New Schecter Models Megathread

[Lewis_Matthews]

True, but for over $800, I would rather have them already in there.

easy counter, its not hard to use a finish they are using on an active version, on the passive version!

Which they may do further on in the year....

If im not wrong, you can try this:

Contact the people who wants a purple and are 100% sure that they will buy it.

Then contact drummcityguitarland and with money in hand say "there's 1x guys who wants a purple banshee 7 passive".

see if they can contact schecter to make the special run, and that should work.

Zado, since you seem to be in close contact with Michael, you should do that.

Hey hey, when I get around to having the cash to get one, and know I am about to get one, I may try something like this, never hurts to ask.

As I probably won't be able to get one, until around the mid of the year at the earliest.

 

[Zado]

It was an exaggeration, however, if we don't complain, or speak up, how can Schecter listen to us, to make said changes?

I'll ask MC as soon as he writes me,I guess he's a bit busy atm considering NAMM is approaching....


What about a good wishlist?I start:

-Solo-II Custom (figred blue top like the c-1 custom would be rad,better if flamed. Or the black w/gold hd and full thickness )

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

More C-7 and C-1FR colors, as well as a C-1 Stealth EX with a 28'' neck. Ibanez is bringing their Iron Label baritone, so they need to bring some competition.

Also, I'm really digging that the Stealth series is made in South Korea, especially with the specs.

Sweet, yeah with "NAMM" I am sure they are busy.

Well you know my wishlist item,
passive Banshee 7 string, purple finish, hipshot.

Maybe some Maple fingerboards for the C-1 series as well?

maple for banshee as well

And why not H-S-S banshee models?

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

And why not H-S-S banshee models?

Throw on a pickguard... Sunset/Banshee hybrid.

 

[Lach Rae Dawn]

I would love to see some H-S-S options with a nice Blue-green burst, light maple fingerboard. (not just the Banshee, but more options like that period)

Tempest 7. I'm really not too fussy about the particulars.

 

[Forkface]

you guys are unpleasable.

 

[Lach Rae Dawn]

you guys are unpleasable.

Not really, I mainly just want the purple finish they have on the active 7 string banshee. To be available on the passive 7 string Banshee. (hipshot)

Far from unreasonable, or "unpleasable."

 

[BigPhi84]

Better than being unpleasurable I always say! LOL.

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

It's like the polar opposite of the Ibanez thread.

Wasn't that the one that they didn't like the way the headstock looked with 7?

 

[celticelk]

Yes. And as I've said before, I think it's a bullshit reason.

 

[Lach Rae Dawn]

The 3 on top, 4 on bottom didn't look that bad to me. I also thought I read someone on this thread mentioning they could do 3 on each side, and special one on the middle/back.

That would be interesting to see.

I will almost always prefer 4/3 rather than 3/4 on an asymmetrical headstock, because I think it assists in quickly identifying the string you're tuning (for most 7-string tunings, 4/3 puts wound strings on top and plain strings on bottom), but I agree that there are a lot of asymmetrical headstock configurations that look just fine. Schecter has a whole bunch of them to choose from; I'd rather not make the perfect be the enemy of the good in this case.

That is a good point about the identifying the string your tuning.

Oh man. That natural Banshee 8 look out of this world!! If only it were a 6
