Description
Sound & Tone
The Stargazer-12 LH pairs a mahogany body with a 3-piece maple neck and ebony fretboard, giving its 12-string voice a warm, resonant foundation with clear note definition and long sustain across the 25.5" scale. Dual Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage pickups deliver articulate vintage character, ranging from full-bodied 12-string chime in humbucking mode to a brighter, more focused single-coil sound through the push-pull coil split. That range suits shimmering jangle-pop and classic rock rhythm parts, layered clean arpeggios, and heavier driven chords where the doubled strings add harmonic richness.
Schecter Stargazer-12 LH
The Stargazer-12 LH is a left-handed 12-string electric built for players who need access to serious sustain and harmonic complexity without compromising playability. The thin "C"-profile neck and deep insert joint design make this guitar comfortable to navigate across extended sessions, while the mahogany body delivers warm resonance with impressive projection for a 12-string instrument.
Playability & Feel
The 3-piece maple neck with thin "C" shape and ebony fretboard provide a fast, responsive playing surface. With a 25.5" scale, 22 jumbo frets, and 14" fretboard radius, this guitar balances string tension with comfortable fretting hand ergonomics. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut at 45mm width ensures clean articulation and proper string spacing for 12-string demands.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage™ pickups deliver articulate vintage character across both neck and bridge positions. Independent volume controls with a single tone control and push-pull coil split via 3-way toggle offer flexible tonal shaping—from full-bodied 12-string chime to focused single-coil brightness. The Schecter Diamond Adjustable 12 String bridge and TonePros "M Series" tuners maintain rock-solid intonation and tuning stability through full sets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this 12-string playable for long studio and live sessions?
The thin C-profile maple neck, 25.5" scale, 14" fretboard radius, and 45mm nut width are all optimized for 12-string string tension while reducing fretting-hand fatigue. The deep insert joint also provides ultra-fast access to higher frets, making extended playing comfortable.
What tonal options do the pickups and controls offer?
Dual Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage pickups paired with independent volume controls, a single tone control, and a push-pull coil-split let you dial from warm, full-bodied 12-string chime to focused single-coil brightness. The 3-way toggle selector adds further flexibility between neck, bridge, and both pickups.
How does this compare to other 12-string electrics like the Fender Coronado 12 or Rickenbacker 360/12?
The Stargazer-12 LH offers a left-handed option unavailable on many comparable models, pairs mahogany warmth with articulate SuperRock Vintage pickups, and includes modern hardware like TonePros M Series tuners and a coil-split for greater tonal range. It balances vintage character with gigging and studio reliability.
What genres and playing styles is this guitar best suited for?
Designed for rock, folk, progressive, studio sessions, and gigging where 12-string harmonic complexity and articulate vintage tone shine. It is not optimized for metal or djent styles, which typically demand higher output or different tonal characteristics.
What skill level should I have to play this guitar?
This guitar is built for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. While the thin neck aids comfort, 12-string instruments require fretting-hand strength and proper technique; beginners will benefit from starting on a 6-string before transitioning.
