Description
- The perfect convergence of the Hellraiser series and the Blackjack SLS as a 8-string. An instrument with absolutely professional features, but – as usual with the Schecter guitars – affordable for the average player while offering an outstanding price-quality relation. Offered here for a special price!
- Finish: Transparent Black Burst, with black chrome hardware – a very noble looking instrument!
- Body: Mahogany.
- Neck: Mahogany, 3-piece. Set neck with Ultra Access neck joint – developed in the Schecter Custom Shop, this neck construction technique allows for unobstructed access to the upper frets while maintaining all the good qualities of the traditional set neck construction.
- Scale: 25.5″ – Standard.
- Fretboard: Ebony, with offset-, reverse-inlays & cross inlay at the 12th fret of gray pearl .
- Bindings: Gray pearl (body and headstock).
- Frets: 24, X-Jumbo.
- Nut: Standard.
- Headstock: Matching the body finish.
- Tuners: Schecter Locking.
- Bridge: Non-tremolo, Hipshot, strings-thru-body – for even more sustain.
- Pickups: 1x EMG 66-8H Brushed Chrome Cover (Hals) active humbucker & 1x EMG 57-8H Brushed Chrome Cover (Hals) active humbucker – this combination is very versatile, provides lots of gain for aggressive sounds, fits well for downtuning and is absolutely quiet, due to its active design.
- Alternatively, upon request of the purchaser, we can also perform a professional installation of a different pickup combination, e.g. any DiMarzio, EMG or Seymour Duncan etc. (Only a small upcharge per pickup swap will be required). Furthermore, we offer installation of active boost and EQ circuits like EMG Afterburner, PA-2, SPC, RPC, VMC, EXG etc. Please ask for details if interested.
- Electronics: 2x volume, 1x tone, 3-way switch.
- Absolutely outstanding quality of selected woods, craftsmanship, playability and sound, especially for this price range! The quality level is easily comparable with many USA and Japanese instruments which usually cost 2-3 times more than this instrument.
