter Tempest Standard is a loud and proud mahogany bodied guitar that delivers a wide range of tones: classic rock, metal, blues are all at your fingertips, but with some creative knob tweaking, get jazzy or twangy. The Tempest Standard's design is completely unique. An semi-offset design with sweet finishes, this is a guitar that exudes some real mojo. We challenge you to find another mid-priced guitar with this kind of style, tone, playability, and quality because the Schecter Tempest Standard is anything but standard.

I would buy again if need be. My first schecter after owning several strats, epiphones and an SG. Probably the best I have had yet I feel as far as price involved and playability.

Sound
Sound and tone are great lots of variety.

Features
Like the tuners alot along with the volume and tone nobs which feel nice,big and chunky easier to dial in it feels than my other strat guitars. Nice string height no buzz yet. Nice neck with great kinda thick feel. Great looking style les Paul type thing tweaked abit very well done. Finish is beautiful.

Ease of Use
Very payable hard to put down. Works and sounds great with my danelectro pedals and digitech guitar rp50 processor. Sounds great without pedals or effects as well. Sweet tones thru my vox pathfinder amp.

Quality
Seems very well made no flaws i can see. Set up very well when first purchased.

Value
This is a great guitar for 500 bucks. Feels,plays and looks like it could sell for 700 to 900 dollar range. Had money left over for accessories which would not have happened with other guitars i was thinking of taking home but this was my final decision and Im glad as well was my wallet.
