Schecter Madness
Make no mistake about it. My dad (also a guitar player) and I simply LOVE our Schecter guitars. "Best bang for the buck" is how I would describe all of their guitars. Being that we prefer a Les Paul style guitar (mahogany set neck, and body) we tend to lean towards models with those features.
Here's a picture of my dad Steve holding his C-1 Classic with Vine of Life inlay, next to a S-1 Elite (left) and my Hellraiser C-1 FR (right). They're all truly amazing instruments, which we pick up more than occasionally in spite having Gibsons, etc. I think they are extremely underrated guitars which deserve more than a second look when considering other brands such as Ibanez, LTD / ESP, and Fender respectably.
I'll be touching on our C-1 Classic, and the Hellraiser (since I already wrote about the S-1 previously) in the future. While the C-1 Classic, and Hellraiser are very similar instruments ; they're actually completely different in terms of the aesthetics, and the electronics and of course the Hellrasier has a Floyd Rose / Schaller bridge. Aside from all the technicals which I'll touch on later ; I just wanted to give a shout out to Schecter for making an excellent "working man's" guitar, for not a lot of money that plays like a $2,000 guitar. My hat's off to you guys. You nailed it somehow. As for the company, I recently had a correspondence with them in leu of a whammy bar replacement for my Hellraiser C-1 FR. They corresponded immediately with me, and agreed to send me one quickly. Thanks guys!
