Schecter 7 String Precision

Schecter 7 String guitars are not only built with precision and unique designs developed by Schecter, but also from years of input from their biggest fans – the artists themselves. Through that, Schecter has developed some of the greatest 7-string guitar designs known around the word today – fitting the needs and potential of musicians from all walks and genres.

What makes Schecter unique in the guitar field is that their instruments are fully functional pieces of art – from body to neck to pickups and tuning mechanisms. Just take a look at some of the features found in most Schecter 7 String guitars available today:

The Body

Schecter uses maple and mahogany because they are strong and have a uniform grain. This makes for an elegantly sculpted body, and because maple is more resistant to temperature, moisture, and pressure changes than wood used in other guitars, Schecter bodies are more resistant to warping over time. This also provides gorgeous complementary colors to the warm mahogany that Schecter uses in some of its 7-string guitars.

The Neck

Schecter realises that a surface that sees the most contact from human touch requires a special material. This is why Schecter 7 String guitars use Rosewood and Mahogany. This porous yet naturally oiled wood not only absorbs the moisture from the fingers, but also is resistant to warping. The inherent properties of Rosewood also provides for a much richer sound from the fingerboard than typically solid maple necks.

Tuning

Designed and developed by Schecter, many of their 7-string guitars feature Schecter Locking Tuners – which is a specialized screw fixture to lock the strings into place. This allows you to play for hours on end without having to worry about your custom tunings slipping out of place, or stopping to re-tune your guitar.

The Sound

Schecter 7 String guitars offer the rich sound and a wider range of playing than other guitars. There is no need to buy a separate drop tuned six-string, or host of other instruments just to be able to reach down deep while still being able to hit the higher registers.

 

With the added seventh string, Schecter guitars open up a wide variety of open tunings for the player, as well as an expanded spectrum of bass tones – giving you more freedom and a wider range in your compositions and playing techniques.
