Schecter E-1 FR-S Electro Resin Guitar Transparent Blue B-Stock 0499
The E-1 Electro-Resin cuts the iconic Explorer profile with a thin "C"-profile mahogany neck that sits perfectly in your hands across all 24 jumbo frets. Its flamed maple top with resin-filled fractal burns and transparent blue finish makes a visual statement on stage while delivering the sonic muscle to back it up. This B-Stock unit is priced significantly below standard retail—note that it exhibits severe finish cracks in the neck pocket area that are tactilely noticeable, though the electronics and hardware remain fully functional.
Playability & Construction
The mahogany body and 3-piece mahogany neck give this machine the resonance and sustain that cuts through a mix. The 24-fret pale moon ebony fretboard with mother-of-pearl block inlays and 12"-16" compound radius lets your fingers move freely from open strings to the dusty reaches of the neck. At 25.5" scale and 41.3mm nut width, the dimensions feel immediately familiar, while the deep insert joint with ultra access design keeps you comfortable when you need to dig into the high frets during a gig.
Electronics & Tone
The Seymour Duncan '78 bridge pickup with chrome cover unleashes classic hot-rodded rock crunch that sits perfectly in any mix, while the Sustainiac neck pickup opens up harmonic sustain and ambient textures for creative expression. Two dedicated Sustainiac mini switches paired with full volume, tone, and 3-way pickup selector controls put tonal shaping right at your fingertips, backed by a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment that powers the Sustainiac circuit through every set.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean and what imperfections does this unit have?
B-Stock means the guitar is fully functional and carries full manufacturer warranty, but exhibits cosmetic imperfections that do not affect playability or tone. This specific unit has severe finish cracks in the neck pocket area that are tactilely noticeable but purely superficial—the electronics, hardware, and structural integrity remain uncompromised.
What pickup combination does this guitar have and what tones can I get?
The E-1 pairs a Seymour Duncan '78 bridge pickup with a Sustainiac neck pickup. The '78 delivers hot-rodded rock crunch and classic bridge tone, while the Sustainiac provides harmonic sustain and ambient textures, controlled via two dedicated mini switches for extensive tonal shaping.
Is the neck comfortable for extended playing sessions?
Yes. The thin C-profile mahogany neck measures 20mm at the 1st fret and 22mm at the 12th fret, balancing comfort and fretboard access. The 12"-16" compound radius and deep insert joint with ultra access design ensure smooth playability and comfortable reach to all 24 jumbo frets.
What hardware and bridge does it use?
The E-1 features a Floyd Rose 1500 locking bridge for stable tuning and pitch control, paired with TonePros M Series tuners. The 25.5" scale length and 41.3mm nut width are industry-standard for hard rock and metal guitars.
What genres is this guitar best suited for?
The E-1 excels in hard rock, metal, progressive, and studio sessions where its hot-rodded crunch, locking bridge stability, and Sustainiac versatility shine. It is not optimized for jazz, folk, or country playing styles.
