Description
Sound & Tone
The Fishman Fluence Modern set gives this C-1 a tight, high-output voice: the ceramic bridge pickup delivers aggressive, noise-free attack for palm-muted riffing and metal leads, while the alnico neck humbucker stays warm and articulate for cleaner passages and melodic soloing. Swamp ash and neck-thru construction add resonant sustain and a balanced midrange that keeps notes clear under heavy gain, and the 25.5" scale with a hardtail bridge tightens low-string definition. Push-pull coil-splitting and secondary voicings widen the range toward thinner, cleaner sounds, making it a fit for modern metal, progressive rock, and anyone needing one guitar to cover heavy rhythm and precise lead work.
Schecter C-1 SLS Custom Guitar Satin Black B-Stock 1946
The ultra-thin neck profile on this Schecter C-1 SLS Custom captures fast, articulate tracking in the studio with its 0.748" first-fret thickness, supporting clean takes across rhythmic patterns and lead overdubs. The neck-thru construction generates superior sustain and body resonance—essential for layered recordings—while the Ultra Access design streamlines tracking sessions that demand upper-fret precision. This B-Stock unit is unplayed and in excellent condition—minor cosmetic marks on the finish reflect dealer inventory status, not playability or structural integrity.
Build & Recording Stability
The Maple/Walnut/Padauk 7-Ply neck with two carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping and maintains setup consistency across tracking sessions and temperature-controlled environments. Combined with 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets, a 12"-16" compound radius fretboard, and Schecter locking tuners, this guitar stays in pitch between multiple takes and supports aggressive bending without fret noise. The Graphtech Black Tusq XL nut and Hipshot hardtail bridge anchor everything in place for reliable tuning stability across full sessions.
Tone & Recording Versatility
The dual Fishman Fluence Modern pickups—ceramic in the bridge for aggressive, high-output rhythm tones and alnico in the neck for warm, articulate lead response—deliver exceptional clarity and dynamic range that translates precisely to recording interfaces. Push-pull controls enable coil-splitting and secondary humbucker voicing, expanding your sonic palette within a single session. The swamp ash body contributes a resonant, balanced character that cuts through in any mix and records with natural definition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means the guitar is fully functional and unplayed with only minor cosmetic marks—full playability and structural integrity are guaranteed. You receive the same manufacturer warranty coverage as a standard retail model.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and hard rock?
Yes. The dual Fishman Fluence Modern pickups deliver high-output aggression, the 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets support aggressive bending, and the neck-thru construction anchors tight, focused tone ideal for metal, hard rock, and progressive work.
What pickup options are available with the coil-split controls?
The Master Volume features a push-pull coil split for the bridge pickup, and the Master Tone includes a push-pull secondary humbucker voicing control. This lets you switch between ceramic-bridge aggression and alnico-neck warmth without retuning or rewiring.
How does the neck profile feel, and will it handle fast lead work?
The ultra-thin C-profile neck measures 0.748" at the first fret and 0.787" at the 12th fret, paired with a 12"-16" compound radius, enabling fast, comfortable lead work and aggressive bending without fret sprout. The neck-thru Ultra Access construction also eliminates upper-fret obstruction for seamless access to high positions.
What keeps the tuning stable?
A Hipshot hardtail bridge, Schecter locking tuners, and a Graphtech Black Tusq XL nut work together to anchor intonation with zero drift, ensuring reliable live and studio performance.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
