Schecter Nick Johnston Traditional Guitar Atomic Green B-Stock
The Schecter Nick Johnston Traditional sits in hand with natural balance and ergonomic comfort, thanks to its roasted maple neck with thin C-profile engineered for extended lead passages and complex voicings without hand fatigue. The contoured double-cutaway body delivers the playability of a seasoned performer's tool, while the figured maple cap and striking Atomic Green finish command attention on stage and in the studio. This B-stock model offers full professional performance at a substantial discount from new pricing.
Playability & Build Quality
The roasted maple neck with thin C-profile and ebony fretboard create a fast, responsive playing surface ideal for both quick single-note runs and intricate voicings, while 22 extra-jumbo frets and a 14" radius enable smooth legato work and precise intonation across the entire fingerboard. A 25.50" scale length combined with the 1.653" nut width yields balanced spacing that locks in comfortable hand positioning during marathon playing sessions without cramping or compromised reach.
Tone & Live Reliability
The HSS pickup configuration pairs two Nick Johnston signature single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions with a Diamond '78 humbucker in the bridge, delivering articulate highs and punchy midrange that excel across rock, metal, and alternative styles. The vintage-style tremolo bridge and Graph Tech XL Black TUSQ nut contribute clarity and sustain, while Schecter locking tuners hold tuning stable through demanding live performances and extended setlists.
