Sound & Tone
The semi-hollow maple body and set mahogany neck give the Corsair a warm, woody voice with natural resonance and sustain, while the 24.75" scale keeps notes rounded and easy to bend. Dual Schecter Diamond '78 pickups stay focused and articulate rather than muddy, and the two-volume, two-tone layout with push-pull switching and a three-way selector lets you move from bright and cutting rhythm sounds to darker, softer lead tones. It sits comfortably in blues leads, classic rock crunch, and modern alternative textures, with the ebony fretboard and 14" radius adding clarity to both single-note lines and chord work.
Schecter Corsair Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar Gold Top
The Schecter Corsair sits beautifully in your hands with a comfortable thin "C" neck profile and responsive ebony fretboard that locks in fast for lead lines while staying composed through chord work. The semi-hollow maple construction produces warm, articulate tone with natural sustain and woody resonance that cuts through any mix—your bandmates will hear you clearly whether you're digging into bluesy leads, classic rock crunch, or modern alternative textures.
Playability & Feel
The three-piece mahogany neck with thin "C" profile measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th, creating a fast, comfortable playing experience. Set-neck construction and a 24.75" scale length provide solid sustain and resonance, while the 14" radius ebony fretboard with 22 medium frets and block inlays supports both smooth bends and clean rhythm work.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond '78 pickups deliver focused, articulate output with the warmth characteristic of semi-hollow construction.
