Frequently asked questions
Which guitar suits djent and drop-tuning styles better?
The Damien-7 Multiscale is engineered specifically for djent and extended tunings. Its multiscale design maintains balanced string tension across the 7-string range, while carbon fiber reinforcement ensures neck stability under high tension. The Omen Extreme-6 FR is designed for standard and drop-D tunings on a 6-string format.
What is the key hardware difference?
The Omen Extreme-6 FR features a Floyd Rose Special tremolo bridge for pitch manipulation and expressive effects. The Damien-7 uses a fixed Hipshot 7-string multiscale bridge, which prioritizes intonation stability and sustain over whammy-bar flexibility.
Are there playability differences for hand comfort?
Both feature thin 'C' neck profiles and 24 jumbo frets for fast lead work. The Damien-7 adds carbon fiber reinforcement rods for additional neck stiffness under high tension, and its contoured upper fret access optimizes navigation of the 7th string. The Omen Extreme-6 FR is left-handed, addressing southpaw players' needs.
How do the pickups compare for high-gain clarity?
Both guitars use Schecter Diamond high-output humbuckers (Diamond Plus on the Omen, Diamond Heretic on the Damien-7) with coil-splitting via push-pull tone control. The Damien-7's Heretic pickups are tuned for dense, distorted contexts and extended-range articulation, while the Omen's Plus pickups deliver thick lows and bright highs suited to rock and metal.
