Schecter Rob Scallon C-1 Guitar in Satin Dark Roast

The Rob Scallon C-1 sits naturally in the hands thanks to its C-shaped neck and carefully calibrated thickness that transitions smoothly from the 1st fret (.846") to the 12th fret (.866"). The neck-thru construction with Ultra Access makes upper-fret work effortless while delivering the tonal sustain and structural rigidity that touring musicians rely on, and the lightweight design won't wear you down through a full set or studio session. This right-handed instrument is engineered for players who refuse to compromise on playability, reliability, or feel.

Playability & Feel

Speed and clarity come from 24 jumbo frets mounted on an ebony fretboard with a 14" radius, paired with pearloid reverse dot inlays for confident position navigation. The 3-piece mahogany neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods stands up to the rigors of the road, resisting twisting and warping even through temperature and humidity swings. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.643" width) locks in tuning stability and delivers consistent string spacing across the neck. A 2-way adjustable truss rod puts control in your hands, allowing field adjustments as your playing or setup evolves.

Tone & Stage Reliability

The Schecter Diamond '78 pickups—with the bridge model voiced to Rob Scallon's exact specifications—grip with articulate midrange and controlled output across the 25.5" scale, cutting through live mixes and recording sessions alike. A volume control paired with a push-pull tone knob and 3-way switch gives you real tonal flexibility without menu diving, while the Hipshot Hardtail bridge with string-thru-body construction maximizes sustain and lets the wood speak. Hipshot Grip-Lock tuners and satin black hardware deliver the gig-ready dependability and cohesive look every working player expects.
