Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with flamed maple top gives this C-1 a warm, sustaining core with added top-end definition, while the 25.5" scale and hardtail bridge keep low notes tight and attack precise. Dual Schecter Richter-6 humbuckers voice it punchy and articulate across the range, with the bridge suited to driven rock and metal rhythm work and the neck position offering a fuller tone for leads. Wired simply with master volume, tone, and a 3-way switch, it covers rock, metal, and alternative playing, and the 24 jumbo frets with Ultra Access make upper-register soloing straightforward.
Schecter C-1 Standard Plus Double Cutaway Guitar in Blue Fade
The C-1 Standard Plus tracks and records with clarity and punch, delivering a modern playing experience through its Ultra Access double cutaway design and Thin "C" profile neck that enables fast, accurate tracking sessions. The flamed maple top on a mahogany body produces warmth and sustain that translates well to both clean and driven recordings, while the satin finish hardware and flat top with forearm contour reduce fatigue during long studio tracking days. This is a workhorse instrument built for serious home-studio owners, producers, and engineers who demand both playability and tonal character that cuts through a mix.
Playability & Build Quality
The 3-piece roasted maple neck with Thin "C" profile (20 mm at the 1st fret, 22 mm at the 12th) combines stability with comfort, enabling consistent note articulation across session takes, while the roasted maple fingerboard features a 14" radius and 24 jumbo frets for smooth, expressive playing that records cleanly. Bolt-on construction with a Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge and satin chrome hardware ensures tuning stability through session work and resists fingerprints, keeping your recordings tonally consistent.
Tone & Recording Character
Dual Schecter Richter-6 pickups with satin chrome covers capture articulate, punchy tones across the full frequency range, controlled by a master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector for session-ready voicing options that adapt to tracking needs. The 25.5" scale length and mahogany-with-maple-top construction produce excellent sustain and harmonic resonance, sitting equally well in rock, metal, and alternative production contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this guitar suitable for beginners, or do I need intermediate skills?
The C-1 Standard Plus is built for intermediate to advanced players and professionals. While its ergonomic design and fast neck make it accessible, it's optimized for rock, metal, and alternative styles that benefit from technique and speed rather than entry-level application.
What kind of tones should I expect from the Richter-6 pickups?
The dual Schecter Richter-6 pickups deliver articulate, punchy tones across the full frequency range with warm sustain and harmonic resonance. The master tone and 3-way selector let you dial from bright, cutting lead tones to thicker, fuller rhythm voicing suited to rock and metal.
How comfortable is this for long playing sessions?
The Thin C-profile neck (20 mm at the 1st fret, tapering to 22 mm at the 12th) combines stability with natural hand feel, while the flat top with forearm contour minimizes fatigue during extended play. The satin finish hardware and overall ergonomic design make it ideal for gigging and studio work.
What is the neck construction, and how stable is it?
The neck is a 3-piece rooted maple design that provides excellent stability and sustain. Combined with the mahogany body, flamed maple top, 25.5" scale length, and Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge with satin chrome hardware, tuning stability is excellent for demanding live and studio environments.
What genres is this guitar best suited for?
The C-1 Standard Plus is optimized for rock, metal, hard rock, and alternative music. Its tonal character and electronics are not designed for jazz, blues, or folk applications.
