Description
Schecter Omen Elite-7 Multiscale Lefty Black Cherry Burst
This left-handed seven-string tracks with clarity and punch thanks to its thin "C" neck profile and arched mahogany body with figured burl top. The multiscale design—ranging from 25.5" to 27"—provides extended low-end definition and ergonomic fretboard access across all seven strings, accommodating drop tunings, extended ranges, and tight tracking in dense mixes.
Recording Comfort & Response
The thin "C" neck measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th, enabling consistent finger positioning during long tracking takes and reducing hand strain during intricate passages. 24 jumbo frets on a 16" radius rosewood fretboard with pearloid line inlays deliver articulate note definition and smooth playability, while the Graph Tech Black Tusq XL nut (1.889" width) locks in stable pitch across all seven strings for reliable multi-take sessions.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond Heretic pickups—bridged and neck positions—capture articulate, high-output tones suited to modern production and metal tracking. The volume/tone control with five-way lever switch and metal knurled knobs provide quick mid-session tonal adjustments and layering flexibility, while the Hipshot 7-String Multiscale fixed bridge maintains rock-solid tuning stability across extended sessions without retuning between takes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a multiscale design, and why does it matter on a seven-string?
Multiscale means the scale length increases from treble to bass strings (25.5" to 27" here), improving ergonomics across a wider fretboard and tightening the low-end response without sacrificing playability. This design is especially useful for drop tunings and extended range because it maintains consistent string tension and articulation across all seven strings.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and progressive music?
Yes. The dual high-output Schecter Diamond Heretic pickups, tight low end, and aggressive character are specifically voiced for metal and progressive applications, and the Hipshot multiscale bridge ensures rock-solid tuning stability during aggressive playing.
What gauge strings come on this guitar?
The Omen Elite-7 Multiscale Lefty ships factory-strung with Ernie Ball 7-string gauge (.009–.062).
What is the neck profile, and will it suit someone coming from a six-string?
The thin "C" profile measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th, offering quick access and reduced fatigue compared to thicker profiles. This slim shape makes the transition from six-string easier and supports extended playing sessions without hand strain.
Is this a bolt-on or set-neck construction?
This is bolt-on construction with black 1-ply binding, which is standard for modern extended-range guitars and offers reliable playability and durability.
