Description
Schecter Synyster Custom-S Guitar Satin Gold Burst B-Stock 0664
The Synyster Custom-S sits in your hands with immediate comfort thanks to its ultra-thin 'C' neck profile and set-neck construction with Ultra Access, letting you navigate both extended range passages and traditional positions without compromise. Built for players who need articulate lead definition and rock-solid tuning stability across marathon rehearsals and back-to-back gigs, this signature model pairs aggressive looks with legitimate performance hardware that delivers on stage. The B-stock designation reflects cosmetic considerations only—the underlying instrument remains fully spec'd and ready for professional use.
Playability & Neck Design
The mahogany 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping while maintaining resonance, while the ultra-thin 'C' profile measures .748" at the first fret and .787" at the 12th for minimal hand fatigue during extended play. The ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16" radius provides responsive string articulation and comfortable bending across the entire neck.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter USA Synyster Gates Signature Humbucker bridge pickup delivers high-output articulation with clear definition, paired with a Sustainiac neck pickup offering harmonic sustain and tonal complexity via dedicated controls. Independent 2-way and 3-way switches govern Sustainiac engagement and mode selection (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic), providing versatile soundshaping without sacrificing signal clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock indicates the unit has minor cosmetic imperfections only—scratches, finish marks, or packaging wear that do not affect playability, tone, or structural integrity. The guitar is fully functional, comes with manufacturer warranty, and performs identically to new stock.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and progressive genres?
Yes. The Synyster Custom-S is purpose-built for metal and progressive styles, featuring high-output bridge pickup clarity, a Sustainiac for harmonic sustain effects, and a thin 'C' neck designed for fast articulate lead work. It is not optimized for jazz, traditional country, or folk applications.
What is the Sustainiac and how does it work?
The Sustainiac is a neck pickup with dedicated controls: a 2-way on-off switch and a 3-way mode switch (Fundamental, Mix, or Harmonic) that allows you to trigger harmonic sustain and tonal complexity independently from the bridge pickup, giving you versatile soundshaping without sacrificing signal clarity.
How comfortable is the neck for extended playing?
The ultra-thin 'C' profile measures 0.748 inches at the first fret and 0.787 inches at the 12th, minimizing hand fatigue during long sessions. The mahogany 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping while the ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16-inch radius ensures responsive bending and articulation across the entire neck.
Will the Floyd Rose bridge maintain tuning stability?
Yes. The Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge is paired with Grover tuners and a carbon-reinforced neck for reliable tuning stability across extended sessions and aggressive playing, making it suitable for professional and touring applications.
