Description
Sound & Tone
Mahogany body and neck give this guitar a thick, warm foundation, while the ebony fretboard and 25.5" scale tighten up the attack for clear note separation and firm low-end definition. The Schecter USA Synyster Gates Signature humbucker at the bridge is high-output and articulate, cutting through dense rhythm tones for palm-muted riffing and pushing forward on leads, while the Sustainiac neck pickup adds endless singing sustain with selectable fundamental, mix, and harmonic modes for feedback-style swells and vocal-like solo lines. Paired with the Floyd Rose bridge for dive-bombs and vibrato work, it's aimed squarely at modern metal, hard rock, and progressive playing.
Schecter Synyster Custom-S Guitar Satin Gold Burst B-Stock 0664
The Synyster Custom-S is engineered for studio tracking and live performance consistency. Its ultra-thin 'C' neck profile and set-neck construction with Ultra Access reduce hand fatigue during long recording sessions, while the stable platform supports both articulate single-note passages and extended harmonic work. The bridge and neck pickup pairing deliver high-output clarity and harmonic complexity—critical for cutting through dense mixes and capturing definition on every take. The B-stock designation reflects cosmetic considerations only—the underlying instrument remains fully spec'd and ready for professional recording use.
Playability & Recording-Ready Neck Design
The mahogany 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping and maintains tonal consistency across session-length playing windows, while the ultra-thin 'C' profile measures .748" at the first fret and .787" at the 12th for reduced hand tension and precise note articulation. The ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16" radius supports clean definition on rhythm and lead parts, with the fret size enabling sharp transient capture in the mix.
Tone & Electronics for Studio Versatility
The Schecter USA Synyster Gates Signature Humbucker bridge pickup captures high-output articulation with clear harmonic definition, ideal for layered rhythm tracking and cutting lead takes. The Sustainiac neck pickup adds harmonic sustain and tonal complexity via dedicated controls, expanding the textural palette available within a single session. Independent 2-way and 3-way switches govern Sustainiac engagement and mode selection (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic), enabling rapid tonal variation without rewiring or pickup swaps during production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock indicates the instrument is fully functional and spec'd to professional standards, but carries minor cosmetic imperfections. The electronics, hardware, neck, and electronics are all ready for immediate use; only the finish or hardware presentation may show marks from handling or display.
Is this guitar suitable for jazz or blues?
No. The Synyster Custom-S is optimized for metal, progressive, and hard rock styles. Its aggressive pickup voicing, Sustainiac electronics, and design philosophy prioritize articulation and sustain over the warmth and responsiveness required for jazz or blues.
What makes the Sustainiac neck pickup different from a standard humbucker?
The Sustainiac is a active sustainer that generates harmonic feedback and sustain via dedicated controls. The 2-way On-Off switch and 3-way Mode switch (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic) let you blend natural tone with sustained harmonics, adding dimensional complexity to leads and chords without sacrificing signal clarity.
What neck profile and dimensions should I expect?
The ultra-thin 'C' profile measures .748 inches at the first fret and .787 inches at the 12th, designed to minimize hand fatigue during extended play. The 25.5-inch scale balances extended range capability with familiar playability across 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16-inch radius ebony fretboard.
How does the Floyd Rose bridge affect tuning stability?
The Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge provides tuning stability and allows for dive-bomb and whammy effects common to metal and progressive play. Paired with Grover tuners and the carbon-reinforced mahogany neck, the guitar resists drift during aggressive string bending and tremolo use.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $90 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
