- Schecter's "V1 Evil Twin" becomes a serious contender for an all around great guitar. Here's what they got right, and what they got wrong. Get it at this affiliate link: www.thomannmusic.com/schecter...
Disclosure: Schecter sent me this guitar but has no control over the video, nor do they get to see it before it's released.

I don't understand how people can hate Schecter when they put out sick guitars like this!
Right? I got the Demon 7 and Solo 2 custom and absolutely love them both
Seriously! I have a Schecter Damien 6 and I absolutely love playing that guitar
@@christophersmiddy2927 So i live in a tiny studio in an apartment building so all i got for an amp is this tiny Marshall practice one since I cant really go to loud and i tell you i did a double take when i heard those active pickups for the first time on the Demon. The sound is so unbelievably clear and its so resonant i have trouble putting it down without any hum even while muting it lol
I got the Omen 6 Schecter before SRG new name and it was one of the best guitars I had
@@justinparmelee4679 hell yeah man. Schecter make really good guitars, I absolutely love them and the sounds i get from the pickups are awesome and sound great when I plug it in my small practice amp, which a Blackstar amp. It's perfect for my tiny apartment and it sounds killer! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Schecter has been my absolute favorite for 20 years +. Great guitars. This review was great, I'll have to check that one out!
@@wojciechszeler8865 The Omen 6 feels like a well-marketed C-6 classic. I have both and I'm not sure that there's a substantial difference. I bought the C-6 Elite around Christmas a few years ago (pre-covid) for only $250 new. I picked an Omen up today on trade (for an amp) and my immediate thought was how similar it was. The Omen seem to go for 400+ used, perhaps keep an eye open for a C-6 and see how you feel?
Honestly you are a testament to the fact that anyone can learn guitar. You've gone from pretty amateurish to a riff monster in a few years through nothing but hard work and practice. Really keeps me motivated to practice myself. Cheers dude!
That’s a riff master lol
I remember working for a guitar store a few years back and our manager at the time was awesome and beloved by everyone in his store as well as the clients. I remember that he had an eye on a Schecter guitar and we all chipped in a bit to buy him his dream guitar. I have never seen the guy more pleased.
As a V player, the placement of the output jack is my favorite feature.
I wish every V would have the output jack there. I think only Jackson and Schecter get it right.
Seriously. The Glenn Fricker Album must happen.
Happy new year chief, and Happy new year to everyone here.
it's just the word "FUCK!"
No, there is plenty of medeoker guitar albums already.. he is guitar 101
'The Glenn Fricker Experience' 😆
@@mouthfulacoque3580 so like the Song "Fuckingham Palace"? But downtuned and a lot more chunky?
czcams.com/video/BrUuKehpGuQ/video.html
Happy New Year to you, too!
I'm not a fan of the flying-V style, but I absolutely love the quality of schecter and have been singing their praises for years now. They just keep continuing to impress, every time I hear or put my hands on one. Awesome video Glenn!
i have heard guitarists rip on schecter because apparently it looks like what some 15 yar old metal head would buy. Yeah because what I liked in a guitar from when I was 13 to 15 has changed a lot. My only criticism of schecters is no floyd rose but it would be great as a rythem guitar.
Not a fan of this shape either but you can find similar or same setups in different body styles. There is one SLS Evil Twin in Gibson style shape with a sustainiac and it's currently in my wish list. One day I may pull the trigger 😉
We sell guitars far more expensive and “exotic” but what Schecter is doing is second to none. Phenomenal line.
One thing you guys should definitely try and do is single pickup options with top of the line hardware, and that lowers the price like crazy! Even the making price. Checked your shit out and that shit is beautiful- This is just a suggestion, but keep it up!
