Overview

A chambered body with dual humbuckers and piezo bridge to cover any style.

The Schecter C-1 E/A is a beautiful and versatile guitar. It features a chambered mahogany body that looks amazing in its Cat's Eye finish. The set mahogany neck is joined at the heal with Schecter's ultra-access neck joint to help you reach high notes with maximum facility. This rosewood fingerboard adds resonance and sustain with 24 extra-jumbo frets at your disposal.

The Schecter C-1 sports active electronics including a piezo pickup element in the bridge. Schecter Diamond Plus humbuckers produce all the crunch and power you can use, while the piezo pickup allows you to add the sound of an acoustic guitar to the mix. The tune-o-matic bridge makes for precise adjustment of intonation and string height, while the stopbar tailpiece makes string changes easy. Case sold spearately.
