Description
Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder FR Lefty Guitar Black Limba
Built for left-handed players who demand speed and responsiveness, this shredder features a thin, fast neck profile in a lightweight package that won't fatigue during long sets or studio marathons. The Black Limba body with flat top contour pairs with a wenge neck featuring carbon fiber reinforcement to deliver a responsive feel with excellent sustain and minimal dead spots. New in box with full Schecter warranty, this guitar arrives strung with Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky strings and ready to play.
Playability & Feel
The thin "C" neck profile measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret, enabling comfortable fretting hand access across the entire fingerboard for rapid runs and complex chord work. A 25.5" scale with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and a 12"–16" compound fretboard radius accommodates both open chord shapes and aggressive bending without fret buzz. Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners and a Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo system hold tuning stable through demanding live performance and studio abuse, while delivering the expressive control needed for dive bombs and vibrato work.
Tone & Electronics
The pairing of Schecter USA Sunset Strip bridge pickup and Schecter USA Pasadena neck pickup cuts through on stage with articulate highs and punchy mids that sit perfectly in modern rock and metal contexts. Independent volume and tone controls plus a 5-way pickup selector let you dial in the exact voice needed for each song without overcomplicating your rig.
