Schecter Synyster Gates Custom S w USA p/u Satin Gold Burst

What we say:

Since 1976, Schecter guitars have carved a unique and highly revered path through the world of original guitar design. No mere copyists, Schecter are known for some truly outlandish designs but are equally well known for their high quality control and rock 'n' roll attitude. For those players who are a little wearied with the usual models on offer, dive into the world of Schecter guitars and discover a treasure trove of original thinking mixed with some of the best hardware and construction available. Their designs fit every pocket, too: A-list rock stars go out on stage with these guitars and so can you.

Speaking of rock stars, this model is Synyster Gates' signature guitar, based on the Avenger shape. Synyster, lead guitarist with metalcore band Avenged Sevenfold, requires an ostentatious guitar that is chock full of features and performance specs. With its pinstriped Satin Gold Burst finish and wealth of gold hardware, this is a guitar with a lot of attitude and swagger!

This set-neck mahogany bad boy has an Ebony fretboard festooned with gold pearloid inlays and glow-in-the-dark side inlays. A good flat 16" radius is a shred-friendly surface for you to unleash your playing!

In terms of hardware, we have a hugely powerful Schecter USASynyster Gates Signature humbucker in the bridge, a sustainiac at the neck position for infinite sustain (and a harmonic setting for cool controlled feedback) and a gold Floyd Rose tremolo for massively expressive pitch dropping and note-squealing.

This combination of hardware lets you really let rip with high-octane sounds that can be warped and smashed to your satisfaction! This is not a subtle guitar by any means but if subtle ain't your thang, this Synyster Gates signature may tick a lot of boxes for you!