I just bought this last year and have been enjoying every moment of playing it 🤘🏻🔥 Disclaimer: when ordering you don't get a case etc, atleast not at Thomann so don't get disappointed about that
I was suspect about it coming with a case, too; my C-7 Apocalypse with a similar finish (the grey stain thing, laminated neck, etc) did NOT come with a case at $1500. Meanwhile my ESP Ltd SC-607 came with a case for $1250 >_>
@Suk Yu Mi Bowls Especially something like a Les Paul with a fairly delicate construction. Bolt on necks with very little headstock angle and nothing too pointy(like a V), ship well regardless. Even the mid priced Epiphones come with a hardcase. Shipping a 1k+ guitar without a case is dumb.
@Suk Yu Mi Bowls why? That's on you. There's another good reason not to buy Gibsons low end stuff. Right now Sweetwater has a few Les Paul Prophecys listed at $699 and I'd bet if you pressed them to include some kind of hardcase, they'd at least split the cost. That's still around $500 less than you probably paid.
@Suk Yu Mi Bowls Epiphone Les Paul Prophecys I meant to say. I personally won't buy a 24 fret LP. But for the price it's decent.
I didn't get a case with mine. bought last year.
Schecter is so underrated. I owned a schecter explorer (sounded and played great), and recently got to play an all black tele which I might need to go back and buy.
Owned three Schecters in my lifetime. I've heard them being called a "poor man's PRS," but I absolutely stand by their reliability and playability. I may pick up another one in the future - they really are fantastic in build and quality.
“Poor man’s PRS” is a pretty damn good compliment lol, but yeah I’ve felt every guitar from Deans to Gibsons and Jackson’s and schecter seemed to have that totally different build quality
The clean tone demonstration was off the wall. Great job!
I got a Schector Diamond Elite 5 string Bass in a red finish because of your guitar. It has exceeded every expectation I had in a 5 string. The only problem is the Porshe paranoia of scratching that beautiful finish !!!!!!!
I been playing shecters most of my music career, I bought my first one as a backup guitar on the cheap and it became my go to since I now own 3 schecter guitars and 2 basses. My omen extreme has become my workhorse always ready to go always in tune. And sounds great
I had similar experience. I did a tour and went with the Ibanez I had at the time and a buddy of mine gave me a Schecter Studio 5 as a back up for the road. One night, my lower strap button pulled out and I had to give to the one of the other bands on the tour’s tech to repair it. I pulled out the Schecter and never went back to the Ibby. I asked to buy the Schecter off my friend and he said yes. He had recently been sponsored by Warwick and was in buying binge of different Warwicks because he got them for so cheap. I still love and own Ibanez basses, but I always come back to the Schecter. She’s instrument I feel most connected with. My buddy still offers to buy or trade it back to this very day nearly 20 years later.
I love that you do the "drop test". Tooooo many reviews never show it. Thanks Fricker 🤘
rotfl that clean tone chord at the end was so worth sticking around for, thank you for the lol & the great review of this sleek monster!!!
Yeah I’ve liked schecter for a while now (probably about 2020 ish when I started playing guitar) and I’ve always heard good things. After watching this video, it is inevitable that I’m going to add a schecter to my collection, cheers Glenn
I have a 2008 C-1 Hellraiser exactly the same (no tremolo) and they are probably the single best bang for the buck guitar you can get. The EMG's are flawless. The push pulls give you every option under the sun. With or without the tremolo, it blows my mind how good that guitar is. It's chunky. She's got some weight to her. Personally I like the extra chunk. It stays in tune very well. It looks spectacular no matter what color you go with. I cannot say enough good things about them.
I like your energy! This is the only channel I have subscribed to after only watching 1 video! Your energy is up beat and positive!
I've been playing for 33 years. Out of all the guitars I've ever owned or played, my Schecter is by far my favorite to play! Awesome review, keep the great videos coming!
I think that the finish on the back would look awesome on the front too. The fret markers look sick. Sounds great too
I've LOVED Schecter since the mid 90's so I am glad they have done so well for you and your studio, damn Glenn I LOVE YOU
Schecter and ESP makes a lot of their stuff in the SAME factories (Japan & Korea). Far better than a lot of the Gibson, import and american.
