Description
Aaron Marshall is a modern guitar virtuoso. The mastermind behind Canadian progressive metal outfit Intervals, Marshall’s incredible technical proficiency and ear for melody has set him apart from most of his contemporaries. After years of playing custom instruments from all kinds of exotic brands, Marshall has finally found his home at Schecter — launching a high-performance signature guitar that’s understated in the looks department, but packing some serious player-centric appointments!
Key Features
- Basswood Body — A light, balanced-sounding tonewood that allows the full character of the Schecter USA pickups to shine through.
- 12″-16” Compound Radius Fingerboard — This ergonomic fingerboard radius is slightly rounded at the lower end of the neck to make chords easier to fret and flattens out the higher you go so that fast passages feel much easier to play. It also helps to prevent string bends from fretting out!
- 24 X-Jumbo Stainless-Steel Frets — Large size offers a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends. Stainless steel material is corrosion-resistant and harder to wear down than conventional fret-wire.
- Schecter USA Pickups — Solstice and Equinox humbuckers are optimized for the tight, punchy and articulate riffs/leads that Marshall is renowned for.
- 5-Position Pickup Selector Switch — Yields 5 sounds in total; providing a mixture of full humbucking and split-coil tones.
- Gotoh Tremolo — Superbly-machined, 2-point bridge offers a responsive vibrato action and ensures precise return to pitch after heavy use.
