This guitar will absolutely shred a friend and myself went down to guitar center for a couple of hours, wasnt even planning on buying anything. After a while of looking i decided to try the C-1 and wow was i blown away. My friend was playing a jackson of the same value and there was no comparison the schecter destroyed it in all ways. The active pickups dont get muddy even under extremely high gain, we decided to play some "Suicide and Redemption" and had an employee thinking this guitar cost twice as much.

Well not too sure what to say here, except if you play guitar it shouldn't be that hard to figure out lol.

Seems like the guitar is built like a tank, ive only had it a couple of days but im lovin' the FR.

I believe this guitar could be priced for double what i gave for it

Never had to deal with them, dont expect to either. But from what everyone says about Schecter's support, it seems awesome.

The actives go great with this guitar, very good for metal. The stock duncans are really good, but I may upgrade to some EMG's at some point. Good sustain with the mahogany body and a pretty warm sound.

The features I like best: 1) very good, low action and extremely easy to play 2) the vol/vol/tone switch setup means you can use the selector as a killswitch. 3) licesed Floyd Rose is well built, stays in tune VERY well, no complaints 4) the finish and metal used on the hardware looks great 5) the pickups are very good, especially at this price

Very easy to use if...umm...you know how to play a guitar

Very, very quality instrument, like every Schecter I've picked up (C1- Classic, Hellraiser, C-1 Plus). Even though the price is low, don't get it confused with a midrange guitar. Price may be midrange, but the sound and quality is comparable to a guitar worth double the money.

This guitar should cost a lot more money. Period.

Schecter support is unreal. If there was an 11 here I would give it to them. I thought I had a problem with my guitar, (turns out it was my amp) and sent them a message on their website. The next day I got two emails from them telling me that UPS would come pick up the guitar and they would pay all the shipping and handling. Didn't need to actually send it to them in the end, but definately made me like them more. They are not the biggest name out there yet so they still feel like a small custom shop that really cares about what they sold you.

The metal on the hardware is aweseome, which you can't tell from the pictures, and the white binding with the gloss black looks really fantastic. Definately a guitar you appreciate more in person than in online pictures. I also love the shape of the headstock, and the way the body is cut. Just really, really nicely done.

The sound is amazing, especially for the price. i might swap the pickups out for some duncan invaders

switch, knobs, locking nut, and floyd rose bridge. what more do you need?

This is what got me. When it come it is very sexy and set up to play. The string change and tuning is the problem. i dont know if it is my guitar or me. when i change the strings the bridge either sinks or goes too high. when it is correct, i try to tune the first three strings and that works fine. then i tune the last three which makes the first three go out of tune, even if i lock the nut.

This is the best quality guitar for the price.

I have played ibanez and jackson guitars that are twice the price but this has the best feel and look

havent used them yet.

one sexy beast.

This guitar sound absolutely amazing. The Duncan Designed HB-105's (which are the Duncan Designed version of the Seymour Duncan Blackouts... same specs) take any kind of music you play beatifully. I'd have to say pumping it with distortion is the most fun but i was blown away when i heard the cleans. The guitar also has some pretty impressive sustain, especially when you crank the overdrive (have fun with divebombs :) ).

The guitar comes with allen wrenches and a whammy bar (standard), but also includes an instrument cable. this cable might not be Monster quality but hey, its a spare cable. The guitar features a Vol/Vol/Tone EQ setup, which is fun because you can mute one pickup and use the 3-way switch as a killswitch. However, I don't really ever use that except for one solo I like to play, and the 3 knobs are kind of crammed together. I think a Vol/Tone setup would've suited this guitar better because the neck pickup volume knob crowds my playing a little. A minor issue, but still, just voicing my opinion. The Licensed Floyd Rose is NOT a cheap immitator of the original. Stays in tune great, plays great, and it keeps the cost of the guitar down to the ridiculous price it is at. The only other thing it had was a set-neck with Schecter's ultra-access neck joint (those things are amazing), but again, the bolt-on keeps it at the great price its at.

The Floyd Rose might take some getting used to for newer players, but as long as you do some research or just have a sense of how it works you'll be setting it up yourself in no time. This was my first guitar with a Floyd and I set it up myself with my own gauge strings. Its really not that hard.

This guitar has some weight to it due to the mahogany body, which makes it feel a bit more durable that other guitars. Seems like its going to last a long time.

For price/feature value, this guitar is great. You get a killer guitar for a ridiculous price.

Haven't had to deal with them. However, I've tried to get a hold of Schecter before and have heard from Schecter dealers that they are a pain in butt to get a hold of.

Now, the gloss black finish didn't interest me too much, but the gloss white is just down right sexy. It's shiny snow white finish along with the gloss black binding makes it tasty eye-candy. The only thing that would make it look even hotter is black hardware. The black chrome looks great, but black would be sick.

This guitar sounds awesome. The sustain is awesome. Everything about the sound is awesome. There is also no "fret buzz". My other guitar has it and it sucks.

I bought the guitar used and it included all parts that i needed save some screws. Floyd Rose is good and the pickups rule.

This is what bugs me. The strings are too high from the fret board and it makes it hard to play higher up the neck. I find it hard to use one finger to bend up because the lower strings go into my finger nails. This is the only bad part but it is bad enough for me.

The guitar feels sturdy and I don't think I will need any support.

It is a good guitar for it's money.

My guitar came with only 2 screws in the back plate covering the bridge. I called schecter and left a message. They called back within 10 minutes and sent me the screws for free. The support was very good.

This guitar is wonderfully crafted and it seems like a good guitar. Beware though because looks aren't everything.
