So, there have been a few threads about this guitar, and people have even mentioned having gotten them to sound nice with a proper setup, but they're old af, and my questions are much more to the point of that setup work. I have an Omen-8 that I'll probably hang to for a while. For the price...
So about two years ago (I have been playing guitar for 4 years) I bought a Schecter Omen 8 just for the sake of having an eight string. I used it a little bit but for the most part it has just been sitting its case. Recently I have really been getting into Animals as Leaders and Periphery so I...
It's my first 8 string. I got a great deal for that so I decided to take it. Quality is really OK. It sound good but I think in near future I'll install EMG808 in it. Love the bridge. Nice hardware + very thin neck. Great playability. Best choice for a 8 string. Overall I'm very...
Just got this Schecter Omen 8 in the mail as a surprise from my wife since she knew I wanted to get an 8 string and I have been playing it nonstop since it got here at noon. It's awesome.
So i finally got my bridge pickup swapped out of my Schecter omen 8 string!! I bought a BKP Painkiller to replace the stock Schecter pickup. I also had to get a custom pickup ring made for it from my local luthier ($30). I absolutely love this pickup! the difference is night and day between...
Hey everyone, I just bought a new Omen 8 about two months ago, and recently i've been having trouble with bridge pickup. For some odd reason, the bridge is not responding. When i flip the switch to the neck pickup, it sounds perfectly fine. But when i go to switch to the bridge, it sounds like...
Hey everyone, I was thinking about buying the Lace Aluma Deathbar for my Schecter Omen 8. But I was wondering something, is the wiring route the same for EMGs? If so, I don't know the difference between my wiring for my Schecter Omen 8 and an EMG wiring route. I'm confused because my pickups...
Hey you guys, i just bought the new Schecter Omen 8, and the pickups are freakin' terrible. Soo, this leaves me in a desperate struggle for new pickups. I've been debating on either Bareknuckle pickups(which are TOO expensive) or the Cepheus Alpha 8 Pickup for the bridge. I've heard good reviews...
I soon am going to be getting an 8 string and i occasionally want to go drop E, but i'm going to be in Drop F# for most of my playing. What string gauges should i get? I'm getting this Schecter, which i believe is a 26.5 scale. Schecter DIAMOND SERIES OMEN-8 Vintage White 2012 Model 8-String...
So i went to Guitar Center the other the day and saw they had some schecter 8 strings there, I played the Hellraiser, and I LOVED IT, I hated the price though... I was looking into the Omen 8 since it's only about 400 bucks. Has anyone ever tried it, do you like it? Would you recommend it as my...
