Description

Schecter Banshee GT FR Guitar Satin Trans Purple B-Stock 0436

The ultra-thin 3-piece maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement delivers exceptional speed and comfort for extended playing sessions, while the Set-Neck construction with Ultra Access ensures solid sustain and tonal response. This Satin Trans Purple finish combines visual appeal with a practical, low-maintenance coating. Built for modern metal, hard rock, and progressive styles, the Banshee GT FR balances aggressive aesthetics with professional-grade playability and electronics.

Playability & Feel

The 3-piece maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods provides exceptional rigidity and minimal neck dive, while the 14" fretboard radius and 24 Extra Jumbo frets on ebony fretboard create an extremely fast, low-action platform for technical passages and wide bends. At just 8 lbs 6 oz, this guitar remains comfortable during extended sessions, and the Ultra-Thin U profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th) accommodates both shredders and rhythm players without fatigue.

Tone & Electronics

The HH pickup configuration pairs an EMG 60 neck pickup with an EMG 81 bridge pickup, delivering tight, articulate attack with punchy mids and focused low-end response across high-gain and clean settings. The Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Locking Tremolo with locking nut maintains tuning stability through aggressive dive bombs and subtle vibrato, while the mahogany body with flame maple top provides the resonance needed for sustained note definition.
