Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with ebony top and 25.5" scale gives this C-1 a firm low end and clear, cutting attack, with the dense ebony fretboard and bolt-on roasted maple/purpleheart neck adding definition and snap to fast riffing. The Diamond '78 humbuckers respond dynamically for thick rhythm crunch and sustaining leads, while the 2-way coil split thins things out for cleaner, more articulate chord work. Between the 24 X-Jumbo frets, flatter 14" radius, and Wilkinson tremolo, it sits comfortably in rock, metal, and blues territory where soloing and vibrato work matter.
Schecter C-1 Exotic Ebony Electric Guitar Natural Satin B-Stock
The C-1 Exotic is engineered for studio and stage versatility, offering a thin 'C' neck profile and satin finish that enables fast, comfortable tracking and overdub work. The mahogany body with ebony top and arched contour delivers focused resonance and sustain, while its ergonomic design supports long session hours at the mic or in the control room. The refined tonal character and well-engineered construction make this instrument equally at home tracking heavy riffs, layering ambient textures, or capturing expressive lead lines across rock, metal, and blues productions.
Playability & Feel
The roasted maple/purpleheart multi-ply neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping while maintaining resonance, paired with a thin 'C' neck shape that facilitates quick position shifts and comfortable fretting hand placement. An ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and 14" radius supports both aggressive picking techniques and precise chord work, while the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.653" width) and Schecter locking tuners ensure stable tuning and reliable string retention.
Tone & Electronics
Paired Schecter Diamond '78 pickups (bridge and neck) capture articulate, dynamic response with a 2-way coil split toggle for tonal flexibility across different mix contexts, while the Wilkinson WVS50IIK tremolo bridge provides both vibrato modulation and tuning stability for expressive takes. The volume, tone, and 3-way pickup selector controls grant immediate access to a broad tonal palette without unnecessary complexity, making fast switching between rhythm and lead tones efficient during recording and production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional and plays and sounds identical to new, but has minor cosmetic imperfections: white marks on the inside of the upper horn. These surface marks have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and hard rock?
Yes. The thin 'C' neck, 24 X-Jumbo frets, and articulate Schecter Diamond '78 pickups with coil split are designed specifically for rock, metal, and hard rock. The Wilkinson tremolo bridge provides both vibrato expression and tuning stability for aggressive playing.
What pickup options does the coil split give me?
The 2-way coil split toggle allows you to reduce output and narrow the tonal character of each pickup for lighter, more articulate tones alongside the full-coil sound. Combined with the 3-way selector and dedicated volume and tone controls, you have broad tonal range from a single pickup set.
How stable is the neck and tuning?
The roasted maple and purpleheart neck features carbon fiber reinforcement rods to resist warping while preserving resonance. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut and Schecter locking tuners ensure stable tuning, making this guitar road-ready for touring and long studio sessions.
What genres is this guitar not ideal for?
The C-1 Exotic is optimized for rock, metal, blues, and hard rock. It is not designed for jazz, folk, or country applications, where different tonal characters and playability profiles are typically preferred.
