Description
Schecter V-1 SLS Elite Evil Twin Electric Guitar in Satin Black
The V-1 SLS Elite Evil Twin cuts through on stage with aggressive ergonomics that never compromise playability. Its ultra-thin neck profile and lightweight construction sit comfortably in your hands seated or standing, while the satin black finish resists fingerprints and holds its professional appearance through long sets and studio sessions. Built for modern rock and metal players who demand clarity, sustain, and responsive dynamics in every note.
Playability & Construction
The 7-ply maple/walnut/padauk neck-thru design with carbon fiber reinforcement locks in exceptional stability and resonance under heavy playing, while the ultra-thin "C" profile neck in satin finish gets you around the fretboard fast and reduces hand fatigue on marathon gigs. The swamp ash body yields bright, articulate midrange response that cuts through a band mix, and ivory binding adds visual definition to the construction. A 25.5" scale and 12"/16" compound radius ebony fingerboard paired with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets make comfortable playing across the entire range feel natural, with rock-solid intonation you can count on every night.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers—ceramic magnet at the bridge and alnico at the neck—deliver articulate, punchy tones with excellent note definition and controlled sustain. The master volume and master tone controls with push/pull functionality, combined with a 3-way pickup switch, let you dial in everything from tight, focused high-gain to warm, complex voicings without menu diving, while the TonePros T3BT TOM bridge and T1Z tailpiece lock your tuning in solid and transfer energy efficiently into the body.
