Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with set-neck construction and 24.625" scale gives this guitar a thick, warm low end and sustain that blooms, while the ebony fretboard and maple neck keep note attack tight and articulate. The active EMG 81 in the bridge delivers high-output, compressed bite for tight rhythm chugging and cutting lead work, and the EMG 85 in the neck offers a fatter, rounder voice for solos and cleaner passages. It's aimed squarely at hard rock and metal players who want clarity under heavy gain, with X-jumbo frets and a 14" radius suiting aggressive bending and fast pentatonic phrasing.
Brand New Wylde Audio Blood Eagle Nordic Ice Guitar, setup ready to play with Schecter's full warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level is this guitar suited for?
The Blood Eagle is designed for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The x-jumbo frets, 24.625" scale, and Zakk Wylde 'C' neck profile demand solid technique and hand strength, making it a natural fit for experienced musicians already working in metal and hard-rock genres.
What genres and tunings does this guitar handle best?
This guitar excels in hard rock, metal, thrash metal, and drop-tuning applications. The EMG 81/85 pickup pairing and dark tonal character are optimized for aggressive playing styles; it is not designed for jazz, folk, or country.
What pickups does it come with, and can I adjust them?
The Blood Eagle ships with an EMG 81 in the bridge and EMG 85 in the neck, both active pickups known for high output and tight response. The electronics include volume, volume, tone controls, and a 3-way switch; battery compartment is a 9-volt clip-in design for easy access.
Does it come with a case?
The guitar ships setup ready, but the WA-VW-2 case is sold separately. Make sure to budget for a quality case to protect it during transport and storage.
What are the key specs that define its feel and playability?
The set-neck mahogany body, ebony fingerboard, 22 x-jumbo frets, and Zakk Wylde 'C' neck profile (0.79" at the 1st fret, 0.93" at the 12th) provide a thick, responsive grip. The 24.625" scale delivers tighter string tension ideal for drop tunings, while the 14" fretboard radius and Grover tuners ensure stability and tuning consistency.
