Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and neck-through 7-ply maple/walnut/padauk construction give this guitar long sustain and a firm low end, while the ebony fretboard and 25.5" scale keep note attack tight and defined for low tunings and fast riffing. The Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern set covers a wide range: the ceramic bridge pickup pushes aggressive, high-output rhythm and lead tones, and the alnico neck stays clear and articulate for cleans and melodic solos, with the push/pull voice switch, reactive tone shaping and phase inverter expanding the palette from the guitar itself. Best suited to modern rock and metal players who also want usable clean and mid-gain sounds without changing instruments.
Schecter C-1 SLS Hollywood in Supernova
The C-1 SLS Hollywood is built for gigging musicians and studio professionals who demand a fast, stable platform night after night. Its neck-through construction and ultra-thin "C" profile deliver the kind of comfort and response that keeps your hands fresh during long sets and recording sessions. The Supernova flip-flop finish commands attention on stage—shifting between contrasting colors as lights move across the body. This is a modern, high-output instrument engineered for players who want versatile electronic control and refined tonal shaping in a sleek, road-ready package.
Playability & Feel
The neck-through design with carbon fiber reinforcement rods locks in exceptional stability and sustain—critical for live reliability and consistent intonation through a full set. The 7-ply maple/walnut/padauk construction keeps the guitar light and responsive without sacrificing rigidity. Neck dimensions of 19mm at the 1st fret and 20mm at the 12th fret support rapid, precise playing across the fretboard, while the ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets and 12-16" compound radius handles both aggressive bending and minimal-action setups, staying playable and forgiving all the way up the neck.
Tone & Electronics
The Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern pickups (ceramic bridge, alnico neck) respond dynamically across the full frequency spectrum, delivering aggression at the bridge and clarity and articulation at the neck. The push/pull master volume for Fluence voice switching and master tone knob with Fishman reactive tone shaping and push/pull phase inverter give you extensive tonal range to shape your sound on the fly—no external gear or footswitches required.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck profile is this, and will it suit my playing style?
The C-1 SLS Hollywood features an ultra-thin C-profile neck measuring 19mm at the 1st fret and 20mm at the 12th fret, designed for fast, high-precision playing. The 12–16" compound radius and 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets support both aggressive bending and low-action setups, making it ideal for metal, rock, and progressive styles.
What do the onboard controls let me do without external pedals?
The master volume has a push/pull switch for Fluence voice switching, and the master tone knob includes Fishman reactive tone shaping plus a push/pull phase inverter. This gives you extensive tonal options and flexibility to shape aggression or clarity on the fly without needing footswitches.
How does the neck-through construction affect playability and durability?
The neck-through design with carbon fiber reinforcement rods delivers exceptional stability and sustain while keeping the overall weight minimal. This makes the guitar both responsive and road-reliable, with consistent playability whether you're gigging, recording, or touring.
What's the bridge and tuner setup like for live reliability?
The C-1 SLS Hollywood uses a Schecter Nouveau Ergo hardtail bridge and TonePros M-Series locking tuners, both designed for tuning stability and dependability in live and studio settings. The hardtail eliminates whammy bar tuning drift, while the locking tuners hold pitch consistently through long sets or recording sessions.
What pickup configuration does this guitar have?
The guitar is equipped with Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern pickups: a ceramic-voiced bridge pickup for aggression and an alnico neck pickup for clarity and articulation. The 5-way selector switch lets you blend and switch between them for dynamic frequency response across rock, metal, and contemporary styles.
