Easily one of the nicest playing guitars, with a fantastic sound. The embellishments are beautiful but don't really suit me.
It's currently set-up in drop-C, with a Tremol-No ($100) trem-stop, and low-noise trem-springs installed. I'd planned to remove the tremol-no and restore to factory trem-claw/springs and E-standard tuning/set-up. Until then, it's all priced-in, and original parts are included. Will update ad accordingly if and when I make the changes.

SPECS:
This stunning mahogany Schecter delivers incredible tone with an active EMG 81 pickup, plus a Sustainiac electromagnetic driver for never-ending sustain.
**Pierce Ears with This Schecter's Endless Sustain:** You haven't heard how long notes can last until you shoulder the Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR-S electric guitar. This stunning axe fuels your signal via an EMG 81 active humbucker in the bridge and a Sustainiac in the neck position, housed in a dark-sounding mahogany body. A three-piece mahogany neck harnesses razor-thin action over 24 jumbo frets in a super-smooth rosewood fingerboard, and cool dark chrome hardware, a super-flexible Floyd Rose 1000 Series bridge, and volume, push/pull tone, and intensity controls all bring you a superb speed-demon axe that's ready to unleash some sinister tone.
**EMG 81 Bridge and Sustainiac Neck Humbucker Pickups:** Lead fearlessly with the Hellraiser C-1's pickup complement: an EMG 81 active humbucker in the bridge and Sustainiac in the neck position. Your bridge pickup packs powerful overdrive and a full and heavy distortion perfect for rock or metal, and the Sustainiac neck pickup captures and retains an endless and spine-bending sustain from your strings via the two-way switch next to your Hellraiser's bridge. Flip the switch to kill the feedback and turn your Sustainiac into another sweet-sounding neck humbucker. Both pickups are shielded in protective casings to keep out rust, dust, and sweat, so your tone will always be clean, pristine, and uninterrupted.
**Three-piece Mahogany Neck:** Your Schecter Hellraiser's extra-stable neck is built from three separate pieces of mahogany. This tonewood provides a dark tone to your playing, accentuating lows and mids. This comfy appendage features a rosewood fingerboard and 24 jumbo frets with super-close action for speedy runs. Sleek abalone gothic cross inlays offer an appealing visual edge that goes well with this axe's darker tonal character.
**Dive Super Low: Floyd Rose 1000 Series Bridge:** Your Schecter Hellraiser features a super-flexible Floyd Rose 1000 Series bridge. This quality piece of hardware will keep your tuning in check -- so go ahead and dive this baby as low as possible before returning your strings to their standard tensions. Use the Floyd Rose in conjunction with your sustain-engaged Sustainiac neck humbucker, and you'll create sounds that just aren't on the table with other axes!
