Also,I've never tried a GJ2 by Grover Jackson,but if a US made guitar can be sold for 1500€ here,it means that there's really something wrong with schecter pricing,somewhere in the chain.

In germany its the same distributor as music man, Musik Meyer they seem to be greedy bast*rds asking prices 1/3 higher than the actual dollar price but in euro...
I just wonder if they are not interested in actually selling some more guitars schecter and ebmm should really be looking for a new distributor for germany if they wanna sell some more...
Btw Schecter km-7 on the way to me from the US.
:fawk: Musik Meyer

From Schecter's FB page regarding the Banshee Elite:
this is a Prototype of a BANSHEE ELITE model. A version of this model will be standard in 2015, though final specs are not solidified as of yet!

EDIT: Here is a screenshot

Aww yeeees.

I'd imagine it'll be in the same bracket as the Hellraiser Elite. Maybe slightly more expensive?

Not gonna lie, in the past I didn't think much of Schecter. Ugly inlays, too much abalone, etc. However, these days the selection is MUCH more appealing!

I know what you mean, I used to be strictly an Ibanez guy a couple years back & hated anything Schecter, but the stuff they're putting out this year is bad for my health, & wallet :lol:

Ooh, natural back! My biggest fantasy for the banshee line is still putting the inline Sunset headstock on them. If they did that, I wouldn't want another super strat.

If Schecter had a nice as hell inline stock [more angular/ 'metal'/less phallic] and they put it on the C1's....I'd literally never buy a guitar from any other company tbh.

I had the chance to play a Hellraiser Extreme C-1 today, compared it to a ibby premium 721RW and a new Washburn Parallaxe hardtail neck thru with emgs, as they were all around the same retail price ($800-900)

The C-1 absolutely destroyed the others.



That is all.

Yep,the Extreme is seriously a great piece of gear,I was astonished when I played one.Super low action,scary playability and great sustain.EMGs sound particularly good there too
