The Van Nuys series pays homage to Schecter's '80s roots, when the company was known as a premium guitar mod shop. Enabling the hair metal shredders of the era to upgrade their tame S and T-type instruments with powerful pickups and high-performance tremolo systems, the Van Nuys series perfectly captures the spirit of those hot-rodded guitars and enhances them with some extra modern refinements.
Key Features
- Ash Body — Exquisite tonewood with a stunning grain. Rich in sustain with a smooth mid-range and bright, bell-like highs.
- Roasted Maple Neck — 'Roasting' process removes moisture from the wood, making the neck far less vulnerable to warping when exposed to varying climates and ensuring incredible tuning stability.
- Bolt-On Construction — Yields a snappy tone for an immediate note response.
- 22 X-Jumbo Frets — Large size offers a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
- Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage Pickups — Sizzling dynamic tones, perfect for '80s metal and classic rock.
- 5-Way Pickup Selector Switch — Allows you to attain a versatile combination of full humbucking and split-coil sounds, for a wide tonal palette.
- Diamond Vintage Tremolo — 2-point design provides a smooth vibrato arm action for tasteful dips and dives.
- Schecter Locking Tuners — Ingenious locking mechanism makes restringing easier and means less string winds around the tuning posts; resulting a better tuning stability.
- Graph Tech XL Black Tusq Nut — Low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips and enhances sustain.
