Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between these two Banshee GT FR models?
Both units are identical Schecter Banshee GT FR guitars with the same specs, pickups (EMG 81/60), Floyd Rose tremolo, neck profile (0.748" at 1st fret), and mahogany/flamed maple construction. They differ only in B-Stock unit number and cosmetic blemishes, not function or hardware.
Are these suitable for drop tunings and metal?
Yes, both are engineered specifically for metal and hard rock, including drop tunings. The set-neck construction, carbon fiber reinforcement, and locking Floyd Rose tremolo provide the stability and tuning retention needed for aggressive playing and alternate tunings.
What makes the neck geometry suitable for fast playing?
The ultra-thin U-shaped profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th) paired with 24 X-Jumbo frets and an Ultra Access cutaway allows quick hand positioning without fatigue while maintaining full playability and upper-fret reach.
What does B-Stock mean for warranty and functionality?
B-Stock indicates minor cosmetic marks or blemishes only; both units are fully functional and structurally sound with complete manufacturer warranty coverage. No structural or electronic defects are present.
