Schecter Solo-II Supreme Guitar Cat's Eye Black Burst
Description
Schecter Solo-II Supreme Guitar — Cat's Eye Black Burst
The Solo-II Supreme sits comfortably in your hands with a contoured mahogany body and flamed maple top that balance weight and resonance perfectly for extended playing sessions. Its thick "C"-profile neck and 24.75" scale feel fast and responsive under the fingers, while the arched top and set-neck construction deliver the kind of sustain and tonal depth that cuts through live mix and rewards both aggressive lead work and nuanced, controlled playing.
Playability & Build
The 22 jumbo stainless steel frets paired with a 12"–16" compound radius ebony fretboard allow your hands to move smoothly across the neck with consistent action no matter where you're playing. A dual-action truss rod with carbon fiber reinforcement keeps the neck stable through touring and temperature changes, while the Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut and Graph Tech tuners lock in solid tuning and reliable intonation set after set.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Lundgren Black Heaven pickups deliver articulate, full-bodied tones with excellent note definition and natural sustain that projects on stage. The volume/volume/tone push-pull configuration with 3-way switch gives you intuitive control for blending pickups and engaging coil-splitting options on the fly, while the TonePros T3BT Tune-O-Matic bridge and T1Z tailpiece anchor the strings for stable tuning and responsive dynamics through demanding live sets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level is this guitar designed for?
The Solo-II Supreme is built for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. Its thick C-profile neck (.866" at the 1st fret, .925" at the 12th fret), 22 jumbo stainless steel frets, and compound-radius ebony fretboard (12"–16") reward fast, precise fingerwork and are most comfortable for players with established technique.
What genres is this guitar best suited for?
This guitar excels in blues, rock, hard rock, jazz, and studio sessions. The warm midrange, articulate note definition, and responsive dynamics make it equally at home with aggressive leads and controlled, nuanced playing across these styles.
How does the pickup configuration work?
The guitar features dual Lundgren Black Heaven pickups with a volume/volume/tone setup and a push-pull coil-split function on the tone control. A 3-way pickup selector lets you blend between bridge and neck pickups, or select either one individually, giving you three pickup combinations plus coil-split variations for expanded tonal range.
What hardware keeps this guitar tuned stable?
The Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut, Graph Tech Ratio tuning machines, TonePros T3BT Tune-O-Matic bridge, and T1Z tailpiece work together to ensure solid tuning stability and intonation accuracy. A dual-action truss rod with carbon fiber reinforcement maintains neck stability over time.
How does the set-neck construction affect tone and playability?
Set-neck construction bonds the neck and body together, creating a more resonant connection than bolt-on designs and contributing to the natural sustain and full-bodied tone. This design also allows smooth access to the upper frets and a balanced feel in hand, though the neck angle is fixed and not adjustable like a bolt-on.
