Schecter Kenny Hickey C-1 EX S Steele Green

What we say:

At A Glance

The Schecter Kenny Hickey C-1 EX S in Steele Green is the signature model from the ex-Type O Negative and current Silvertomb axe-man. The bold green fret inlays match up with the headstock and body colour for that perfect gothic style look. It features hardware from TonePros and Graph Tech along with an excellent pickup combination that brings forth a wide selection of tones, enhanced further by the switching options. The ultra access neck heel makes upper fret lead lines easy and the Thin C neck shape makes playing a dream.

Features We Love:

26.5" Scale Length

Slightly longer than a typical 25.5" S-style guitar, this scale length supports B standard tuning which has been the tuning of choice for Kenny for many years. When used with 12 gauge strings you get the perfect amount of tension for executing all of those Type O Negative riffs, from Love You To Death through to Wolf Moon.

Seymour Duncan/Sustainiac Pickups

In the bridge position is one of the best pickups ever made; the Seymour Duncan JB. With the perfect amount of output and clarity, this has been a favourite for many guitarists for years. In the neck position is a Sustainiac which unlocks those atmospheric sounding passages where you can keep the note hanging on for as long as you want it.

Steele Green

A lovely nod to the late great Peter Steele, this colour is a fitting shade of green, the likes of which can be seen in much of the Type O Negative artwork and videos. If you want to channel your inner goth metal persona then this is the way to go.

Who Is It For?

If you want to play Type O Negative songs then this is almost a must-have but any guitarist who regularly plays in B standard would benefit from this guitar.

Highlights:

• Range of sounds available from the pickup combination
• Made for performing in B standard
• A must-have for fans of Type O Negative
