Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and flamed maple top pair warmth and sustain with bright top-end articulation, while the 25.5" scale, bolt-on neck, and hardtail bridge tighten the attack and keep notes clear and defined. The two Schecter Richter-6 humbuckers cover full-bodied rhythm crunch at the bridge and smoother, vocal lead tones at the neck, with a 3-way switch, master volume, and tone for quick changes. With 24 jumbo frets on a flat 14" radius and a thin neck profile, it leans toward rock and metal rhythm and lead playing, though the balanced voicing handles cleaner styles as well.
Schecter C-1 Standard Plus Double Cutaway Guitar in Purple Burst
The Schecter C-1 Standard Plus delivers balanced tracking and responsive articulation with its slim Thin "C" profile neck and Ultra Access double cutaway body. The Purple Burst finish showcases the figured maple top while the instrument maintains excellent sustain and clarity across its range, making it ideal for layering and stacking in multitrack sessions. Built for engineers tracking guitars through various signal chains and requiring reliable, predictable performance across overdubs and takes.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece roasted maple neck with precisely measured dimensions—20 mm at the 1st fret and 22 mm at the 12th fret—provides fast position shifts and reduced finger fatigue during long tracking days. 24 jumbo frets on a 14" radius roasted maple fingerboard with black dot and side dot inlays enable precise intonation across the fretboard, while the 2-way adjustable truss rod and 42 mm graphite nut maintain rock-solid tuning stability across multiple takes. The mahogany body with flamed maple top and bolt-on construction yields bright articulation paired with warm sustain—a combination that cuts through a dense mix without harshness.
Tone & Electronics
A pair of Schecter Richter-6 pickups with satin chrome covers capture articulate single-note definition and full-bodied chord work without muddiness in the midrange. The straightforward control layout—master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector—provides immediate access to three distinct tonal voices within a session, while the Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge with satin chrome hardware ensures stable tuning and direct resonance transfer to the body for tight, focused recordings.
