Schecter Hellraiser C-7 FR S Left-Handed Electric Guitar Black Cherry
Description
Schecter Hellraiser C-7 FR S Left-Handed Electric Guitar – Black Cherry
This left-handed 7-string captures extended-range tones with a thin "C"-shaped neck that supports long tracking sessions, featuring a 26.5" scale and 24 X-Jumbo frets positioned on a 16" radius rosewood fretboard. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access and arched quilted maple top over mahogany ensure solid recording stability and visual character in studio footage. Built for tracking heavy material and layering complex arrangements across extended frequencies.
Recording & Construction Details
The neck measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret, providing consistent feel and intonation across tracking passes. Grover tuners and a 2-way adjustable truss rod maintain tuning stability between takes and allow quick setup adjustments, while the Floyd Rose nut (1.874" width) interfaces precisely with the Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo bridge for predictable pitch modulation and effects work.
Tracking & Sonic Character
The EMG 81-7 bridge pickup captures tight, articulate high-end detail that cuts through dense mixes, while the Sustainiac neck pickup with sustain circuit adds harmonic thickness and extended decay for layered, atmospheric parts. A double 9-volt clip-in battery compartment powers the active electronics independently, delivering consistent signal-to-preamp levels and headroom across all seven strings throughout extended recording sessions.
