The Schecter tech support guy kindly told me he gave the link to this thread to his boss

Sweet! They've gotta be pleased with the positive response, it is overwhelming. I wasn't expecting this kind of response to my NGD at all!

I saw that and was thinking "there's always one..." haha. No worries, the majority's voice is being heard!

UPDATE: I spoke to my rep @ Sweetwater yesterday when I ordered a new pedal, he said that there are two (2) SLS C-8's that will be there on the 27th. Since they take pics of their new stock now, keep an eye out if you want one.

Here is my Schecter Blackjack SLS C-7 with Skull, an awesome piece of instrument (though I want dots! )

Update Edit: Just spoke to my local Schecter/Custom Shop dealer and he says Schecter told him that the skulls are being phased out and the dots will be standard.

To me this is epic, this simply means that I have at least one if not two Schecters on my to buy list this year. They introduced a lot of awesome models in this years NAMM, Maus sig, the Platinum series, and the SLS FR-S sustainiac, and the Banshee line. Now, if LTD offers a 7-string elite M-II then my wallet is gonna be in deep trouble.

Let me mention it again, the side dots were my idea , check this post (#24) posted on 3/11/2012 and you tell me

I don't really care where they got it from, but side dots FTW

I honestly never considered getting a schecter because I usually don't like their inlays they are a bit too cheesey (the crosses on the hellraisers's are not too bad) for me but now they added dots and it is a fine instrument and now I have more options if I ever want another guitar!

Huge success,finally schecter's gaining some kudos in this forum





And still no 80s guitars,life sucks

 

[loqtrall]

Wow, that's pretty snazzy. I didn't give a shit whether or not it had a skull, but the dots are definitely an improvement.

 

[CanniballistiX]

I went on an adventure through a local abandoned house w/ a photographer friend. LOTS of new shots of the SLS C-8 as well as my Ibanez RG8 and Spector Q6 Pro. Enjoy! Let me know if you can't see them...

Here is the album link:

You look so angry at it.

You look so angry at it.

There is one in the album where I am smiling a la Marco Minneman, haha. Was my 1st shoot and wasn't really sure how to pose, lol.

 

[Deathbykidd]

Want. Schecter needs to release it in aged white now!

 

[chopeth]

Well, we made it, guys. I've received a mail from my seller in Spain. They've been contacted by Schecter US and they said they will replace skulls with dots in all new models . They have already sent some active C-7 to my local shop. Models with passives can also be ordered from my country to arrive within 3 months.

WOW I really like that and I`m a diehard Ibby man...

My Ibanez RG8's neck is only a little wider and feels quite similar to the SLS C-8. The SLS necks have really changed my opinion of Schecter builds.

we changed the brand history



Now it`s time for 80s models

 

[chopeth]

Now I don't know whether getting a passive or active SLS C-7. I haven't read too much praise for the Full Shred. I love my blackouts but I think they may be somewhat limited.

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Idunno, I've heard lots of good things about the Full Shred. If you don't like it, get something like a Duncan Distortion 7.

 

[chopeth]

^I have heard it sounds a bit thin, anyway, SLS's only comed with Blackouts or FS

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

It's supposed to blend well with mahogany.

And if you don't like it, I mean sell the Full Shred and install a different pickup.
