Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar Black Cherry
Description
Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar Black Cherry
The Hellraiser C-1 delivers a thin, fast neck profile with a comfortable grip from first fret to upper register—the result of a meticulously contoured mahogany 3-piece neck paired with a 14" fretboard radius and 24 X-Jumbo frets. Its set-neck construction and quilted maple top over a mahogany body provide both structural rigidity and visual sophistication in the distinctive Black Cherry finish. This instrument is engineered for players who demand precision hardware, versatile active electronics, and the ability to navigate complex passages without fatigue.
Playability & Construction
The thin "C" neck shape measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th, offering minimal lateral depth for speed-focused playing. A 25.5" scale paired with the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.653" width) and Schecter Locking tuners ensures stable intonation and reliable tuning retention, while the 2-way adjustable truss rod allows precise relief adjustment. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access cutaway design balances body resonance with access to higher frets.
Tone & Electronics
An EMG 81TW bridge pickup and EMG 89R neck pickup configuration delivers articulate high-end response and full-bodied sustain across the tonal spectrum, powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery for consistent output. The dual volume (Push-Pull) and tone controls with 3-way switch provide active voicing options from thick rhythm tones to cutting lead character, while the TonePros T3BT TOM bridge with string-thru-body design maximizes sustain and harmonic clarity.
