Schecter V-1 Przym Palladium guitar in Gloss Black
Description
Schecter V-1 Przym Palladium Gloss Black
The V-1 Przym Palladium is built for players who need speed, precision, and tonal range in a gigging workhorse. Its thin "C" neck profile and deep-access body cutaway eliminate friction during fast passages and solos, while the etched aluminum top over mahogany delivers visual presence and balanced resonance that cuts through a live mix without sounding brittle or thin.
Playability & Feel
The 24.75″ scale with 22 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets and 12″–16″ compound radius fretboard create a fast, stable platform across the entire neck. The thin "C" neck profile (measuring 20mm at the 1st fret and 22mm at the 12th) sits comfortably in the hand for extended sets, and the deep insert joint with ultra access gives you seamless reach to the highest registers without hand fatigue.
Tone & Electronics
The dual-pickup setup combines a Fishman Fluence Modern ceramic bridge pickup with a Fishman Fluence Modern alnico-magnet neck pickup, each offering three distinct voices via push/pull controls—essential flexibility for covering multiple tones in a single set. The Tonepros tune-o-matic locking bridge with stop tailpiece holds tuning tight under performance conditions, while the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut preserves clarity across the frequency range and locks strings in place reliably night after night.
