Schecter C-1 Exotic




The Schecter C-1 Exotic which debuted in Anaheim California at the NAMM 2005 Winter Session, is the latest guitar addition to their Diamond Series. The C1 Exotic is based on the popular Schecter CS-1 Custom Shop model. The C-1 Exotic features an arched mahogany body with a thick solid Flamed Maple top and will be available in two hand applied oil finishes; Antique Black Stain and Natural. The C-1 Exotic is definitely a sleek and elegant looking guitar that is sure to turn heads.



The 25 1/2" scale 3-piece mahogany neck is set into the body using Schecter's trademarked “Ultra Access” contoured heel, which allows unobstructed upper fret playability. The fingerboard is made of ebony and has 24 jumbo frets.

The new Exotic guitar features dual Schecter Superock II humbuckers pickups. Based on the Schecter’s famed custom shop humbuckers, the Super Rock II’s are wound to the Schecter's California Custom Shop pickups specs. They feature Alnico-V magnets and 1/4" pole pieces giving a unique combination of warmth, clarity and sonic diversity; which is further enhanced by the instrument’s Push/Pull TONE control which ‘taps’ the Super Rock II humbuckers to emulate single coil pickup without the hum.

Suggested retail price for the Schecter C-1 electric guitar is $1179.00