@@malcolmbliss777 Its a shame that they have tons of hate too. Believe it or not though, most of the hate is really just because of the image of those two companies. I was talking to this one Fender fanboy who said he hated Schecter cus it was too "edgy" and hated ESP because all their fans were teenage boys in metalcore or emo bands. Its a shame really because these companies are the best when it comes to less common body shapes (like the superstrat which is practically all Ibanez sells for example).
@@wingsoficarus1139 ESP is all I own. Oh, I have a few cheap imports I like (love my single cut gold top Vox with the P90/humbucker p/u switch: $220 used). But Fender is goofy. Lamps bolt together. Not guitars. And Gibson? I’m old enough to remember when u could get a 59 Gold Top out of the trading times for $300, back in 1980, when everyone wanted a Kramer. Check out a band called Pianosaurus, from the 80’s. They used instruments from Toy R Us, and every nite they’d smash their gear. Hilarious. And incredible musicians. Do u know what Strat Hendrix played? They only made one. The fact remains, its in the heart. Not in the instrument u play.
@@malcolmbliss777better at what? Endorsing you tubers?
@elmerdane There are players and there are talkers. My band toured 15,000 miles last spring.
How many miles did your band put on the odometer?
I wish glenn a happy new year and guitar classes!
You played that riff like a boss. Sounds freaking great. I want one now!!!
Always loved Schecter. My Demon 6 FR is turning 10 this year and its still beautiful (with a few dings here and there) and sounds wicked with the Duncan Designed pickups.
Wow, your lead playing isn’t comical anymore, that’s the best compliment I can give you Glenn lol. You must have put a lot of hard work and practise in congrats. I’d love to get a Schecter 7 string, been looking at those lately.
Glenn thanks again for not blowing me out of the water with a 20 second screem I drive a semi truck for a living and I have to play through the stereo very loud and it would just blast me so thanks again for that because I enjoy your channel more than I like anybody else's guitar content you have come a long way in your guitar playing which is awesome never played a schecter before but that guitar looks and sounds amazing love the channel keep up the good work
Man, love the finish on the back of that guitar. Very sweet!
Awesome, I have the Explorer version of this guitar and even though it doesn't come with the case, the Fit & Finish is as flawless as yours was. It's one that I will definitely keep for a long time.
Schecters fucking rule , I've had the Synyster Gates custom S , Omen Extreme , Demon , C1 Deluxe , and the Damien. Their guitars are by far the best bang for the buck , better quality and more affordable than a crappy Gibson IMO!
I'm looking at one of those but I'm scared to pull the trigger because I tried schecter's four different times and all four different models the low e was buzzing so bad it was just completely unplayable.
@@beefnacos6258 Wow I'm surprised , I've had 5 different ones and currently own 2 and haven't run into a problem. I'm talking from $350-$1500 guitars , they always seem to be great quality with no issues and I keep the action as low as possible.🤔
@@beefnacos6258 try finding one in a store and playing if you don’t want to test your luck
Same here! It has to be my favorite guitar of the ones I've bought. I had a bit of excess fret glue though, how was yours?
Friggin Gibson, and the fact that you couldn't return or exchange the Mustaine V is unacceptable. I'll never buy a Gibson.
same i love dave mustaine but nothing is more disappointing than gear being backed by someone famous and then ending up being shit and not getting reimbursement.
This happened to Glenn, imagine what happens to every day folk.
Gibson corp is a joke and no one should be spending their money with them.
Authentic bad products made by an authentically bad company.
He could have returned/exchanged it. He just didn’t.
But why? If something has serious defects isn't the manufacturer obliged to return it or exchange it?
Exactly total bullshit , for what they cost that's a shitty policy!
I've had a Shecter Omen-5 since I was a kid and it has followed me on my musical journey. I've never had any issues with it, even with the hell that it's gone through. Also, sick playing! It's so cool watching you come up as a guitar player.
Glenn!!!!! I can tell you're still practicing your playing. Keep it up dude! The work is paying off!!!
