Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and maple neck give this guitar a thick midrange foundation, while the 25.5" scale and .009–.046 strings keep the attack tight and the top end cutting. Dual EMG Retro Active Hot 70 pickups push a hot, articulate output that holds together under heavy gain, with the volume/volume/3-way layout letting you set distinct bridge and neck levels for rhythm and lead. With 24 X-Jumbo frets, a 14" radius and a Floyd Rose locking tremolo, it leans toward hard rock and metal lead work, fast legato runs, and dive-bomb-heavy playing.
Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder FR Electric Guitar Sea Foam Green B-Stock
The Sun Valley Super Shredder FR pairs a responsive Thin "C" neck profile with a 25.5" scale and 24 X-Jumbo frets for articulate note definition and smooth tracking during overdubs and lead tracking. The Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Locking Tremolo holds tuning through multiple takes and complex arrangement work. This B-stock unit carries a finish crack in the neck pocket but is otherwise fully functional and new.
Recording & Session Design
The bolt-on mahogany body with maple neck and rosewood fretboard produces clarity and presence across the frequency spectrum. The 14" fretboard radius and 1.625" nut width support clean two-hand technique during long tracking sessions, while offset/reverse dot inlays maintain visual reference at any angle under studio lighting. The metal knurled knobs with set screws eliminate unwanted gain changes between takes.
Pickup Character & Mix Integration
Dual EMG Retro Active Hot 70 pickups deliver focused, punchy midrange and controlled highs that cut through dense arrangements without harshness. The Volume/Volume/3-Way Switch configuration allows quick blending between neck and bridge voices mid-session, essential for finding the right tone across multiple song sections. The 9-volt clip-in battery compartment powers consistent active output across recording and overdub phases.

Is this guitar suitable for metal and high-gain playing?
Yes. The dual EMG Retro Active Hot 70 pickups are designed specifically for high-gain applications, delivering aggressive and articulate output.

What is the neck profile, and will it feel fast?
The Thin C-neck profile measures 0.787 inches at the first fret and 0.866 inches at the 12th fret, engineered for speed and precision. The 24 X-Jumbo frets, 14-inch fretboard radius, and 25.5-inch scale length combine for fast playing access and comfortable fretting.
How does the Floyd Rose Special tremolo maintain tuning stability?
The Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Locking Tremolo is Schecter's exclusive version that locks the nut and bridge saddles in place, keeping the guitar in tune even during aggressive tremolo use, divebombs, and demanding live or studio sessions.
