Schecter Synyster Standard Plus Guitar in Natural
The Synyster Standard Plus captures aggressive, articulate tones with the control and precision that modern recording demands. Its Ultra Thin C neck paired with an Ebony fingerboard and 24 Jumbo frets creates a platform built for fast tracking and punch-in flexibility, while the Quilted Maple top on Mahogany body provides both sustain and harmonic clarity in the mix. This is a purpose-built instrument for home-studio operators and session players seeking professional-grade hardware and electronics in a mid-tier package.
Playability & Recording Comfort
The 3-piece Mahogany neck with Ultra Thin C profile sits comfortably in the hand for extended session work, while the 25.5-inch scale and 1.626-inch nut width maintain standard spacing and rock-solid intonation stability across takes. The Ebony fingerboard with 24 Jumbo frets supports tight rhythmic work and articulate lead takes without wrestling with the instrument.
Tone & Studio Electronics
The Schecter Synyster Gates Signature Humbuckers deliver powerful, articulate output with the clarity needed to cut through both rhythm and lead layers in the mix, while the 3-Way Toggle switch, Master Volume, and Master Tone with Push Pull Coil Split let you dial in tonal character on the fly during session work. The Floyd Rose Special Hot Rod Locking Tremolo maintains tuning integrity through effects-heavy passages and keeps your recordings tight across multiple takes.
