Schecter C-1 Silver Mountain Electric Guitar B-Stock
Description
Schecter C-1 Silver Mountain Electric Guitar B-Stock
The C-1 Silver Mountain sits in the hand with immediate confidence: a thin 'C' neck profile pairs with 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets for rapid string-to-string navigation and minimal hand fatigue during marathon sets. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access anchors the lightweight mahogany body—finished in striking Silver Mountain with exposed wood on the headstock under clear coat—for sustain and snap while keeping upper-fret access unrestricted. This B-stock unit carries minor cosmetic imperfections but maintains full specification parity with new examples.
Playability & Construction
The mahogany 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists warping under tour schedule changes and string tension demands, and the thin 'C' profile (measuring 0.787" at the first fret, 0.866" at the twelfth) reduces hand strain whether you're locked in for a three-hour gig or working intricate passages. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access locks the body and neck together for consistent resonance and definition while letting you reach the highest frets without compromise.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter USA Sonic Seducer™ pickups cut through a mix with articulate character—clean enough for rhythm precision, aggressive enough for lead dynamics. The Hipshot Ibby HM bridge holds tuning rock-solid through heavy playing and temperature swings, while Schecter locking tuners and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut eliminate the tuning-slippage headaches that derail live performances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and how does it affect this guitar?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections—in this case, exposed wood visible on the headstock beneath the clear coat. This mark is purely cosmetic and has no impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. You get a new-condition instrument at a significant discount while maintaining full manufacturer warranty coverage.
Is the C-1 Silver Mountain good for metal and hard rock?
Yes—it's purpose-built for metal, hard rock, and progressive styles. The dual Schecter USA Sonic Seducer pickups deliver tight, articulate, high-output character suited to heavy riffing and lead work, while the set-neck construction and carbon fiber reinforcement ensure stable tuning and sustained resonance under aggressive playing.
How does the thin-'C' neck feel, and will it suit my playing style?
The thin-'C' profile (0.787" at the first fret, 0.866" at the twelfth) is designed for speed and rapid position changes, making it ideal for extended soloing and fast riff work. The 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets and 14" fretboard radius support both precision bending and aggressive picking; it suits intermediate to advanced and professional players comfortable with modern, fast neck profiles.
What hardware is included, and how does it hold tuning?
The guitar features a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, Schecter locking tuners, and a Hipshot Ibby HM bridge—all premium components designed to lock in intonation without drift. This setup is built to handle the tuning demands of lower-tuned and alternate-tuning styles.
How does the set-neck construction affect tone and playability?
Set-neck construction provides solid body-to-neck contact for sustained resonance and tonal clarity, while the Ultra Access design allows unrestricted upper-fret work without sacrificing structural stability. The carbon fiber reinforcement in the 3-piece mahogany neck resists warping, keeping your instrument stable on the road and in the studio.
