Schecter C-1 Standard Plus Double Cutaway Guitar in Blue Fade
The C-1 Standard Plus sits in the hand like a purpose-built stage instrument. Its Ultra Access double cutaway design and Thin "C" profile neck feel natural through long sets, while the flamed maple top on mahogany delivers warm, sustained tones that cut through a live mix. The satin finish hardware and flat top with forearm contour keep fatigue out of the equation during extended gigs. Built tough for touring musicians and players who need both responsive playability and serious tonal character night after night.
Playability & Build Quality
The 3-piece roasted maple neck with Thin "C" profile (20 mm at the 1st fret, 22 mm at the 12th) stays rock-solid under the rigors of the road, while the roasted maple fingerboard with 14" radius and 24 jumbo frets lets you fly across changes without catching. Bolt-on construction paired with a Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge and satin chrome hardware locks in tuning stability and handles the wear and tear of venue to venue—no fussy maintenance required.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Richter-6 pickups with satin chrome covers punch through with articulate, defined output across the full range, controlled by a master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector for quick sonic tweaks between songs. The 25.5" scale length and mahogany-with-maple-top construction yield excellent sustain and harmonic resonance that carries live—ideal for rock, metal, and alternative settings where clarity and power matter.
