Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with arched top lends weight and midrange thickness beneath the Schecter USA Jerry Horton humbuckers, which move from articulate cleans to dense, compressed high-gain rhythm tones, while the string-thru TonePros bridge adds sustain and attack. A push-pull coil split on the master tone thins things out for brighter, more open single-coil textures when a track calls for less saturation. With a 25.5" scale, 24 jumbo frets and a thin "C" maple neck, it favors tight, percussive modern rock and metal rhythm work and fast lead runs high on the neck.
Schecter C-1 Jerry Horton 25th Anniversary White
This Schecter C-1 Jerry Horton 25th Anniversary delivers the refined playability and aggressive character that defined Horton's signature sound. The thin "C"-profile neck and 25.5" scale make for quick, responsive fretting hand movement, while the mahogany body with arched top and striking white finish commands visual presence on stage. Built for players who demand both ergonomic comfort and professional-grade hardware that won't let them down during a gig.
Playability & Neck Design
The maple 3-piece neck with thin "C" profile sits at 20mm at the first fret, tapering to 22mm at the 12th fret, creating a fast, streamlined feel without sacrificing stability through extended sets. 24 jumbo frets on a 14" fretboard radius paired with the Graph Tech XL Black TUSQ nut at 42mm width provide smooth, consistent action across the entire fingerboard, whether you're diving into lead passages or laying down tight rhythm parts night after night.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter USA Jerry Horton humbuckers handle everything from articulate cleans to thick, compressed gain, while the push-pull coil split pot on the master tone control adds single-coil versatility when needed. The TonePros locking tune-o-matic bridge with string-thru body design and Grover Rotomatic tuners ensure rock-solid intonation and tuning stability through extended playing sessions and demanding live applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of music is this guitar designed for?
The C-1 Jerry Horton is built for hard rock, metal, and rock styles. Its aggressive, thick gain character and articulate cleans make it less suited to jazz, folk, or country.
What skill level do I need to play this guitar?
This is an intermediate to advanced/professional instrument. The fast neck and 24 jumbo frets support lead work and tight rhythm playing, so previous playing experience is recommended.
What does the coil split do?
The push-pull coil split pot on the master tone control lets you switch the dual humbuckers to single-coil voicing on the fly, adding tonal versatility without changing pickups.
Will the tuning stay stable during long sets?
Yes. The Grover Rotomatic tuners and TonePros locking tune-o-matic bridge with string-thru body design are engineered for rock-solid intonation and tuning stability through extended playing sessions.
What comes in the box?
The guitar ships with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings (.010–.046) already installed and ready to play.
