Overview

Built for speed, tone, and flawless playability.

The Schecter C-1 SLS Custom electric guitar is designed for guitarists who demand both speed and versatility. Featuring a lightweight swamp ash body, this guitar offers a resonant and balanced tone with a smooth top-end response. The ultra-thin neck profile, made from a 7-ply combination of maple, walnut, and padauk, ensures that the C-1 SLS Custom delivers effortless playability across the entire fretboard. Whether you're playing technical solos or powerful chords, this guitar is built for precision and comfort.

With an Ultra-Thin Neck for Speed and Control

The C-1 SLS Custom is built with an ultra-thin C-shaped neck, allowing players to perform complex riffs and solos with ease. The 25.5" scale length offers a familiar feel while enhancing note clarity and articulation. The neck's construction includes carbon fiber reinforcement for added stability, ensuring that the guitar can handle demanding performances while retaining its smooth, fast feel. The ebony fingerboard adds to the guitar’s playability, providing a slick, responsive surface.

Lightweight Swamp Ash Body for Balanced Tone

Designed with a swamp ash body, the C-1 SLS Custom combines brightness and warmth for a well-rounded tonal foundation. Swamp ash is known for its tonal clarity, making it an excellent choice for players who require a rich yet articulate sound. The lightweight body ensures comfort during long performances, and the flamed maple veneer adds an elegant visual appeal, making this guitar as stunning as it is functional.

Fishman Fluence Modern Pickups for Unmatched Versatility

Equipped with Fishman Fluence Modern pickups, the C-1 SLS Custom provides a vast tonal range, including high-output, vintage PAF-inspired, and single-coil-like tones. The push-pull coil-split function allows players to switch between different voicings, ensuring flexibility for any playing style. Whether you’re looking for clean, glassy tones or heavy, aggressive sounds, these pickups deliver outstanding clarity and responsiveness.
