Schecter Damien-6 FR Guitar Satin Black B-Stock 1524
The Damien-6 FR delivers a comfortable, fast playing experience with its thin C-profile maple neck and 25.5" scale length that feels immediately familiar to players transitioning from Fender-style instruments.

This B-stock unit offers full functionality at a reduced price point, making it an excellent value for players seeking a versatile high-output platform.
Playability & Construction
The bolt-on mahogany body features an arched top with black 1-ply binding and grips solidly in hand on a maple neck with a thin C shape that measures 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret. The rosewood fretboard sports 24 X-jumbo frets across a 25.5" scale with a 14" radius, paired with bat inlays and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.653" width) for smooth, stable playability that holds its own night after night.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter Diamond Heretic pickups in neck and bridge positions cut through a mix with high-output aggression, ideal for rock and metal stages, controlled through a volume knob, tone control with push-pull function, and a 3-way selector switch. The Schecter Custom hardtail bridge with string-thru-body design and black hardware deliver the aggressive look and rock-solid foundation, while the Floyd Rose Special Hot Rod bridge offers precise tremolo articulation and tuning stability for expressive playing and demanding setlists.
