Schecter Banshee GT FR Guitar Satin Trans Purple B-Stock 1014

The Banshee GT FR lives on stage. Its thin, fast neck profile pairs with a Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Locking Tremolo that responds instantly to your touch—dive bombs stay locked in, vibrato bends sing true, and your hands never fight the instrument. The satin trans purple finish grips naturally during hours of play without fatigue, while the set-neck construction with ultra access gets you to the highest frets seamlessly. This guitar is engineered for modern rock, metal, and progressive players who demand sustain, precision, and tonal clarity that never quits.

Playability & Ergonomics

The Ultra Thin 'U' neck measures just .748" at the first fret and .787" at the 12th fret—your hand settles in naturally, and position shifts happen without thinking. 24 X-Jumbo frets on an Ebony fretboard with a 14" radius make every note articulate fast and clean, while the Floyd Rose Special locking nut and tremolo system hold your tuning solid through aggressive vibrato, whammy bar exploits, and dive effects. The 25.5" scale maintains standard tuning with enough string tension for responsive bends and pinch harmonics that cut.

Tone & Electronics

The dual EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 60 (neck) humbucker combination punches through live mixes with articulate aggression and clarity—your rhythm tones stay defined even in dense arrangements, and your leads leap out front. Volume/Tone/3-Way Switch controls let you dial from bright, crystalline leads to thick, saturated rhythms on the fly, maintaining dynamic responsiveness that tracks your playing nuance.
