Description
Sound & Tone
Two high-output ceramic humbuckers push a tight, aggressive voice with plenty of upper-midrange bite, while the mahogany body and quilted maple top keep low notes weighted and the attack defined under heavy gain. The 25.5" scale and ebony fingerboard add snap and clarity to fast runs and palm-muted riffing, and the Floyd Rose Special with locking nut holds pitch through dive bombs and hard vibrato work. Push/pull coil splitting thins things out for cleaner arpeggios and rhythm parts, but the core character is built for metal and modern rock lead and rhythm playing.
Schecter Synyster Standard Plus Guitar in Transparent Deep Red
The Schecter Synyster Standard Plus sits naturally in your hands with its Ultra Thin C neck profile and forearm contour—designed to let you move fast without fatigue during long sets. This signature Avenged Sevenfold model pairs mahogany body construction with a quilted maple top in striking Transparent Deep Red, creating an instrument with serious stage presence and the cut needed for high-gain work. Built to handle metal and modern rock demands with reliability night after night.
Build & Playability
The bolt-on three-piece mahogany neck with carbon fiber rod reinforcement stays stable and resonant under touring conditions. The Ultra Thin C profile—19mm at the first fret, 20mm at the 12th—lets you shift positions without thinking, while the 25.5" scale and ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets handle technical passages and standard tunings alike. The 16-inch radius balances speed with control, so you can lock in chords or nail intricate leads without compromise.
Tone & Electronics
Two high-output ceramic humbuckers with eight magnets deliver the articulate aggression that cuts through a dense mix—made for pushing into overdrive and distortion without losing definition. Push/pull coil splitting on the master tone control opens up tonal range when you need it. The Floyd Rose Special tremolo with Hot Rod Locking system and Floyd Rose locking nut keep you in tune through aggressive dives and releases, backed by Grover tuners and black hardware that won't let you down on stage or in the studio.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this guitar suitable for beginners?
No—the Synyster Standard Plus is designed for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The Ultra Thin C neck, 24 jumbo frets, Floyd Rose tremolo, and high-output pickups are engineered for technical metal and progressive play; beginners are better served by simpler, more forgiving designs.
What genres is this guitar best for?
Metal, hard rock, djent, and progressive are the primary applications. The high-output ceramic humbuckers and push/pull coil split deliver aggressive, gain-focused tones optimized for distortion-heavy work; it is not recommended for jazz, blues, or folk.
How does the coil split work?
The push/pull coil split is located on the master tone control and transforms the high-output humbuckers from thick dual-coil aggression to single-coil snap, expanding your tonal range across modern rock and metal applications within a single song or session.
Will the Floyd Rose tremolo stay in tune during heavy use?
Yes—the Floyd Rose Special tremolo is paired with the Hot Rod Locking system and Floyd Rose locking nut, plus a carbon fiber-reinforced three-piece mahogany neck that resists neck dive, keeping intonation stable during divebombs, extended bends, and aggressive playing.
What is included with this guitar?
The instrument ships fully assembled with Grover tuners, black hardware throughout, and an ebony fingerboard with 24 jumbo frets and Gothic Cross position markers. No amplifier or additional cables are included.
