Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with an arched maple top gives this C-1 a warm, resonant foundation with strong sustain, while the ebony fretboard and 25.5" scale keep note attack tight and articulate. The Schecter Diamond '78 humbuckers focus on pronounced mids and controlled highs, landing squarely in rock, metal, and fusion territory, and the 2-way coil split thins things out for cleaner, more transparent rhythm and clean tones. Twenty-four X-jumbo frets on a 14" radius support fluid lead work, and the Wilkinson tremolo covers everything from gentle vibrato to steep dive-bombs.
Schecter C-1 Exotic Spalted Maple Guitar Natural B-Stock 0313
The C-1 Exotic is built for players who demand speed and responsiveness without sacrificing sustain. Its thin "C"-shaped neck and 25.5" scale cut through hours of rehearsal, recording, and live work with comfort and precision. The arched spalted maple top catches stage light while the mahogany body delivers the solid resonance and sustain that anchors heavy riffs and sustained lead lines. This B-stock example shows excellent overall condition with a minor headstock crack—a cosmetic consideration that does not affect playability or structural integrity.
Playability & Feel
The roasted maple and purpleheart neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists humidity shifts while maintaining a sleek profile at the 1st fret (.787") and 12th fret (.866"). Twenty-four X-jumbo frets paired with a 14" fretboard radius and Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut (1.653" width) support both precise intonation and smooth bends across the entire neck. Schecter Locking tuners hold tuning stability through aggressive playing and dive-bomb tremolo work.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter Diamond '78 Special bridge pickup and Schecter Diamond '78 neck pickup deliver articulate mids and controlled high-end response suitable for rock, metal, and fusion applications. Independent volume, tone, and 2-way coil-split controls on a 3-way pickup selector provide tonal flexibility, while the Wilkinson WVS50IIK Tremolo system handles everything from subtle modulation to dramatic pitch effects.
