This C-1 FR-S packs a fire-breathing Schecter bridge humbucker for crushing riffs and soaring leads, plus a Sustainiac system for some seriously fun sustain and feedback tricks.

It’s the perfect guitar to inspire confidence and take your playing to new heights.

Schecter 50th Anniversary

Schecter are marking their 50th anniversary in style! These limited-edition models feature gorgeous metallic Gold Burst finishes paired with striking gold/black hybrid hardware. To top it off, their bridge pickups sport custom covers emblazoned with the 50th Anniversary logo — a classy nod to five decades of guitar-making excellence.

Key Features

  • Neck-through body design: This construction creates a seamless feel and great tonal transfer, so every note rings out with clarity. The “Ultra Access” design means you can easily reach those high frets too.
  • 7-Piece Maple/Walnut/Padauk neck: Not only gorgeous but built for strength and stability. Plus, with an Ultra-Thin “C” profile, it’s perfect if you’re a shredder after a lightning-fast feel.
  • 24 X-jumbo stainless steel frets: Go big or go home! These frets make bending a breeze and stay pristine for years, giving you awesome playability and durability.
  • 12-16” compound radius fingerboard: Start with a comfy, rounded feel near the nut for easy cowboy chords, then glide up to a flatter radius for effortless bends and shred-friendly action. It’s the best of both worlds.
  • Schecter Sunset Strip bridge humbucker: Expect searing high-gain aggression when you need it and smooth, vintage-flavoured cleans when you dial things back.
  • Sustainiac neck pickup: Lets you hold notes for days, opening up a world of creative possibilities — from singing solos to ambient soundscapes.
  • Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo: Dip, dive, flutter and still come back in tune.
  • TonePros M-Series locking tuners: Make string changes quick and painless while giving you rock-solid stability for the stage or studio.
