Schecter Corsair 2020 Semi Hollow Electric Guitar Gloss Black B0961
Description
Schecter Corsair 2020 Semi Hollow Electric Guitar Gloss Black
The Schecter Corsair delivers a lightweight, resonant playing experience built on a maple semi-hollow body with an arched top that projects clarity and sustain on stage. Its thin 'C' neck shape and comfortable proportions settle into the hands naturally for extended sets and long nights of gigging. This B Stock example shows minor finish blemishes under the strings—cosmetic only, with full functionality intact.
Neck Feel & Playability
A 3-piece mahogany set-in neck with ebony fretboard and pearloid block inlays grounds this instrument with solid feel and responsiveness, paired with 22 medium frets and a 14" radius that sit comfortably under the fingers for chording and lead work alike. Neck dimensions measure 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, while the 24.75" scale and 1.653" nut width balance string spacing with ergonomic feel across the fretboard.
Live Tone & Reliability
A pair of Schecter Diamond '78 humbuckers with coil-split capability voice both full-bodied humbucker punch and articulate single-coil articulation via push-pull tone controls—covering everything from warm jazz to gritty blues on a single guitar. The Schecter Tremolo with roller Tune-O-Matic bridge holds tuning steady through a night's work and allows subtle pitch bends, while Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners and a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut ensure reliable tuning stability and focused sustain.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means the Corsair is fully functional with minor finish blemishes under the strings—purely cosmetic imperfections that do not affect playability, tone, or hardware performance.
Can I get both humbucker and single-coil tones from this guitar?
Yes. The Schecter Diamond '78 humbuckers include coil-split capability via push-pull tone controls, letting you switch between full-voiced humbucking punch and articulate single-coil textures without swapping pickups.
Is this guitar suitable for metal or djent?
No. The Corsair is voiced and built for jazz, blues, funk, and studio sessions; its warm, resonant character and articulate cleans are not optimized for high-gain or extended-range metal styles.
What is the neck shape and dimensions?
The Corsair features a thin 'C' profile neck measuring 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, with a 1.653" nut width and 24.75" scale length—proportions designed for comfortable extended chording and lead work.
How stable is the tuning and intonation?
Tuning stability comes from Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners, a roller Tune-O-Matic bridge, and a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut, all chosen to minimize drift and support superior sustain during long sessions or live sets.
