Schecter Avenger FR-S Przym Vespid in Metallic Red Przym
The Avenger FR-S Przym Vespid is built for modern metal and progressive players who need extended range, precision hardware, and tonal flexibility in a stage-ready package.

This is an instrument that performs when it matters most.
Playability & Build Quality
Built around a 3-piece mahogany neck with 2 carbon fiber rods and topped with an ebony fingerboard, this guitar combines structural stability with premium tactile feel. The 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets on a 25.5" scale give you excellent articulation and sustain for lead work, while the ultra-access heel carve ensures comfortable upper-fret access without compromising structural integrity. The neck sits naturally in your hand—responsive, fast, and built to withstand the demands of touring and studio sessions.
Tone & Electronics
The Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic pickup features voice-switching via push-pull controls, letting you access three distinct tonal characters on the fly without reaching for settings. The integrated Sustainiac system with dual mini switches adds harmonic feedback and infinite sustain for layered lead work and textural possibilities. The Floyd Rose 1500 Double Locking Tremolo locks in your tuning through aggressive whammy bar use—essential for gigging musicians—while TonePros tuners keep pitch rock-solid between sets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the dual pickup system work for both rhythm and lead playing?
The Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic humbucker offers three distinct voice selections via push-pull controls on the Volume and Tone pots, letting you dial in clarity for tight riffing or warmth for solos. The Sustainiac pickup system adds harmonic feedback and infinite sustain on demand, essential for layered lead work and textural experimentation without external foot switches.
Is the ultra-access heel carve actually functional for high-fret playing?
Yes—the carve eliminates the playability compromise typically found in extended upper ranges, allowing comfortable access to the highest frets on the 24-fret ebony fingerboard without sacrificing structural integrity. Combined with X-Jumbo stainless steel frets on a 25.5" scale, upper-register navigation is effortless for rapid metal and progressive passages.
Will the Floyd Rose tremolo stay in tune during aggressive whammy bar use?
The Floyd Rose 1500 Series locking tremolo maintains tuning stability through aggressive whammy bar use, and TonePros tuners ensure reliable pitch retention across extended playing sessions. The 3-piece mahogany neck reinforced with 2 carbon fiber rods adds exceptional stability to support consistent tuning.
