Schecter Custom-S Left-Handed Electric Guitar Satin Gold Burst
Description
Schecter Synyster Custom-S Left-Handed Electric Guitar in Satin Gold Burst
This left-handed Synyster Custom-S delivers a fast, comfortable playing experience with its Ultra Thin 'C' neck profile and 25.5" scale, paired with a responsive mahogany set-neck construction that balances sustain with articulate note definition. The ebony fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and glow-in-the-dark side dot markers ensures both precision and visibility across extended playing sessions. Finished in Satin Gold Burst with distinctive gold pearloid 'SYN' and 'Deathbat' inlays, this instrument combines functional design with striking visual presence on stage.
Playability & Feel
The mahogany 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods stays true under touring conditions while maintaining the wood's natural resonance and warmth through hours of performance. The Ultra Thin 'C' profile measuring .748" at the 1st fret and .787" at the 12th fret sits naturally in your hand for both lead runs and rhythm work without fatigue, while the 16" fretboard radius and 24 X-Jumbo frets enable fluid movement and rapid position shifts across the entire neck.
Tone & Stage Performance
The Schecter USA Synyster Gates Signature Humbucker bridge pickup and Sustainiac® neck pickup cut through the mix with aggressive midrange bite paired with infinite sustain capabilities through the 2-Way On-Off Sustainiac Switch and 3-Way Sustainiac Mode Switch (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic). A Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge with Grover tuners maintains rock-solid tuning stability even with aggressive whammy work, while the metal knurled control knobs with set screws stay locked in place during the most demanding performances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck profile does this guitar have, and is it comfortable for fast playing?
The Ultra Thin 'C' neck measures 0.748" at the 1st fret and 0.787" at the 12th fret, with a 16" fretboard radius and 24 X-Jumbo frets designed to minimize hand fatigue during extended sessions while supporting fast, accurate fretting across the entire fingerboard.
What pickup configuration does this model have?
It features a Schecter USA Synyster Gates Signature Humbucker in the bridge position and a Sustainiac neck pickup with a 2-Way On-Off switch and 3-Way Mode selector (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic) for articulate midrange and infinite sustain capabilities.
Is this guitar suitable for jazz or blues?
No, this instrument is optimized for metal, hard rock, and progressive music; its aggressive tone profile and high-output electronics are not designed for the warm, nuanced character needed in jazz or blues contexts.
What bridge system does this guitar use, and how stable is it?
The Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge paired with Grover tuners and gold hardware ensures tuning stability and full expressive range, while metal knurled control knobs with set screws provide secure engagement during aggressive playing.
What makes this left-handed model different from the standard right-handed version?
This is a true left-handed instrument with the same Synyster Custom-S specifications—Ultra Thin 'C' neck, mahogany set-neck, ebony fretboard, and Sustainiac electronics—but configured for left-handed players with mirror-image body and hardware layout.
