If you play left-handed and you've spent any time searching for a serious extended-range guitar, you already know how this goes: the model you want exists in right-handed. The finish you want exists in right-handed. The B-Stock deal you found? Right-handed. Left-handed players in the 6- and 7-string space are used to making compromises — settling for whatever happens to be in stock rather than what they'd actually spec out if the full catalog were available.

The Schecter Banshee Mach-6 Evertune LH in Fallout Burst doesn't ask you to compromise much. It's a full-spec, neck-through instrument with an Evertune bridge and Lundgren M6 pickups — the same configuration right-handed players pay full price for. Right now, our B-Stock unit is $1,719.20, which is $429.80 off the $2,149.00 MAP price. Here's what that guitar actually is, and whether the savings make sense for you.

What the Banshee Mach-6 Evertune Actually Is

This is worth spelling out clearly, because "Evertune" gets thrown around a lot and people sometimes assume it's a boutique add-on to an otherwise mid-tier guitar. It isn't — the Evertune bridge fundamentally changes how the instrument behaves, and Schecter built the rest of the Mach-6 to match that ambition.

The Evertune Bridge

The Evertune F Model bridge is a floating internal spring system that maintains constant string tension regardless of temperature shifts, humidity changes, or how aggressively you pick. Once it's set, each string stays in tune — not close to in tune, in tune — through a full set, a flight, a summer outdoor gig, or a cold van. There's no whammy bar and no dive-bombing, but there's also no retuning between songs. For players who gig regularly or record without the luxury of endless punch-ins to fix pitch drift, that trade-off is very much worth it.

Pickups: Lundgren M6

Lundgren M6 pickups — bridge and neck — are Swedish-made, handwound humbuckers built specifically for extended-range guitars. They're not a brand name Schecter licensed for marketing purposes; they're what players at this level actually seek out. High-gain clarity in the low strings, articulate response in the upper register, and enough output to push a preamp without getting muddy. The push-pull tone control adds coil-splitting, so you're not locked into full humbucker output if the track or the venue calls for something cleaner.

Construction and Feel

The neck-through construction — roasted maple and purpleheart with carbon fiber reinforcement rods — runs the full length of the body rather than bolting on at a joint. That contributes to the sustain profile and upper-fret access, and on a guitar with an Evertune bridge (which is already maximizing sustain mechanically), the combination is audible. The Ultra Access heel cut means the 24th fret isn't just technically reachable — it's comfortable.

• Body: Swamp ash with flamed maple top, radius contour
• Neck: Roasted maple/purpleheart multi-ply, carbon fiber reinforced, neck-thru
• Scale: 25.5" (648mm)
• Neck shape: Ultra Thin U — .748" (19mm) at the 1st fret, .787" (20mm) at the 12th
• Nut width: 1.653" (42mm), Ernie Ball Compensated Nut
• Fretboard: Ebony, 12"-16" compound radius
• Frets: 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel
• Tuners: Schecter locking, black chrome
• Side dots: Luminlay glow-in-the-dark
• Finish: Fallout Burst (FOB)
• Origin: South Korea

The compound fretboard radius — 12" at the nut end, 16" toward the body — means chord shapes in the lower positions feel comfortable and rounded, while lead playing and bends up high don't fight you with a curved surface. Stainless steel frets last significantly longer than nickel and stay slick under your fingers without wearing flat over time. These are details that matter on a guitar you're planning to play for a decade.

The Left-Handed Reality Check

We're not going to overstate the rarity angle just to move a unit. But the honest market situation for left-handed players at this spec level is real: manufacturers produce left-handed runs in smaller quantities, dealers stock fewer of them, and B-Stock units in LH configurations come up even less frequently than new ones. If you've been watching for a left-handed neck-through, Evertune-equipped, Lundgren-loaded guitar at a meaningful discount, your window for finding one is genuinely narrower than it is for a right-handed player in the same position.

That's not hype. It's just supply and demand, and it's worth factoring into your decision honestly.

