Description
Schecter Omen Extreme-6 Guitar Blood Burst B-Stock 0940
The Omen Extreme-6 cuts through with a comfortable, fast playing experience thanks to its thin "C"-profile maple neck and 24 X-Jumbo frets. The quilted maple top over mahogany body strikes a balance between lightweight playability and tonal depth, while the striking blood burst finish commands visual presence on stage. This B-Stock unit represents a practical choice for players seeking a versatile solidbody without cosmetic perfection.
Playability & Construction
The 25.5" scale and thin "C" neck profile (measuring 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th) provide immediate accessibility across the fretboard for fluid position shifting. The 14" fretboard radius combined with 24 X-Jumbo frets and rosewood fingerboard enable both smooth lead work and clean chord voicings without hand fatigue. Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.653" width) and 2-way adjustable truss rod ensure stable setup and long-term playability through heavy gigging.
Tone & Performance
Twin Schecter Diamond Plus pickups in both neck and bridge positions generate articulate, responsive tones suitable for rock and modern styles with clarity that cuts through a live mix. The Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-thru body construction provides solid sustain and tuning stability under bending and aggressive playing, while black nickel hardware complements the aggressive aesthetic. The mahogany and quilted maple combination delivers warm midrange character with balanced presence across the frequency spectrum—ideal for both rhythm work and solos.
