Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and set mahogany neck give this lefty a warm, sustaining core, while the arched zebrawood top and ebony fretboard add snap and clarity to note attack, and the 25.5" scale keeps the low end tight and the highs articulate. The Schecter USA Pasadena neck and Pasadena Plus bridge pickups cover warm rhythm textures through bright, cutting lead tones, with a push-pull tone control and 3-way switching for further voicing. A Fishman Powerbridge piezo system, selectable as magnetic, blended, or piezo-only, brings acoustic-style resonance into the mix, making it well suited to players moving between electric and acoustic parts in a single set.
Schecter C-1 E/A Classic Lefty Guitar Faded Vintage Sunburst
This left-handed C-1 E/A Classic delivers responsive playability and hybrid acoustic-electric versatility in a refined mahogany instrument built for the stage. The thin "C" neck profile and 25.5" scale feel natural under the fingers during extended sets, while the Faded Vintage Sunburst finish develops character with use. Engineered to give you magnetic pickup punch and piezo-driven acoustic resonance without compromise—one guitar for multiple gigs.
Playability & Feel
The thin "C" neck shape measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.866" at the 12th, shaped for speed and comfort across marathon sessions. A 3-piece mahogany neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists deflection while preserving tonal warmth, paired with a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.653" width) and Schecter locking tuners that lock pitch instantly between songs. The ebony fretboard with 14" radius and 22 jumbo frets across the 25.5" scale rewards clean technique and supports everything from fast lead runs to chord stabs with precision and minimal string friction.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter USA Pasadena pickups (Plus bridge model, standard neck) give you articulate magnetic tones shaped independently via dedicated magnetic volume and tone controls—dial in your rhythm and lead voices separately. The Fishman Powerbridge piezo system with TonePros T1Z tailpiece layers authentic acoustic resonance into your signal, selectable through a 3-way output switch (Magnetic/Both/Piezo) that lets you blend or isolate either source on the fly. A push-pull magnetic tone control and 3-way magnetic pickup switch expand your sonic palette from warm rhythm textures to bright lead articulation—essential flexibility for gigging musicians.

The ebony fretboard features a 14-inch radius with 22 jumbo frets across the 25.5-inch scale for precise intonation and comfortable fretting pressure. Chrome hardware, metal knurled knobs with set screws, and a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment support the piezo system, while a 2-way adjustable truss rod allows neck relief adjustment.