What "B-Stock" Means on This Guitar

B-Stock guitars at this price point usually have a cosmetic issue — a shipping scuff, a small mark on the back of the headstock, a finish blemish near the strap button — that disqualifies them from going out as new. The instrument itself is typically unplayed or minimally handled. We've listed the specific blemish in the product photos; look at those before buying and make sure you're comfortable with where it is and how visible it'll be while you're playing.

If the blemish is on the back of the body or somewhere you won't see during a gig, this is essentially the same guitar as the new one for $430 less. The Evertune bridge, the Lundgrens, the stainless frets — none of that changes based on a cosmetic note in the listing.

Who Should Buy This — and Who Shouldn't

This guitar is built for players who need tuning stability as a hard requirement — live performers in variable environments, players who don't want to spend the first two songs of a set fighting pitch drift, or anyone recording in a space where temperature fluctuates. If your playing context rewards that, the Evertune configuration here is one of the best implementations of it at any price.

It's also worth being straight about the trade-off: the Evertune bridge requires a specific setup process and doesn't behave like a fixed bridge or a Floyd Rose. String changes take longer. You can't do traditional vibrato. If you've never played an Evertune guitar, spend five minutes reading through the setup basics before you commit — not because it's difficult, but because it's different, and "different" shouldn't be a surprise on a $1,700 purchase.

If you're buying this as a collector's piece and mint condition matters to you, pay the full MAP price for a new one. B-Stock is for players, not display cases.

Our Take

At $1,719.20, this is a neck-through guitar with Swedish handwound pickups, stainless frets, an ebony fretboard, and an Evertune bridge — in a left-handed configuration that doesn't show up at a discount very often. The $430 savings represent real money, and on a B-Stock unit where the only difference from new is a cosmetic note in the listing, that's close to the best version of a B-Stock deal you'll find at this level.

If you gig regularly, play in variable environments, and you've been waiting for left-handed extended-range gear that doesn't ask you to settle, check the listing photos for the specific blemish, confirm you're comfortable with it, and buy this guitar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Evertune bridge affect how this guitar sounds compared to a fixed bridge?

The Evertune F Model maintains constant string tension through an internal spring system, which actually enhances sustain compared to a standard fixed bridge — the strings stay at consistent tension rather than drifting. The sonic trade-off is that you lose traditional vibrato, since the bridge is designed to resist pitch change by design. Players who primarily use a picking hand for dynamics rather than vibrato bar technique typically find the Evertune a straight upgrade. If bar vibrato is central to your playing, that's a real consideration before buying.

What does B-Stock mean for this specific guitar, and does it affect the warranty?

B-Stock designations are typically assigned due to cosmetic imperfections — scuffs, small finish blemishes, or packaging damage — that prevent a guitar from shipping as new. The instrument is otherwise fully functional and often unplayed. Check our listing photos for the specific blemish noted on this unit. Schecter's warranty coverage on B-Stock should be confirmed at purchase; we're happy to walk you through that before you buy.

Is the 25.5" scale on the Banshee Mach-6 comfortable for a 6-string extended-range setup?

A 25.5" (648mm) scale is a standard guitar scale length — familiar if you've played a Stratocaster or most production guitars. On a 6-string, it keeps string tension manageable and chord voicings comfortable, while the neck-thru construction and stainless X-Jumbo frets make upper-register playing feel fast and even. Players coming from a 24.75" scale may notice slightly more tension, but it's not a dramatic shift. If you're moving from a baritone or a 26.5" scale guitar, this will feel more relaxed.

How hard is it to find a left-handed guitar at this spec level, and is that actually relevant to the buying decision?

Left-handed runs at this configuration — neck-through, Evertune-equipped, Lundgren-loaded — are produced in smaller quantities and stocked by fewer dealers than their right-handed equivalents. B-Stock units in left-handed configurations are rarer still. That's not a sales pitch; it's the honest supply picture. If the specs match what you'd have ordered anyway, the scarcity is relevant context for how long you might wait for another one to appear at a discount if you pass on this one.