I own a schecter V-1 Apocalypse and I absolutely love everything about it. Nice hot passive pickups and it’s really versatile with the coil splits. Also the damn thing looks super bad ass
Schecter, in my opinion, builds the absolute best guitars for the $$. Great video.
they are up there, I would say probably all in one for the low end 'expensive', then schecter if you want what they make and kiesel if you want something custom.
Guitar Center Alumni, Canton, MI. I appreciate you mentioning the "Chaos" before Christmas. This was the time during which I realized I was a better musician than a sales-person. SNAKES EVERYWHERE! Continued success brother.
Have a Happy New Year and successful 2023. I recently bought a Schecter E-1 FR S Special Edition and it's quickly become one of my favorite guitars. It's a great guitar and any guitar that makes you want to pick it up and play is an awesome guitar and the quality and features on the Schecter guitars is second to none.
I use to have a diamond series and a couple hell raisers that were pretty freakin sick. I have a 7 string PRS now that’s my daily player with Tremonti sig pickups in it. Schecter is in my opinion an inexpensive PRS the higher end schecters are on the same playing field. Thanx glen for sharing! That ax is bad ass..
DAMN!!! NOW THAT'S A GREAT GUITAR! It looks like you're playing through hot butter. This guitar would be the last guitar I would buy and be well worth the investment. Great work, Schecter!
Happy New Year Glenn; Sick Guitar !!! I wanted to say I've enjoyed watching your journey through the year; your playing has sharpened up, and it's inspiring to see that hard work (which I'm sure and obviously you must be putting in behind the scenes) pays off. Love the reviews, Love the experiments, Love the pisstake and loving your progression. 🍻here's to 2023 and you hitting your 500k subscribers 🤘😎
Was actually considering this guitar, thanks for reviewing it
Schecter always wins my heart... I've known many guitar players complaining about shitty guitars from whatever brand over the years, but who never had any bad thing to say about Schecter. They always do such a splendid work
The only thing technically "bad" about schecter for most people is they are not their style of guitar which is reasonable but besides that I've never heard of them being bad playing or sounding
@@danielnutt9and even that’s sort of a cliche because they make the PT in multiple flavors as well as several other “vintage style” models.
@@danielnutt9 the fuck? That's not even true. They make just about every type of guitar you can think of. You just have to know where to look
I found this guitar used for 500$ on fb marketplace. It was sold super cheap because unknowingly to the owner the fishmans were wired incorrectly. A simple trip to the tech and its in brand new working condition and one of my favorite guitars that I own now. Definitely a bang for the buck 🤘
Sounds like standard Schecter Quality Control, because there is none. My Schecter Diamond is supposed to have a lifetime warranty.. it died in a year and Schecter refuses to do anything about it
I love the fact that you have been practicing brother man! Fantastic!
Thank you for showing us how to lift the lid to the guitar case. Alot of guys dont understand how important that part is.. its was awesome down right amazing
To be honest I haven't watched SMG for a while but damn..... your playing has improved since the last time. Kudos.
True
Love Schecter, well made instruments, pretty solid QC. You’re welcome to try using my Donegan Ultra if you want. I’m not far from the studio so I can drop it off, no need to ship.
Really? Where are you located?
@@SpectreSoundStudios Amherstburg. Also have a 25 year old Soldano hot Rod 50 with 2x12 cab if you want to mess with it sometime
Thought you were going into the Danzig “Godless” riff when you were playing at 8:08 or so. Thanks for the great videos, Glenn…”pull it out” and “strap on” in the same video, LOL…
Your soloing in this video is the most satisfying kind I've heard man. You've been practicing pretty hard.
Just bought the Apocalypse model. It is incredible - it has the same finish on the rear side as the Evil Twin. LOVE Schecter! Thanks, Glenn!!
I just got a C-7 Apocalypse FR S \m/(>.
Yeah, an Apocalypse is on my wish list! REALLY want to get one!
