Description
Schecter Ultra-III Electric Guitar Ivory Pearl
The Schecter Ultra-III sits beautifully balanced in your hands with a smooth, fast-playing neck that responds instantly to your technique. Its flat top with raised center and sculptured edges creates an ergonomic platform equally suited to sustained lead work and rhythmic precision. The Ivory Pearl finish signals the quality embedded throughout—from the hardware to the electronics—making this a serious instrument for players who demand both playability and tonal versatility.
Playability & Build
The three-piece mahogany neck with a comfortable 'C' shape measures .826" at the 1st fret and .905" at the 12th fret, providing consistent feel across the fretboard. Twenty-two X-Jumbo frets on a 14" radius fretboard combined with the 24.75" scale enable fast position shifts and clear articulation, while the set-neck construction and white binding deliver structural integrity and visual clarity. The Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut (1.653" width) and Grover Vintage tuners ensure tuning stability and refined aesthetics.
Tone & Electronics
Three Schecter Diamond Alnico Plus Gold Foil pickups (bridge, middle, neck) paired with a 5-way rotary pickup switch and three on-off coil-split sliders generate everything from warm, articulate cleans to thick, aggressive overdriven textures perfect for the stage. The Bigsby Flat Top B50 bridge with Roller TonePros TOM TPFR–T3BT delivers excellent sustain and tonal resonance, while the volume/tone controls and retro knobs provide intuitive access to your sound palette.

Choose this for jazz, blues, and rock work where playability and tonal versatility matter more than metal aggression.

Frequently Asked Questions
What neck shape and dimensions should I expect?
The Ultra-III features a three-piece mahogany neck in a comfortable 'C' shape, measuring 0.826" at the 1st fret and 0.905" at the 12th fret. The 24.75" scale length and 22 X-Jumbo frets on a 14" radius radius fretboard provide fast position shifts and clear articulation across the board.
How many pickup configurations can I get from the coil-split system?
Three Schecter Diamond Alnico Plus Gold Foil pickups work with a 5-way rotary switch and three on-off coil-split sliders, giving you single-coil and humbucker voicings across bridge, middle, and neck positions. This generates everything from warm, articulate cleans to thick, aggressive overdriven textures.
Is this guitar suitable for metal or djent?
No; the Ultra-III is optimized for jazz, blues, rock, and studio sessions. Its warm, articulate character and semi-hollow construction are not designed for the high-gain, percussive demands of metal or djent playing.
What bridge does it use, and how does it affect sustain?
The Bigsby Flat Top B50 bridge paired with Roller TonePros TOM hardware delivers excellent sustain and tonal resonance. Set-neck construction further enhances durability and resonance.
What is included with the guitar?
The Ultra-III ships with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings (0.010–0.046 gauge). A strap, cable, or gig bag are not included with the standard package.
