Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and bolt-on maple neck give this a punchy, focused voice with solid low-end weight, while the EMG Retro Active Hot 70 in the bridge delivers high-output, compressed bite that stays tight under heavy gain for metal rhythm work and cutting lead lines. The neck-position Sustainiac turns single notes into endless sustain, and its Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic modes let you shift between smooth held tones and screaming overtones for extended solos and ambient textures. Between the 25.5" scale with .009-.046 strings, the 14" radius with X-Jumbo stainless frets, and the Floyd Rose Special locking tremolo, note attack is bright and articulate with room for wide dive-bombs and vibrato — well suited to shred, hard rock, and modern metal players who lean on lead playing.
Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder FR-S in Green Reign
The Sun Valley Super Shredder FR-S is engineered for session work demanding fast position shifts and tonal complexity. Its thin, responsive bolt-on mahogany body paired with a Floyd Rose Special locking tremolo holds tuning through takes, while dual-mode electronics—an EMG Retro Active Hot 70 bridge pickup and a Sustainiac neck pickup—capture both punchy rhythm definition and harmonic-rich lead textures within a single tracking session. The 24 extra-jumbo fretboard accommodates precise bending and articulate picking techniques. Green Reign finish and black hardware complete an instrument built for producers and engineers tracking guitar parts across multiple genres.
Recording Comfort & Neck Design
The thin "C" profile neck measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret, enabling rapid position shifts during overdubs without hand fatigue. With a 25.5" scale, 14" fretboard radius, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, the board responds cleanly to both bending passes and muted rhythm patterns. The Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" locking tremolo maintains tuning stability session to session, critical for layered tracking, while the 2-way adjustable truss rod with heel-access spoke wheel allows straightforward setup adjustments between sessions.
Tone & Electronics for Mix Flexibility
The dual-pickup setup generates complementary recorded tones: the EMG Retro Active Hot 70 delivers controlled, articulate bridge captures suited to rhythm passes and melodic leads, while the Sustainiac neck pickup excels at harmonic sustain and atmospheric textures perfect for ambient layers and experimental takes. Independent controls include a master volume, tone control, 3-way pickup switch, 2-way on/off Sustainiac switch, and 3-way Sustainiac mode selector (Fundamental, Mix, Harmonic), powered by a double 9-volt battery compartment. This architecture adapts across clean picking sessions to high-gain lead overdubs, covering diverse production requirements within a single recording project.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections. In this case, there is an extra hole by the string retainer that is purely superficial and has zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and hard rock?
Yes. The combination of the EMG Retro Active Hot 70 bridge pickup, high-fret count (24 extra-jumbo), and Floyd Rose Special locking tremolo makes it ideal for metal and hard rock, with the Sustainiac neck pickup adding harmonic depth for progressive and extended-range playing.
How does the Sustainiac system work?
The Sustainiac neck pickup has an on/off switch and a 3-way mode selector (Fundamental, Mix, Harmonic) that lets you shape harmonic sustain and atmospheric textures independently from the bridge pickup. It is powered by a dual 9-volt battery compartment.
What is the neck profile and is it fast for lead playing?
The thin C-profile neck measures 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, enabling rapid position shifts without hand fatigue. Combined with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and a 14" radius, it is optimized for lead work, bending, and palm-muting.
Does the Floyd Rose tremolo keep the guitar in tune during heavy use?
Yes. The Floyd Rose Special Hot Rod locking tremolo is designed to maintain tuning stability during aggressive playing, and the 2-way adjustable truss rod with heel-access spoke wheel allows you to make setup adjustments as needed.
