Schecter Reaper-6 FR S Guitar Satin Charcoal Burst B-Stock 0031
Description
Schecter Reaper-6 FR S Guitar Satin Charcoal Burst B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock Schecter Reaper-6 FR-S delivers an exceptionally comfortable playing experience thanks to its Ultra Thin 'C' neck profile and set-neck construction with Ultra Access, making upper fret access effortless. The Satin Charcoal Burst finish provides a sophisticated aesthetic, while the guitar's well-balanced weight and responsive hardware create an instrument that feels immediately at home in extended playing sessions. Minor cosmetic fretboard edge splits are visible in the detailed images, but the instrument remains in excellent functional condition at a significant value.
Playability & Feel
The 25.5" scale and Ultra Thin 'C' neck cut hand fatigue during long sets while delivering the speed and responsiveness that modern lead work demands. The Ebony fretboard with Pearloid offset/reverse dot inlays stays articulate under heavy use and reads clearly in stage lighting. The 14" fretboard radius combined with 24 X-Jumbo frets lets you execute precise lead articulation, smooth bends, and hybrid picking without compromise across the entire range.
Tone & Electronics
The bridge-mounted Schecter Diamond Decimator pickup cuts through the mix with aggressive, articulate output ideal for high-gain rigs and heavy tones. The neck-position Sustainiac pickup with dedicated 2-way on/off and 3-way mode switching (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic) unlocks infinite sustain effects and harmonic layering for experimental textures and ambient passages. Independent controls for volume, tone, pickup selection, and Sustainiac modes let you dial in your exact sound without menu-diving.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and does it affect playability or tone?
B-Stock indicates this guitar is unplayed and fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections—in this case, small fretboard edge splits visible in detailed images. These marks are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity; you receive the full manufacturer warranty at a significant discount.
Is the ultra-thin C-neck comfortable for long playing sessions?
Yes. The Ultra Thin C-profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th fret) minimizes hand fatigue during extended play, and the set-neck construction with Ultra Access design makes upper-fret navigation effortless—ideal for metal and progressive leads.
What do the Sustainiac controls do, and how do I use them?
The Sustainiac neck pickup offers a dedicated 2-way on/off switch and a 3-way mode selector (Fundamental, Mix, Harmonic) that lets you generate infinite sustain and harmonic layering effects for both live performance and studio overdubs. Independent volume and tone controls give you full command over the effect.
Will this guitar work for styles outside metal and hard rock?
The Reaper-6 FR-S is voiced specifically for aggressive high-gain articulation and sustain effects, making it less suited to traditional jazz, folk, or worship music. It excels in metal, hard rock, and progressive genres where its tight output and harmonic capabilities shine.
What comes included, and what do I need to buy separately?
The guitar ships with the Floyd Rose 1500 bridge, nut, tuners, and all onboard electronics including the Sustainiac circuit (which uses a 9-volt battery). You will need a Floyd Rose-compatible strap, cables, and your choice of amplifier to begin playing.
