Schecter C-1 Lefty Ernie C Left-Handed Electric Guitar
The Schecter C-1 Lefty Ernie C is built for left-handed players who demand professional-grade responsiveness and sustain. Its ultra-thin C-shaped neck and thru-body mahogany construction deliver the kind of articulate resonance that cuts through on stage and locks in during recording sessions. The Ultra Access design keeps upper frets within reach without compromising the structural integrity needed for reliable gigging, while the compound radius ebony fretboard transitions smoothly between open chord voicings and high-speed single-note runs. This is a new instrument with full Schecter warranty coverage.
Playability & Feel
The Ultra Thin C neck profile—measuring .748" at the first fret and .787" at the twelfth—sits naturally in the hand for extended sets and studio work. A 3-piece maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement stands up to the rigors of touring while the 2-way truss rod lets you dial in your preferred action with precision. The compound radius fretboard (12"–16") paired with 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets handles everything from big, open voicings to aggressive legato passages across the entire neck.
Tone & Electronics
EMG 81 and EMG 89 active pickups with black chrome covers push high-output definition and clarity—essential for cutting through band mixes live. The push-pull tone control gives you tonal shape-shifting without overcomplicating your board, while the neck-thru mahogany construction contributes the warm, woody sustain that professionals rely on for both clean definition and aggressive overdriven tones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this guitar right for left-handed players only?
Yes—this is a fully mirrored left-handed instrument with complete hardware setup including a left-handed Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge and nut. All controls and fretboard access are configured for left-hand play.
What kind of music is this guitar best suited for?
The C-1 Lefty Ernie C excels in metal, hard rock, and progressive genres. Its high-output EMG pickups, tight articulation, and sustain-focused tone make it less ideal for jazz and blues applications.

The Ultra Thin C measures 0.748" at the first fret and 0.787" at the twelfth, engineered for speed and comfort during extended playing. It supports both open chord work and rapid single-note playing without sacrificing structural integrity thanks to the carbon fiber reinforcement.
What pickups does it come with and can I change them?
It ships with EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 89 (neck) active pickups, which deliver high-output clarity and warm resonance. The push-pull tone control adds tonal shaping; pickups can be swapped if needed in the future.