I dug out my Apocalypse Avenger the other day, and it was still in tune after collecting dust for more than a month. In terms of usability, it's my favourite guitar.
This is one guitar I will not be messing around with.
I’ve played their basses for years, super well put together
I’ve had my Schecter 5 string for almost 20 years and I’ve had to adjust the neck twice and it’s always in tune. Rock solid basses. I’ve had other basses with sexier names on the headstock, but I always come back to the Schecter. It’s also my go to for recording. It always records well.
@@raybirdman I concur. I have my Schecter Stiletto Elite 5-string (with EMG soapbar pickups) for about 8 years. Excellent sustain. Always stays in tune. No complaints. Solid build quality.
2023 is the year i pick up my very first new humbucker-equipped guitar. it's a Schecter. thank you for this review, Glen, and enjoy your new guitar! I have the very real feeling i'm going to love love love my new guitar when it arrives. Congrats to the folks at Schecter California; this example is a total home run.
Schecter guitars are amazing. I got a second hand hellraiser off your recommendation and, my god, that thing is made so beautifully, absolutely love that guitar. Wouldn't change a thing about it
DUDE! I was deciding between that and the Schecter Apocalypse a couple months ago. I ended up going with the Apocalypse because of how beautiful the body was. Nonetheless, out of the 5 electrics that I have, 3 of them are schecters (Apocalypse, hellraiser DLX, and C1 Platinum) because I am in love with the quality and affordability of the quality. Hell, after my very first guitar (Squier by fender) I got a Schecter omen active as my first better guitar years ago. Can't say enough good about them!!
I was expecting the schecter to just go through that Mustaine V but Great video and great guitar Glenn!! Certainly way better the competition!! Might get a 7 string from schecter now
I picked up a schecter c7 pro and since then its been my go to for the last 2 years, cost me round $1200AUD and for the price its great, hope this helped
@@mattywrecks8727 I hope they make a 27" one cause that's what I'm aiming for otherwise there is an ibanez with that spec too. I want to go down to dadgad in G#, the way tesseract/monuments tune
I have a Banshee Elite 7 and it's excellent. The only thing I've had to do is change the pickup selector after it broke
@@lightiskalkin Banshee elite7...27" scale. I have one. Its great.
Long time fan here, and novice tech. I've honestly loved seeing you put all these brands to the test so we know where to put our money.
Thanks for the video Glenn. In the last 2-3 years, it always comes up that I should buy an Evil Twin series Schecter, because practically everyone says only good things about them. The Telecaster shape is my favorite from this series.
I had an Schecter Omen 6 ten years ago, it was seriously one of the best guitars ive ever played!
I really wish they hadn't stopped making the Platinum V-1. It was going to be my next guitar until all of a sudden they were all gone.
Me and my Dad went to test an amp in a guitar shop and were handed a schecter hellraiser to test the amp with, we forgot all about the amp and were just blown away by how good that guitar was, we couldn’t afford it at the time but I have since got myself a hell raiser V with a FR and that thing puts the biggest smile on my face. I also got a Wylde audio V too because it seems anything in or around the orbit of schecter is just killer. Glad to see this is no exception!
I have to agree. I absolutely love my Schecter. It is a 2001 custom gold top "Tempest". I upgraded the pickups, and added coil splitters. I call it my "Battle Axe". It does everything I could ask for, and has for many years. A+!
I have the EXACT same guitar as the one you showed in the beginning, besides the fact I got the one with a Floyd Rose so I could learn some silly, fun tricks. It's a beast and still holding up perfectly well! Never getting rid of mine -- even taking it overseas with me to live elsewhere soon.
Same here, except I upgraded the Floyd to an original
Price ? 🤔
@@TazerGames I got it in 2008 or 2009 and it cost $900USD at the time
this is great, it makes me think about getting a schecter 8 or 9 string instead of a fender ultimate if i want to buy a nice guitar at some point, I'll probably be better with the schecter because i always use lots of distortion 👍
get an schecter 8 string bro i play one theyre so well made sturdy and sound great
This all makes so much sense...!!
