Description
Sound & Tone
Swamp ash and a neck-through maple/ebony build give this Banshee a tight, articulate voice with strong attack and long sustain, while the Schecter USA Apocalypse-VI bridge pickup delivers high-output aggression for heavy riffing and cutting leads. The Sustaniac in the neck position adds infinite singing sustain and harmonic feedback on demand, and the 25.5" scale with .010-.046 strings keeps low tunings and fast alternate-picked lines defined. It's aimed squarely at modern metal, metalcore and hard rock players who want Floyd Rose dive-bombs, stainless X-jumbo frets for slick bends, and lead tones that hang in the air indefinitely.
This Schecter Sullivan King Banshee-6 FR-S Guitar is Brand New in the box with a full Schecter's warranty!

This model is designed for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The ultra-thin U-profile neck and 24 X-Jumbo frets favor players comfortable with aggressive playing styles and extended-range technique.
What genres and tunings is this best suited for?
Built for metal, hard rock, progressive, and djent styles—especially drop tunings and lower registers. Its high-output pickups, tight low end, and articulate highs are optimized for these genres; it is not recommended for jazz, blues, or folk playing.
What pickups are in this guitar?
The bridge position houses a USA-made Schecter Apocalypse-VI pickup for high-output aggression, while the neck features a Sustaniac pickup for extended harmonic sustain and versatility across the fretboard.
Does this guitar have a floating bridge system?
Yes, it is equipped with a Floyd Rose 1500 bridge and matching nut, offering full floating-bridge tuning stability and dive/pull-up effects common in metal and progressive playing.
What is the neck shape and fretboard like?
The neck features an ultra-thin U-profile (0.748" at the 1st fret, 0.787" at the 12th) carved from 3-piece maple, paired with a 12"-16" compound-radius ebony fretboard and 24 stainless steel X-Jumbo frets for smooth, responsive play.
