Schecter USA Custom Shop Traditional Wembley HSS Guitar – Seafoam Green Aged Nitro
The Schecter USA Custom Shop Traditional Wembley HSS captures rich, articulate recordings through its slim yet substantial neck profile, featuring a custom 'C' shape that enables precise intonation and smooth bends across its 22 Jescar Premium German Stainless Steel frets. The Seafoam Green Aged Nitro finish delivers both visual character and acoustic benefit—the aged nitro allows the alder body to resonate freely without dampening, while the thin finish encourages natural harmonic bloom and sustain. Handcrafted in Schecter's USA Custom Shop, this guitar balances vintage resonance with modern session versatility through its HSS pickup configuration and premium hardware.
Recording & Playability
The roasted maple neck paired with a rosewood fretboard provides a responsive playing surface that resists moisture and temperature fluctuations while maintaining consistent action for tight tracking. With a 12" fretboard radius, 1.67" nut width, and neck thickness ranging from .825" at the first fret to .865" at the 12th, this instrument delivers the ergonomic consistency needed for extended recording sessions and complex chord voicings across its 25.5" scale length.
Tonal Character & Control
The HSS configuration delivers three distinct recording voices: the Schecter USA Pasadena Plus™ bridge humbucker captures powerful lead tones with enhanced harmonics and presence for cutting through dense mixes, while the dual Schecter USA Darkside single-coils in the neck and middle positions provide warm, defined rhythm tones and articulate textures that sit naturally in a stereo mix. The Master Volume with Pull-to-Expand and Master Tone with Pull-to-Split controls, combined with the 5-Way Blade Switch, unlock tonal flexibility across multiple genres and production needs within a single session.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pickup configuration does this guitar have and what tones does it deliver?
The HSS setup pairs a Schecter USA Pasadena Plus humbucker at the bridge for powerful, high-output lead tones with enhanced harmonics, and dual Schecter USA Darkside single-coils in the neck and middle positions for warm, articulate rhythm tones and bright, chiming textures. The 5-Way Blade Switch combined with Pull-to-Split tone control on the Master Tone unlock multiple voice options across rock, blues, and progressive styles.
Is the neck comfortable for fast playing and does it have good stability?
Yes. The roasted maple neck features a slim custom 'C' profile designed for both fast playing and effortless bends, a 12" fretboard radius that suits precision work and chord shapes, and roasted maple with rosewood that resists moisture and temperature changes. Neck thickness ranges from .825" at the first fret to .865" at the 12th, and the 1.67" nut width balances comfort with playability.
What hardware and hardware features keep this guitar stage-ready?
The guitar ships with a Gotoh 510T-FE1 bridge offering smooth tremolo action and precise intonation, Gotoh Vintage Locking tuners for stable tuning and quick string changes, Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut for superior tone transfer, and Aged Chrome hardware that complements the Seafoam Green Aged Nitro finish. These are pro-level components built for reliability on the road and in the studio.
Why choose aged nitro finish over modern poly, and what does it do for tone?
Aged nitro is thinner and allows the alder body to resonate more freely than modern polyurethane, enhancing sustain, clarity, and harmonic complexity. The finish also develops an authentic worn aesthetic while delivering tonal benefits that justify its presence on a premium custom-shop instrument built for both visual character and acoustic performance.
What comes in the box and what are the dimensions?
Included are Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings (.010-.046) and a Vintage Tweed Wooden Case. The guitar features a 25.5" scale length, 1.67" nut width, and 12" fretboard radius. All hardware and electronic components are professional-grade and listed in the specifications above.
