Schecter CET Koa Natural Gloss USA Custom Shop Electric Guitar
The Schecter CET sits in the hand with authority—its Schecter C Shape neck profiled at 0.80" at the 1st fret and 0.83" at the 12th fret strikes the balance between speed runs and fretting-hand control across any style you throw at it. The stunning Koa top finish in natural gloss over swamp ash catches stage lights with rare visual depth, while the contoured 4-bolt neck joint locks in solid resonance and sustain that carries through every note. This USA Custom Shop semi-custom configuration marries premium materials with hardware choices designed for gigging reliability and long-term performance.
Construction & Hardware
Built with quartersawn hard rock maple neck wood and a Macassar ebony fingerboard featuring 1/4" pearl dot inlays, stability and visual craftsmanship are built into the foundation. The GraphTech Black Tusq nut at 1.65" width anchors tuning stability under stage conditions and sustain that resonates, while the Floyd Rose Pro Custom bridge gives you precise intonation control and expressive vibrato range when you need it.
Tone & Electronics
