Product features:
Body
- Though pickups play a role in transmitting the mechanical energy into electrical energy, the body of the electric guitar also plays a role in shaping the final tune of the sound. To make the body resistant to string tension and maintain resonance the body of a Schecter Damien is made of Basswood. The beauty of this guitar is further enhanced by use of black pearl inlays.
Neck
- It is made of Maplewood. Maple wood used in the making of a guitar neck gives it the ability to resist the stress of heavier gauge strings. This resistance to bending in turn offers it the ability to maintain constant pitch while tuning. The curvature of the neck is perfect and helps to prevent the buzz. The use of maple wood also makes it resistant to environmental changes. It has bolt-on construction in which the neck is bolted to the body of the guitar.
- 24 jumbo Nickel frets that are laid according to a mathematical ratio enable a perfect division of the octave. The jumbo frets enable musicians to use slight vibrato while pushing the string either slightly or hard.
Inlays
- Inlays are decorative visual elements placed on the fret board & are made of Black pearl.
Grover tuners
- It uses 102-18 series with 18:1 gear ratio. This higher gearing ratio supports finer tuning that remains highly stable. It has fine gears that help in increased backlash exclusion.
Finger board
- Schecter uses the commonly used Rosewood finger board. The oily surface of Rosewood makes it comfortable to play and allows fingers to run smoothly. The best part of this oily surface is that the stray overtones are easily absorbed producing rich high quality sound.
Bridge
- The Damien 7 uses the Tune-o-Matic bridge that passes through the body of the guitar. This bridge uses the classic 81-7 setup so as to offer exceptional quality output.
Playability
- It is very easy and comfortable to play. The thin and broad neck of a Schecter Damien 7 is definitely comfortable to guitars players who are used to fast action as compared to guitars like an Ibanez.
Design
- It is bit heavier than some guitar models due to the extra wood. However, this is also responsible for the signature Schecter deep tone.
