Schecter USA Custom Shop Guitars

These are the guitars Schecter builds in Sun Valley, California, for players who want something special on stage. The Custom Shop lineup includes the CET and California Custom Elite with koa tops, the Traditional Wembley HSS, the Sunset Extreme and Sunset Custom-II, Masterwork models, and the California Classic. LV Guitars stocks a rotating selection of them.

Pick the model that fits your hands and your gig. The Sunset Extreme comes in 6- and 7-string versions, which suits players who want extended range. The Sunset Custom-II HSS offers stabilized and exotic tops in finishes like Tiger Eye Satin and Ocean Blue Burst. The Wembley HSS is the more traditional option, and the CET puts a koa top under a natural gloss finish.

With prices spanning about $2,500 to just over $5,000, the range gives gigging guitarists and collectors a clear way up from production instruments. Look for a top and finish you want to be seen playing, then check the grid below for what is on the shelf now.