KROMDAMN BROTHER!!!!!! I am so blown away by your playing nowadays !!! Thank you for that that !!!! You have always inspired me with every bit of your content but when I hear you play now I am absolutely blown away !!!!! Kudos my friend!!!!
I have always loved Schecter and own 2 of them in strat style , and I’ve dreamed of having a V for years but didn’t know yet where to look/choose !! After this video I’ve absolutely made up my mind and I will now be purchasing that exact very V thanks to you and your review of it !!!
Brother Glenn thank you again for enlightening us all about everything music/metal and I am forever grateful !!!! That Schecter V will be my next guitar purchase !!!! Because I fucking trust you for one !!
Please keep the great content coming and never ever give in to corporate bullshit !!!! Rock on brother and oh yah ….. Fuck you Glenn !!!! Peace !!!!
Love SCHECTER! Fantastic review!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Always have great experiences with SCHECTER. Feels like a pro set up straight outta the box!👍
I personally think Schecter has the coolest looking headstocks. I have an Omen-7 and it’s amazing!
Schecter Guitars really have some of the nicest fretwork. They offer a guitar for everyone. Their lineup is really quite extensive.
Your playing is getting really good 👍
Super Sick!!! I'm getting one soon and I can't wait!!! \m/
Thats awesome! If they offered a gloss finish I'd pick that up instantly, just some weird personal preference I have with satin guitars. Would still pick this over the Mustaine any day. Killer review!
same here, I've been suffering a lot as Schecter fan, they offer loads of finishes but plenty of them look too flashy for me, and the black ones are satin, which I don't like....
@@taxo I've heard the same from many people who don't like these guitars, either too eye catchy or "edgy". Idk I have a black glossy Hellraiser Hybrid that has a satin neck. It has the right amount of details for me without being too loud in color.
@@wingsoficarus1139 i mean it's not that all their guitars are gaudy, but plenty. The reaper series for example, loads of green and violet burled burst (burled top worst guitar trend in decades), or the custom series with lacks solid colors for some reason, and many others. If you don't happen to like figured tops you're in trouble with schecter, as 90% of their catalog is built around those, which keeps many metalheads away Imho. There's a reason why rock and metal gigs and festivals are filled with Esp and Jackson artists, but almost no Schecter ones, and it's not the quality of their guitars.
Glen, two guitars off the top of my head that are a awesome deal for the price is the Kramer Baretta and Jackson js22 both are 199 U.S. dollars and both are awesome budget guitars. Any interest in doing a review on ether one?
Just be weary of the Jackson QC. I’ve found it to be pretty bad as of late. Had a Jackson Dave Davidson that had all kinds of flaws and sent it back for a Schecter Keith Merrow and it was so much nicer and $100 cheaper lol
I got a JS22 in metallic blue, awesome for the price, quality on mine was great , no flaws anywhere, did change the tuners for a set of Kluson ones, now it tunes properly.
Happy new year Glenn 🎉 🎛🎸🍻
Schecter is my favorite true budget brand next to Ibanez. They have real budget metal machines. I've had the Sun Valley Super Shredder FR S for 5 years, just recently put a SD Blackout AHB-1 in the bridge to really make Drop C work.
Yeaaahh.....I have the Super Shredder FR S too. Best damn guitar I ever owned. It's just got _galactic_ tone, the Floyd has a brass bridge block (it came with the guitar, it isn't an add on), stays in tune to the point that my fine tuners are feeling neglected🤣, the sustainiac is SICK, and Schecter is my go to company for guitars now.
It's not hard to beat a Gibson for both price and quality. What's hard for many old timers is catching up to today's reality about the best guitars on the market. Schecter is one of many great values.
Man i just love this guy! Keep doing what you do and rock on🤘🤘🤘
Schecter has never disappointed in my opinion amazing work from their shop. The embodiment of quality over quantity. This is the reason why I'd be willing to pay the money for a Schecter before I Even consider a Gibson.
