Frequently asked questions
What exactly is wrong with the B-stock unit?
Only minor cosmetic marks on the fretboard binding—purely visual. The guitar is unplayed, and tone, intonation, fretwork, and all electronics are completely unaffected.
Are the pickups and hardware identical on both?
Yes. Both feature Schecter USA Solstice (bridge) and Equinox (neck) humbuckers, Hipshot 7-string fixed bridge, wenge neck with thin C profile, Macassar ebony fretboard, 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets, and 26.5 scale length.
Which is better for djent and progressive metal?
Both are identically voiced for djent and progressive metal—punchy, articulate tone with defined highs and solid low-end. The choice depends on whether you prioritize new condition or B-stock savings.
Is the B-stock a real bargain or a potential problem?
It is a genuine bargain if you do not mind minor cosmetic marks. Since the instrument is unplayed, all playability, electronics, and tonal qualities are factory-fresh despite the visual imperfection.
