best guitar for the money in my opinion. finding one is another story.
Sound
This guitar is extremely versatile. You can get a nice fat humbucker sound or a fenderlike single coil. Don't get me wrong, nobody will mistake it for a fender but it is a nice clean thin sounding setting. Hard rock to smooth jazz, this is an all in one guitar.
Features
No tremelo but that is why i got it. it actually stays in tune unlike my jackson with a floyd rose. pretty simple no frills instrument. just the way i like it.
Quality
pretty much perfect... but its just a black paint job. how do you screw that up? keep it clean, smudges show up like crazy.
Value
best guitar for the money in my opinion. that goes for the brand as a whole.
The Wow Factor

"Blemished guitar? where?"

This is a guitar with the power to rock the world into submission! I like every single thing about this guitar. This is the ax i choose. All ive ever heard is good things from others about this guitar so for me i had to try it out. But the guitar speaks for itself. If youre looking for a new guitar and not sure what to get and money is an object you got to try this out. This guitar alone is enough to make Schecter my new favorite brand. Im inspired to play better by this guitar. If youre not sure if its worth it, turst me it is.
Sound
I cant believe the variations in sound that im getting out of this guitar. With most guitars i play that have a very similar pickup and switch setup it seems, to me at least, that when switching between pickups i just get slightly diferent variations in the same sound, and i generaly just use one or 2 positions for all the music i play. With this guitar im getting totally unique sounds on every position, and i find myself constantly switching to mess with new sounds. I like all types of music and generally lean towards rock, and this baby is the only guitar i played that can stand up to the challenge. It has a sound you have to hear for yourself.
Features
Most reviews have gone over all of these. I personally like that it doesnt have a floyd rose. Ive played with locking tremolo before and the headache of trying to keep the tremolo level with spring tension and string tension. it just seems more a pain than anything else for me and its so easy just to reach up the neck and tune a string. This guitar has the perfect features for me and ive grown to love the simplicity of it all. This thing rocks!
Ease of Use
Sweet and Simple. Instantly i can totally change the guitar to play for a whole new genre. Feels great to play. The neck and frets accomidate quick smooth play. It feels as though i play better because its so easy to play.
Quality
It seems so sturdy and such good quality of parts. I just keep looking all the parts over and i love the construction. It is made to play. I actually bought mine from this site as a "blemished" guitar and saved over 100 bucks. I was so nervous about doing this until i saw the guitar and it looked great. I thought there would be a huge gash down the back or something, but the only thing i can see are some very minor scratches from normal play that are inevitable. Nothing i wouldnt have done over time anyway. If you want to buy one to hang up and collect buy new. If youre going to play i say risk it since you get the 30 day return policy if you dont like it and you get same guitar with same warranty just like new with nothing more than normal blemishes. As far as dependiblity goes, bring it on Murphys Law!
Value
Are you kidding me? Is this a good value? please... Ive never seen such a value. This is all a matter of opinion, but ive played les pauls and several very nice guitars. And gibson is my old favorite and i love the les paul still. But i like this guitar more hands down. There may be a better all around guitar for me, but i havent seen it. Why pay more for less is what i say.
Manufacturer Support
I only hear great things about the support, but i have no expierence with them to rate it.
The Wow Factor
This guitar has the "sex appeal". I was broke and I wanted this guitar so bad i had to make it happen.

You definitely get more than you pay for when compared to the other guitars in the same price range, which just don't impress me as this one does any how. Quality + innovation= BONUS
Sound
This is , especially for the dough, one super sweet ax. The Duncan pick-ups and variety of positions bring all the mood and harmonic ambience you could want to the sound of this puppy, and the super-smooth neck blends flawlessly to the body on it in the back, which only serve to improve the mahogany's solid sustain and balanced feel. This is a stright up Cadillac I tell you, with a blazing hot sound if that's what I want for the thick, deep, and expressive sound it makes it easy to draw out of it, or bright clean clear sound if that's what your heart desires, with that on-point timing and warmth that you can feel up and down your spine.
Features
Add that slick luster paint job and neck width and comfort that was made to be held, with the "zero" neck joint, and looks that most friends I've asked think are custom until I tell them they are standard, along with that black chrome hardware to really complete the look, and although I hate to admit it but love to play it, it plays AT LEAST as good as my PRS, for MUCH less- even though some of the hardware of course doesn't go there without the extra $$$ (tuners).
Quality
I know I've never had a single regret with this guitar. Zero mechanical problems. If I'm forced to consider the one thing I would change, I'd say it needs locking tuners as it goes out of tune quicker that i'd like,; but it makes you want to jam on it so hard, who can really blame it?
Manufacturer Support
Excellent- I called to ask about the woods used, the standards for manufacturing, etc. which were all good, (once again) especially at theat price and quality. I haven't had a problem to need support help, but after them taking the time to share the information they did with me and such just being cool, I'm sure support shouldn't be much different.
