Frequently asked questions
What's the main playability difference between these two?
Both share the same thin 'C' neck profile, 24 Narrow X-Jumbo frets, 14" radius, and 25.5" scale. The key difference is the bridge: the standard Deluxe uses a fixed Tune-O-Matic, while the FR Deluxe adds a Floyd Rose tremolo system that requires more maintenance and setup knowledge but enables expressive pitch control.
Are the pickups the same?
Yes, both feature dual Schecter Diamond Plus humbuckers in bridge and neck positions, delivering saturated, articulate tones with excellent sustain. The tone descriptions differ slightly due to how the Floyd Rose bridge affects overall sustain and responsiveness.
What does B-stock mean for the FR Deluxe?
B-stock indicates the unit is new but may have minor cosmetic imperfections, packaging damage, or display wear. Electronics and playability are fully functional and covered by warranty; the reduced price reflects cosmetic condition only.
Which is better for metal and hard rock?
Both excel at metal and hard rock. The standard Deluxe suits players who want simplicity and tuning reliability; the FR Deluxe suits those who use tremolo for aggressive effects and pitch manipulation. Tone quality from pickups is equivalent.
