Schecter C-1 Standard Plus Double Cutaway Guitar in Purple Burst
The Schecter C-1 Standard Plus sits naturally in your hands with its slim Thin "C" profile neck and Ultra Access double cutaway body designed for reach across the fretboard. The Purple Burst finish highlights the figured maple top while the instrument delivers excellent sustain and clarity across its range—ready for the stage, the studio, or the practice room. Built for players who demand both comfort during long sets and rock-solid performance night after night.
Playability & Construction
The 3-piece roasted maple neck with precisely measured dimensions—20 mm at the 1st fret and 22 mm at the 12th fret—feels fast and responsive underhand without sacrificing structural stability. 24 jumbo frets on a 14" radius roasted maple fingerboard with black dot and side dot inlays make quick position shifts effortless, while the 2-way adjustable truss rod and 42 mm graphite nut lock in intonation and keep your tuning rock-solid from first song through the finale. The mahogany body with flamed maple top and bolt-on construction produces bright articulation paired with warm, singing sustain.
Tone & Electronics
A pair of Schecter Richter-6 pickups with satin chrome covers cut through both as crisp lead voices and full-bodied rhythm tones without the mud. The straightforward control layout—master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector—keeps your hands exactly where they need to be during a performance, while the Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge with satin chrome hardware holds your tuning tight and transfers every bit of resonance directly to the body.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck profile does this guitar have, and is it comfortable for long playing sessions?
The C-1 Standard Plus features a Thin C-profile neck measuring 20 mm at the 1st fret and 22 mm at the 12th fret—a slim, fast profile designed for extended play without hand fatigue. The 3-piece roasted maple construction provides stability and consistent feel throughout long rehearsals and gigs.
What genres and styles is this guitar best suited for?
This guitar excels in rock, metal, hard rock, and progressive music. The bright articulation and warm sustain from the mahogany-and-maple construction, combined with the Richter-6 pickups and hard-tail bridge, make it less ideal for jazz and traditional country styles.
What pickups does it have, and can I get both lead and rhythm tones?
The C-1 Standard Plus comes equipped with a pair of Schecter Richter-6 pickups in satin chrome covers, accessible via a 3-way selector switch. The neck pickup delivers full-bodied rhythm tones, the bridge pickup provides articulate lead work, and the middle position blends both for versatility.
How does the bridge affect tuning stability and sustain?
The Schecter Diamond hardtail bridge eliminates vibrato-arm effects and floating hardware, ensuring direct resonance transfer to the body and rock-solid tuning stability during aggressive play or extended sets. The 42 mm graphite nut and 2-way adjustable truss rod further lock in consistent intonation.
What is the scale length and fingerboard radius?
The C-1 Standard Plus has a 25.5-inch scale length and a 14-inch radius roasted maple fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets. The roasted maple fingerboard and black dot inlays support smooth position shifts and fast riffing.
