Schecter C-1 E/A Classic Guitar Satin Vintage Pelham Blue B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock C-1 E/A Classic delivers a comfortable, fast playing experience with its thin "C"-shaped neck and 25.5" scale. The Satin Vintage Pelham Blue finish is striking, and minor edge blemishes typical of B-stock inventory are easily visible in closeup photos. Built for players who demand hybrid acoustic-electric versatility without compromise, this instrument combines traditional craftsmanship with modern dual-pickup electronics.
Playability & Construction
The three-piece mahogany neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods provides stability and responsiveness underhand, while the thin "C" profile measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th for quick finger movement across the board. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access opens up the upper registers for lead work and soloing, and the ebony fretboard with 22 jumbo frets on a 14" radius delivers smooth legato and precise intonation you can rely on night after night.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter USA Pasadena pickups—Plus bridge and standard neck—blend magnetic tone with the Fishman Powerbridge piezo system for authentic acoustic character on stage. Independent volume and tone controls for both magnetic and piezo circuits, plus a 3-way output switch and 3-way pickup selector, let you sculpt your sound from fat and warm to bright and articulate, or blend both sources for hybrid density.
