Description
Sound & Tone
The semi-hollow maple body and set-neck construction give this 12-string a chiming, harmonically dense voice with airy resonance and long sustain, while the dual Diamond Tubebucker humbuckers keep the octave courses warm and articulate rather than thin. The shorter 24.75" scale adds to the thickness and looseness under the fingers, favoring ringing open chords, arpeggiated figures and layered rhythm parts. With two volumes, two push-pull tones and a three-way switch, it moves from jangly bridge-position shimmer to rounder neck-pickup body, suiting jangle pop, post-punk, alternative rock and studio overdub work.
Schecter Wayne Hussey Corsair-12 Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar Ivory
The Wayne Hussey Corsair-12 captures the distinctive chime and natural resonance of a semi-hollow 12-string design—assets that translate directly to recorded tracks with character and dimension. Built with a maple body and set-neck construction, this instrument delivers the harmonic complexity and sustain that semi-hollow architecture brings to layers and arrangements. The thin 'C' neck profile supports comfortable tracking sessions and overdub work, while the ivory finish with gold hardware and multi-ply binding projects the visual refinement expected in studio documentation and promotional materials.
Playability & Feel
The 24.75" scale paired with a thin 'C' neck shape measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the twelfth fret enables rapid movement between fretboard positions and reduces hand fatigue during extended tracking takes on the 12-string configuration. Ebony fretboard with 22 medium frets and a 14" radius provides a smooth, consistent playing surface essential for precision tracking, while glow-in-the-dark side dot markers and mother-of-pearl Mission UK design inlays support low-light studio sessions. The Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut at 1.771" width is precisely dimensioned for the 12-string setup, and Grover tuners lock in tuning stability between takes and across multiple sessions.
Tone & Recording Character
Dual Schecter Diamond Tubebucker pickups in both neck and bridge positions capture warm, articulate response across the frequency spectrum with the harmonic richness that semi-hollow construction delivers to mix layers. The 2 Volume / 2 Tone (Push-Pull) / 3-Way Switch configuration enables quick tone shaping between different takes and session segments, while the Diamond Adjustable-12 bridge maintains precise intonation and action across all twelve strings for consistent recorded results.
