Description
Schecter Traditional Van Nuys Guitar Natural Ash B-Stock 2743
This unplayed B-stock Traditional Van Nuys delivers a comfortable, fast-playing experience with its thin 'C' neck profile and roasted maple construction. The gloss natural ash body with flat top contour presents a classic aesthetic while the 25.5" scale and 22 jumbo frets provide excellent reach and articulation across the fretboard. Minor cosmetic imperfections—a hairline crack at the first fret and light scratches on the fretboard edge—make this an exceptional value on a well-appointed instrument.
Playability & Feel
The roasted maple neck and fretboard deliver superior stability and a refined playing surface that responds well under the demands of live performance, while the thin 'C' shape with .787" thickness at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret sits naturally in hand for extended sets. Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, Schecter locking tuners, and a 2-way adjustable truss rod ensure the tuning stability and easy maintenance gigging musicians depend on, while the 14" fretboard radius supports smooth bending and comfortable chord work night after night.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage bridge pickup cuts through on stage with vintage-voiced clarity, while the Schecter USA MonsterTone neck and middle pickups deliver versatile mid-range character and sustain that holds up in the mix. A diamond vintage tremolo bridge with volume/tone push-pull control and 5-way pickup selector gives you expressive range from articulate lead tones to warm, singing chords across all positions—reliable performance whether you're tracking or performing live.

What pickup configuration does it have, and can I swap them?
It features a Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage bridge pickup and paired MonsterTone neck and middle pickups, wired to a 5-way selector with volume/tone push-pull controls. The bolt-on construction makes the guitar accessible for modifications if needed down the road.
How does the neck feel, and what is the nut width?
The thin 'C' profile measures 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, offering a comfortable, fast-playing experience ideal for bending and chord work. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut is 1.653" wide, and roasted maple construction provides superior stability and a refined playing surface.
