Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with a burl top gives the C-6 Pro FR a warm, midrange-forward foundation, while the high-output passive Schecter Diamond Decimator pickups push tight, articulate attack with long sustain — clear enough for fast riffing yet thick enough for singing lead lines. The 25.5" scale keeps low tunings defined and string tension firm, and the Wenge fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and an ultra-thin neck supports rapid legato and upper-register soloing. Between the Floyd Rose Special tremolo for dive bombs and the push-pull volume with 3-way switching, it lands squarely in modern metal and hard rock territory while still covering bluesier, sustained lead work.
Schecter C-6 Pro FR Electric Guitar Charcoal Burst B-Stock 1698
The ultra-thin 'C' neck profile on this C-6 Pro FR delivers immediate comfort and speed for extended studio sessions, with dimensions measuring .748" at the first fret tapering to .787" at the 12th—a geometry built for tracking lead passages and capturing fluid fingerboard articulation. The Wenge fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and 14" radius provides the kind of responsive playing surface that rewards both precision and aggression in the recording environment. Designed for producers and engineers who demand professional-grade hardware and electronics without compromise, this Indonesian-built instrument pairs a mahogany body with a burl top and serious vibrato technology for studio-grade tonal consistency.
Recording Performance & Hardware
The Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' locking tremolo system (a Schecter exclusive) maintains tuning stability through dramatic pitch manipulation and extended takes, while the 1.625" nut width and 25.5" scale length create an ergonomic platform for both standard tunings and lower registers in the mix. Metal knurled knobs with set screws ensure reliable control adjustments during overdubs, and the 2-way adjustable truss rod with 4mm Allen nut allows precise neck relief optimization to maintain recording consistency across sessions.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond Decimator pickups deliver articulate, high-output passive tone with impressive clarity and sustain across the entire frequency range, capturing definition in dense mixes. The volume push-pull control and dedicated tone knob with 3-way switch configuration provide versatile shaping options during tracking and overdubs, whether cutting aggressive metal riffs or dialing in bluesy sustain for session flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and what should I expect?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with complete structural and tonal integrity, but carries minor cosmetic imperfections—scratches, dents, or finish marks that do not affect playability, electronics, or sound. You receive the full manufacturer warranty and the same professional specifications as a new unit at a discounted price.
Is this guitar suitable for beginners, or do I need advanced experience?
This model is designed for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The ultra-thin C-neck profile and aggressive tone profile suit players comfortable with metal, hard rock, and extended lead work; it's not ideal for jazz, folk, or country styles. Beginners are better served by a thicker, more forgiving neck profile.
How does the Floyd Rose tremolo work, and will I need to maintain it?
The Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' locking tremolo uses a locking nut to stabilize pitch during dramatic bend and whammy effects, so the guitar stays in tune through aggressive playing. Like all Floyd systems, it requires periodic maintenance—string changes take a bit longer due to the locking mechanism, and the trem cavity should be kept clean.
What pickups are installed, and can I change them?
The C-6 Pro FR ships with Schecter Diamond Decimator pickups in both bridge and neck positions, tuned for high output, articulate tone, and impressive sustain. They are passive pickups and can be swapped for aftermarket options if needed, though the Decimators are engineered specifically for this guitar's voice.
What is the neck profile, and how does it compare to other extended-range guitars?
The ultra-thin C-neck measures 0.748 inches at the first fret and tapers to 0.787 inches at the 12th fret, designed for speed and precision. It sits between a thin shred profile and a traditional metal guitar neck; compared to Ibanez RG and Jackson Dinky designs, it offers similar fast playability with a slightly fuller feel under the hand.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $49 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
