Key Features
Product Ref: 104459
The Schecter Blackjack SLS C-1 has a massively powerful pickup set and fast playing neck specification to deliver searing metal tones with effortless playability. The mahogany body lends warmth and sustain to your sound, and is matched to a maple neck for an increase in harmonic overtones and resonance. Schecter has honed this guitar for metal and rock with an instrument that offers clarity, power, and no barriers to your playing technique.
The Seymour Duncan Blackout pickups are battery powered for increased power and output. The neck and bridge units are purpose built for their position on the guitar, and they combine to give you great versatility and nuanced tones.
Active pickups used to have a bad reputation for being an 'all or nothing' sound. Seymour Duncan's Blackouts are the solution to this problem – they provide great power and articulation yet still have tonal nuance and an organic response to your playing dynamics. They are the ideal pairing for creating searing solos, articulate riffs, and complex chords with individual note clarity.
The Blackjack SLS C-1 has a modern neck specification geared towards fast playing. It has a thin 'C' profile that sits comfortably in the hand and a set-neck joint with a low-profile. The set-neck "Ultra Access" design and double cutaway body allows you to easily access the whole length of the fingerboard with ease.
The neck is mounted with 24 extra-jumbo frets to provide excellent control of the strings when playing string bends and vibrato. The frets are fixed with a modern compound radius, giving you the perfect balance between low-fret chordal comfort (with a more rounded radius) and high-fret playability (with a flatter radius).
The Blackjack SLS C-1's body is crafted from mahogany for a warm tonal response with great sustain. The neck is maple and adds harmonic overtones and resonance. The ebony fingerboard assists with low-end articulation and provides a smooth playing surface for the left hand.
The Blackjack SLS C-1 has a fixed bridge with string thru body for rock-solid tuning stability and increased string resonance. Grover locking tuners contribute to the stable tuning of the C-1 and the Graph Tech nut gives a low-friction platform for the strings to sit. This hardware is chosen to cope well with low-tunings and aggressive performances, enhancing the Blackjack SLS's capability as a metal guitar.
