Schecter Tori Ruffin Freak Juice Burst Traditional Guitar B0163
The Schecter Tori Ruffin Freak Juice Burst captures articulate, responsive tones in the studio with its Vintage "C" neck shape and Roasted Hard Rock Maple construction that enables precise finger work and consistent intonation across tracking sessions. The bolt-on construction provides clarity and sustain with straightforward hardware maintenance, while the vibrant Juice Burst finish with gold hardware creates visual character. This B-stock example shows a lateral crack at the 12th fret—see images for condition details.
Recording & Performance Characteristics
The 25.5" scale length and 14" fretboard radius balance comfort with controlled pitch accuracy, while 22 X-Jumbo frets enable smooth bends and articulate vibrato without fret noise. The neck measures 20.32mm at the 1st fret and 21.59mm at the 12th fret, supporting consistent hand positioning during overdubs. Schecter Locking tuners and a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut (42mm) maintain tuning stability across long recording takes and between sessions.
Tonal Range & Studio Versatility
The three-pickup configuration—Schecter USA Pasadena Plus bridge, Nick Johnston Atomic middle, and Pasadena Classic neck—delivers a broad tonal palette suitable for multiple mix positions, from cutting lead tones to warm, present rhythm textures. The Master Volume, Master Tone with Push/Pull coil-split functionality, and 5-way blade switch enable quick tonal adjustments during sessions, while the Wilkinson Two-Point Tremolo System provides smooth vibrato effects with reliable pitch control.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-stock mean?
B-stock means the guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections. This example has a lateral crack at the 12th fret; all playability and electronics are intact and operational.
Is this guitar suitable for metal or high-gain styles?
No. The Tori Ruffin Freak Juice is voiced for rock, blues, indie, and studio work. The pickups and character lean toward versatile, articulate tones rather than extreme gain or heavy distortion platforms.
What pickup configuration does it have?
Three pickups: Schecter USA Pasadena Plus (bridge), Nick Johnston Atomic (middle), and Pasadena Classic (neck). A Master Tone with Push/Pull coil-split and 5-way blade switch let you dial in high-output punch, balanced midrange articulation, or warm vintage sustain.
What are the neck specs and how do they feel?
The Vintage C-profile roasted hard rock maple neck measures 20.32mm at the 1st fret and 21.59mm at the 12th fret—a substantial but not bulky feel. The 25.5" scale, 14" fretboard radius, and 22 X-Jumbo frets balance comfort with precision for expressive bends and vibrato work.
Does the tremolo system stay in tune?
Yes. The Wilkinson Two-Point Tremolo System delivers smooth, controlled vibrato, and the guitar includes Schecter Locking tuners and a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut (42mm) to ensure reliable tuning stability across extended playing and recording sessions.
