Description

The Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR S is a no holds barred precision instrument for rock and metal guitarists. Featuring all mahogany construction including a glued ‘Ultra Access’ neck join that allows incredible playability to the very top of the fretboard. The Hellraiser C-1 also features active EMG 89 bridge humbucker for insanely high output tones with bone crushing lows and precise highs and Sustainiac in the neck position for infinite controllable sustain at the push of a button! The 1000 Floyd Rose keeps tuning stable even after serious whammy bar abuse, even after other trems would give up and break!

But not just all about the playability and sound, the Hellraiser C-1 FR S is stunning with high gloss finish and Gray Pearl binding for a really premium look!

Here’s what Schecter say about the Hellraiser C-1 FR

The active EMG 81TW and 89 pickups can be split via the push / pull pot and thus also provide the original single coil sound.

The 3-piece mahogany neck is glued into the arched mahogany body and offers Schecters known “Ultra Access” easy access to the upper frets. Additional features: Original Floyd Rose, Black Chrome Hardware, Graph Tech Tusq saddles and Schecter locking tuners.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

S Style Electric Guitars

S style electric guitars are known for their comfortable contours, versatile tones, and expressive playability. Typically featuring a double-cutaway body and a vibrato bridge, they offer easy access to higher frets and a naturally balanced feel whether standing or seated. Their pickup configurations often favour clarity and articulation, making them well suited to clean sounds, edge-of-breakup tones, and expressive lead playing, while still handling heavier styles with the right setup. S style guitars are valued for their responsiveness to touch and dynamics, making them a popular choice for players who want an instrument that feels fluid, familiar, and adaptable across a wide range of music.
