Whether it's a premium-grade signature series guitar, or their most budget-friendly offering, you know that you're investing in a high-quality instrument that will more than serve its purpose.
With the Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder 7 III you get a stunning 7-string guitar that certainly lives up to its name. Featuring a beautifully carved quilted maple top sitting on a mahogany back piece, a super-fast "Slim C" maple neck profile, Floyd Rose bridge (with locking nut), a set of EMG Retro Active pickups (HSS configuration), and a gorgeous Aurora Burst finish, this guitar is a veritable force of nature.
EMG Retro Active Pickups
Fully-loaded with an EMG Retro Active Humbucker in the Bridge position, and two Single Coils set in the Neck and Middle positions, the Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder III gains all the benefits usually associated with active pickups, but with the feel and dynamic response of vintage-style passive pickups.
This balance between Single and Dual Coil pickups offers you a huge range of tones to choose from, varying your sound between classic rock, blues, and even heavy metal, but thanks to the built-in FET preamp with low-impedance output, you get the sound absent any unwanted 60-cycle hum.
Crafting Expertise
In using a tonewood combination of solid mahogany for the back piece, with a carved quilted maple top, the Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder III offers a naturally well-balanced tone, with a wide variety of sonic possibilities, making it ideal for the modern-day player.
Coupled with a maple neck and ebony fingerboard, expertly crafted to offer a supremely comfortable playing experience even when played at the fastest of speeds, this makes for a rock and metal guitarist's ideal instrument.
Floyd Rose Trem
As a finishing touch, Schecter have included a high-quality Floyd Rose 1500 series tremolo bridge into the mix. This superb bridge and nut combination allows you to further modify your guitar's sound with slight shimmers through to full-on divebombs without negatively affecting your guitar's tuning stability.
