Schecter Nick Johnston Traditional Left Handed Electric Guitar — Atomic Coral
This left-handed Nick Johnston Traditional captures articulate, nuanced performances through its carefully voiced body contours and thin C-shape neck profile, supporting everything from detailed fingerpicking passes to aggressive lead takes.

Playability & Recording Response
The roasted maple neck with thin C-shape profile and 25.5" scale ebony fingerboard enable fast, consistent tracking across extended recording sessions. Bolt-on construction maintains tonal clarity and responsiveness at the bridge, while the 14" fretboard radius and 22 extra-jumbo frets allow smooth chord voicings and precise bending control during overdubs and lead arrangement work.
Tone Shaping & Session Control
Three Schecter Diamond Nick Johnston single-coil pickups deliver versatile, articulate tones suited to multiple recording contexts, controlled via a 5-way pickup selector with master tone and volume for shaping everything from transparent rhythm textures to punchy lead lines. The Diamond Vintage Tremolo bridge and Schecter locking tuners maintain pitch stability across multiple takes and enable expressive modulation without tuning drift during longer tracking sessions.
