Sound & Tone
The basswood body and bolt-on maple neck give the C-6 FR Deluxe a thick, punchy voice with a focused midrange, while the rosewood fretboard and 25.5" scale keep note definition tight and clear from the low strings up. Dual Schecter Diamond Plus humbuckers, switched via a 3-way selector with volume and tone, cover articulate clean passages and saturated high-gain territory, suiting modern metal, hard rock, progressive playing and darker alternative material. The 24 X-Jumbo frets, 14" radius and licensed Floyd Rose tremolo add fast lead access plus dive-bomb and vibrato-bar pitch effects for players who lean on expressive whammy work.
Schecter C-6 FR Deluxe Electric Guitar Satin Black
The C-6 FR Deluxe sits naturally in hand thanks to its thin 'C' maple neck, built for extended playing sessions where technical precision and rhythmic power demand equal attention. The satin black finish feels smooth against your body and projects a seasoned, professional stage presence. This guitar excels across modern metal, hard rock, progressive, and darker alternative styles, delivering thick, punchy tone with the clarity needed to cut through live mixes on all six strings.
Playability & Feel
Designed around a 25.5" scale with a thin 'C' neck profile and 24 Narrow X-Jumbo frets, the C-6 FR rewards speed and technical facility without compromise to sustain or tonal depth. The 14" fretboard radius and SGR by Floyd Rose nut (1.625" width) work with a 2-way adjustable truss rod to maintain precise intonation and consistent playability across the entire range. The Floyd Rose licensed bridge locks in your tuning while delivering the expressive pitch control gigging musicians depend on.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond Plus pickups articulate with responsive character and clarity across the frequency spectrum, cutting through band mixes live. The volume, tone, and 3-way switch controls dial in your preferred voice intuitively, while metal knurled knobs with set screws hold settings solid during aggressive playing sessions. The basswood body with bolt-on construction and rosewood fretboard yield a resonant, focused character that translates well on stage and in the studio.