🤘
Glad to see schecter getting some love. Good parts, good woods, and great setup for a great price.Also, If you are into 7s the Keith Merrow guitars might have the best 7 string neck I've tried.
Your guitar playing is sounding cleannn, Glenn 🤘
I got my first schecter in 2007 the c-1 classic in blue and still my go too guitar. Plays great and never have any problems with it. Me and the guys call it old reliable. Gorgeous guitars, they dont break the bank and always reliable. Good stuff!!
I have a Schecter 7 string and a Damien Platinum. I LOVE those guitars. The Damien Platinum is the one of my many guitars I play most often. It feels great and plays like a dream.
I love that you play Painkiller on every guitar. I always test a guitar with the main Creeping Death riff.
What a brilliant video.. wtf man. nice!
Happy New Year Glenn.. Thank You for all of the Hard work that you put into your videos. Its nice to have a Person that does this that is not full of Sh#t because most Guys that do Gear reviews on CZcams are.. I enjoy that you just do this stuff being yourself instead of being a complete fraud.. No surprise with the Quality of the Schecter.. They are probably the best Guitars on the market. Congratualtions on the Axe, I am sure she is a keeper. Anyhow, I just wanted to show some appreciation and say Thank You for all of the knowledge and entertainment that you have provided to us.. Social Medai sure has a large number of People that are simply just Trolls and haters which I am sure is a total downer for someone that puts this amount of time and quality into their videos. Much Respect Dude.. You have earned it!!!!!
I’m in love with my 2005 Omen 6. It has turned into more of a project guitar than anything but man, I love it. The fretwork for its age isn’t terrible, it’s not in bad shape, and I absolutely love the heavier weight it has. And it stays in tune
I got a lower end Schecter model. The Demon 6. Was just an impulse buy to have 24 fret guitar. I have a first year model with Duncan Designed pickups which I fell in love with. Just love the this guitar.
Where you finding all those awesome shirts?? Awesome video as always! I love my Schecter Diamond Series! One of my goto guitars!
Thanks for the review, great tone! Would love to see a review on the Schecter Simon Gallup bass!🙏🏻🎧
A flying V was not on my next guitar plans, until now!!! I do really want to give this evil twin a try!.- Thanks Glenn
I’m not a huge fan of v’s but that does look nice and I’m a sucker for neck throughs and string through’s. Nice playing too glen!!
The back of that thing is swamp ash, and it's so beautiful. The Solo II Apocalypse Red Reign is made of the same material. Love it so much.
So cool! I’m going to buy one of these!
that guitar sounds amazing really love how they put the roman numerals instead of the simple dot really like that
Love the c-1! Probably my fav guitar body weather it's an elite, stealth, hellraiser, or whatever they are beautiful guitars!
I have a Hellraiser Special from 2010, and it's still my main axe for metal. I recently bought a Nick Johnston signature model. Huge difference in the neck, so i believe they've made differences over the the years. It also came in with locking tuners, which made me buy some for my Hellraiser. They are light tho!!! Only my demon 7 is a little bit on the heavy side. Other than that, I'm very happy with my Schecters.
Great video man! Also, your playing just gets better and better (as it should)!!! Happy new year from Laredo Tx
Thanks so much! Any requests for a guitar to review?
I owned the exact C-1 Hellraiser for many years, and this year went to the 7 string, and has always been the best guitar I've ever owned. I do all my studio work with these guitars.
Wow, thats a sharp looking guitar !! I agree Schecter is one of those brands that punchs much under the price points of the larger known brands with equal if not better quality !!
really need this guitar !!
It sounds fantastic! I've never even played a Schecter, but I'd like to own that!
TOTALL BADASSERY! Good 1 I'm thinking of getting the Evil Twin E1. It's the Schecter Explorer version. Thanks Glenn Ill be back!!
Ya know, Glenn.... it's nice to see you showing some love
Schecter is knocking it out of the park. I love my Schecter tele with Bigsby and switchable humbuckers.
