New Schecter Models Megathread

[Stuck_in_a_dream]

They went through the hassle of redesigning all their guitars to have the pickup closer to the bridge years ago

...then release this one like that lmao. I think I get what they were going for; trying to make use of the new open coil Moderns. But that came with the sacrifice of...that

As someone mentioned earlier, they could have just slanted it and used the next string pickup, e.g. use 7-string pickup for the 6-string, etc. For the 8-string, either skip it, or use the soapbar.

Whilst we know that works, I think it would have broken the general public's brains.

So, to summerize, the lastest model they've displayed are:

Future looks kinda grim

I'd play the life out of that. Sparkles are my weakness.

This is all types of rad. As a 7 it would be an instant buy

 

[Zado]

Yeah I could stand the ever tune and the fish man for that

 

[Albake21]

Love the look of it, but the fishmans and evertune are a no go for me.

That headstock still looks like a flaccid dick. Or a fender headstock with cancer.

I think the headstock shape is quite nice, only that I don't think it works in reverse form. Has a good blend of modern and traditional features IMO. I'd definitely go over that headstock over the snapper one, for example (in the non-reverse config, of course) as it just looks a little more organic.

Looking at the fillets around the body, I don't think it's trying to look too modern.

 

[nightsprinter]

I decree that headstock the "half-chub"

 

[Moongrum]

I like how anything slightly long and narrow is immediately deemed penis-like by the internet.

I think of it as a penguin ever seeing this posted by @JimF

 

[Zado]

Yeah, to please everyone nfrom now on we'll call that headstock the Penisguin.

 

[JimF]

I totally forgot I did that!

Dear god I hope this gets released
