Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and set mahogany neck lend warmth and sustain, while the ebony fretboard and 25.5" scale add clarity, tightness and articulate attack to the Schecter USA Pasadena humbuckers — the Plus bridge for cutting rhythm and lead work, the neck unit for rounder, vocal phrasing. The Fishman Powerbridge piezo adds a bright, string-detailed acoustic voice, and with independent volume and tone controls plus a 3-way output switch you can run magnetic, piezo, or a blend of both. That makes it well suited to rock, modern metal and progressive playing where a single instrument needs to jump between electric drive and acoustic-style passages mid-set.
Schecter C-1 E/A Classic Guitar Satin Vintage Pelham Blue B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock C-1 E/A Classic captures acoustic and electric character in a single tracking instrument. The thin "C"-shaped neck and 25.5" scale enable fast, precise playing across session work, while the Satin Vintage Pelham Blue finish commands studio presence. Minor edge blemishes typical of B-stock inventory are easily visible in closeup photos. Built for producers and engineers who need hybrid acoustic-electric versatility in the recording chain, this instrument combines traditional craftsmanship with modern dual-pickup electronics.
Recording-Ready Construction
The three-piece mahogany neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods ensures stable intonation across takes and overdubs, while the thin "C" profile measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th enables comfortable tracking sessions. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access opens upper-fret range for layered parts, and the ebony fretboard with 22 jumbo frets on a 14" radius delivers clean legato tracking and precise intonation under close microphone scrutiny.
Dual-Source Tone Shaping for Mix Integration
Dual Schecter USA Pasadena pickups—Plus bridge and standard neck—deliver magnetic tone that sits distinctly in a mix, while the Fishman Powerbridge piezo system layers in authentic acoustic resonance. Independent volume and tone controls for both magnetic and piezo circuits, plus a 3-way output switch and 3-way pickup selector, allow you to craft blended textures, isolate sources, and adapt tonal character across different song sections and production needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-stock mean, and is this guitar fully functional?
B-stock means this C-1 E/A is unplayed and fully functional in every way—tone, playability, and electronics are identical to new. Minor cosmetic edge blemishes are typical of B-stock inventory and have zero impact on structural integrity or performance. You receive the guitar at a significant discount with full manufacturer warranty coverage.
Can I use this guitar for both electric and acoustic sounds?
Yes. The dual pickup system—Schecter USA Pasadena magnetic pickups plus Fishman Powerbridge piezo—lets you blend both tones together or isolate them via the 3-way output switch and 3-way pickup selector. Independent volume and tone controls for each circuit give you creative flexibility for studio layering and live switching between electric and acoustic character.
What neck profile and scale does this guitar have?
The thin "C"-shaped neck measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.866" at the 12th, built on a 25.5" scale with 22 jumbo frets on a 14" radius ebony fretboard. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access upper-fret design makes quick finger movement and high-fret access smooth and comfortable.
What kind of construction and materials are used?
The body is mahogany with an arched top and cream multi-ply binding; the three-piece mahogany neck includes carbon fiber reinforcement rods for stability and responsiveness. Hardware includes a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut, Schecter locking tuners, TonePros T1Z tailpiece, and chrome hardware with metal knurled knobs.
How does this compare to other hybrid acoustic-electrics?
The C-1 E/A sits in the professional-grade category alongside models like the Ibanez AM93ME and Gibson Les Paul Special Tribute, offering independent magnetic and piezo tone shaping, carbon-reinforced neck stability, and set-neck construction for upper-fret access that many mid-tier hybrids don't provide at this price point.
