Description

Sound & Tone

The mahogany body and set-neck construction with a 24.75" scale give this Ultra a warm, thick midrange and long sustain, tightened up by an ebony fretboard and the TonePros TOM bridge and tailpiece for clear note definition. The Schecter USA Sunset Strip bridge pickup brings cutting bite for rock and hard rock rhythm and lead work, while the Pasadena neck pickup rounds things out with warmer, rolling tones for blues phrasing and cleaner passages; the push-pull tone control and 3-way switch widen the range further with dual volume controls for on-the-fly blending. With X-Jumbo frets and a flat 14" radius, it favors players who bend and move quickly across the neck without losing the woody body resonance underneath.

Schecter Ultra Electric Guitar Pelham Blue

The Schecter Ultra sits naturally in your hands with its thin 'C' neck profile and 24.75" scale length, giving you the kind of balanced feel that works equally well for rapid passages and controlled lead work. The Pelham Blue finish paired with white binding and black hardware presents sharp visual presence on stage, while the set-neck construction with Ultra Access gets you to those upper frets without neck dive or body loss—essential for gigging musicians who need reliable upper-register access. Built on professional-grade components and manufacturing standards, this instrument delivers the consistency you need night after night.

Playability & Feel

The three-piece mahogany neck features carbon fiber reinforcement rods for rock-solid stability and a thin 'C' shape that measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret—these dimensions let your hand move freely without sacrificing grip during extended sets. A 14" fretboard radius with 22 X-Jumbo frets and pearloid offset/reverse dot inlays on the ebony fretboard gives you fast, accurate fretting with visual markers you can read from across a venue, while the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut at 1.653" width ensures every string rings with clarity and sustain.

Tone & Electronics

The dual-pickup setup pairs the Schecter USA Sunset Strip™ bridge pickup with the Schecter USA Pasadena™ neck pickup, giving you the tonal range to cover everything from cutting rhythm tones to warm, singing leads—all managed through a straightforward Volume/Volume/Tone (Push-Pull)/3-Way Switch layout that keeps you focused on playing. The Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners lock in your pitch reliably between songs, and the TonePros T3BT TOM bridge with T1Z tailpiece anchor your strings with the kind of sustain that projects through any venue.

Frequently Asked Questions

What neck profile and dimensions does this guitar have?

The Ultra features a thin 'C' neck profile measuring 0.787 inches at the first fret and 0.866 inches at the 12th fret, paired with a 14-inch fretboard radius and 22 X-Jumbo frets. This combination is designed for both speed and comfort across extended playing and leads to precision intonation.

What pickups are in the Schecter Ultra and can they be controlled?

The guitar uses Schecter USA Sunset Strip (bridge) and Pasadena (neck) pickups controlled via a Volume/Volume/Tone (Push-Pull)/3-Way Switch setup. The push-pull tone control gives you quick tonal shaping options without removing the guitar from your hands.

Is this guitar suitable for metal or djent styles?

No—the Schecter Ultra is optimized for rock, hard rock, blues, and progressive styles. Its balanced, warm-articulate tone profile and dual-pickup setup are not engineered for metal or djent applications.

What hardware and materials stabilize tuning and sustain?

The guitar uses a TonePros T3BT TOM bridge, T1Z tailpiece, and Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners for solid string anchoring and tuning stability. The three-piece mahogany neck includes carbon fiber reinforcement rods to resist neck relief changes over time.

What is included with the guitar?

The Schecter Ultra ships with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky (.010–.046) strings installed and ready to play. It is manufactured in South Korea and built to professional playability standards.
