Sound & Tone
Swamp ash with a quilted maple top and an ebony fretboard lend this A-6 a bright, tightly focused voice with quick attack, while the 25.5" scale and set-neck construction keep low notes firm and sustained. The Schecter USA NS-1 bridge humbucker handles high-gain rhythm and lead work with clarity, and the Sustainiac neck pickup adds infinite sustain with Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic modes for feedback-like swells and singing overtones. Paired with a Floyd Rose 1500 bridge, it leans toward modern metal, progressive rock, and ambient or experimental lead playing where dive bombs and sustained textures matter.
Schecter Nikki Stringfield A-6 FR-S Guitar Maiden Mist B-Stock
The Nikki Stringfield A-6 FR-S is built for players who demand speed and precision on stage. Its ultra-thin neck profile and lightweight swamp ash construction deliver an exceptionally fast, responsive playing experience without sacrificing stability. This signature model combines innovative hardware, premium tonewoods, and distinctive visual identity for progressive and experimental playing styles, all at significant savings in B-stock condition.
Playability & Construction
The ultra-thin "C" neck shape with measurements of .748" at the 1st fret and .787" at the 12th fret keeps hand fatigue minimal during extended sets. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access paired with a 25.5" scale and 24 X-Jumbo frets delivers both the stability professionals expect and seamless upper-fret access for lead work. A Maple/Purpleheart 5-pc neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods resists the warping that can plague instruments on the road, while the ebony fretboard with 12"-16" compound radius feels comfortable across the entire fingerboard from open strings to the highest registers.
Electronics & Hardware
The Schecter USA NS-1 bridge pickup paired with a Sustainiac neck pickup gives you real tonal range with dedicated 2-way and 3-way Sustainiac mode switches (Fundamental-Mix-Harmonic) for infinite sustain and textural exploration that cuts through a live mix. Hardware includes a Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge and nut, Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners, and a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment—all the professional-grade tuning stability and wireless sustain capability gigging musicians depend on night after night.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock indicates the guitar is fully functional with no compromises to specifications or electronics—it carries significant savings due to minor cosmetic imperfections only. The playability, tone, and hardware are identical to new condition.
Is the ultra-thin neck suitable for lead work in progressive metal?
Yes. The 0.748" neck at the 1st fret and carbon-fiber reinforcement provide both speed and structural integrity, while the 24 X-Jumbo frets and 12"-16" compound radius support fast, articulate lead lines across the entire range without hand fatigue.
How does the Sustainiac system work, and what can it do?
The Sustainiac neck pickup uses three dedicated mode switches—Fundamental (sustains the pitch), Mix (blends sustain with the original signal), and Harmonic (sustains overtones)—allowing you to layer infinite sustain and textural exploration independently of the bridge pickup. A 9-volt battery powers the system.
Will this guitar stay in tune during heavy touring?
Yes. The Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge and matching nut (1.625" width), combined with the maple-purpleheart 5-piece neck and carbon-fiber rods, deliver professional-grade tuning stability. Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners provide precision locking.
What genres is this guitar voiced for?
This instrument excels in progressive, metal, and experimental styles. It is not recommended for blues, traditional jazz, or folk—the high-output pickups and Sustainiac system are voiced for modern, articulate tones in technically demanding music.
