Description
Schecter Omen Extreme-6 FR Left-Handed Electric Guitar in Black Cherry Finish
The left-handed Omen Extreme-6 FR sits in your hands like an instrument built for the stage. Its thin 'C' neck profile and 24 X-Jumbo frets across a 25.5" scale let you move through passages without friction, while the Floyd Rose Special bridge and locking nut system lock in your tuning tight—essential for aggressive lead work and dynamic rhythm playing that demands reliability. Built in Indonesia with solid construction, this guitar pairs professional-grade hardware with a price that respects your budget.
Playability & Feel
The thin 'C' neck tapers from 0.787" at the first fret to 0.866" at the 12th fret, letting your hand travel the neck without catching or fighting the profile. Rosewood fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and a 14" radius speaks clearly under your fingers—every note articulates with definition. The 1.625" nut width pairs with the Floyd Rose Special locking system to keep you in tune across extended playing sessions and aggressive dives, regardless of how hard you push the tremolo arm.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond Plus high-output alnico humbuckers generate the thick, articulate punch needed for modern rock and metal stages. The control layout—master volume and tone with push/pull coil-splitting and a 3-way toggle—gives you the range to dial in warm, compressed lows for rhythm work or bright, cutting highs that cut through a dense mix on stage.
