Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR S Electric Guitar Black Cherry B-Stock 0835
Description
Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR S Electric Guitar Black Cherry B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock Hellraiser C-1 FR S delivers a fast, comfortable neck profile with its thin 'C' shape and 25.5" scale, enabling rapid position shifts and extended passages in the studio. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access provides excellent upper-fret playability while maintaining the resonant sustain that mahogany bodies are known for, making it an excellent choice for layered guitar tracking and harmonic textures. Minor cosmetic blemishes typical of B-stock inventory do not affect functionality or tonal characteristics.
Playability & Recording Capability
The 3-piece mahogany neck with Thin 'C' profile (measuring .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th) balances comfort with speed across the rosewood fretboard fitted with 24 X-Jumbo frets. Set-neck joinery combined with Ultra Access cutaway design enables unrestricted access to the highest positions without sacrificing sustain or body resonance—critical for capturing clean high-register takes and sustain-heavy passages in a home-studio environment.
Tone & Session Versatility
The active EMG 81 bridge pickup paired with a Sustainiac® neck pickup produces aggressive high-end articulation and infinite sustain capabilities controlled via dedicated Intensity and Mode switches (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic), allowing flexible texturing across rhythm and lead parts. A double 9-volt clip-in battery compartment powers the onboard electronics, while the Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo with 1.625" Floyd Rose nut maintains tuning stability during intense tracking sessions and dive-bomb effects.
