Here’s what Schecter say:

Unleash your heaviest riffs with the Red Dawn – an axe crafted for shredders who demand power, precision, and performance. With its brutal looks, razor-sharp tone, and unbeatable playability, this guitar is the weapon of choice for serious players who want to push the limits of creativity. This 6-string Red Dawn model boasts the series’ signature gloss black finish with striking red appointments, a lightning-fast neck, and no-nonsense hardware. The result? A riff machine that plays & sounds as lethal as it looks.

Key features

  • Fishman Fluence Modern pickups – Ceramic in the bridge & Alnico in the neck, expect razor-sharp mix cut-through and powerful saturation, with heaps of dynamic articulation in the neck position – not to mention 3 switchable Fluence voices per pickup!
  • Ultra-Thin ‘C’ neck with Stainless Steel frets – Optimised for confident, seamless riff execution and ultra-fluid lead playing, this neck puts accuracy & performance first.
  • Precision hardware – Zero-compromise tuning stability and string tension makes the Red Dawn models ideal for drop-tuning, high-octane bends, and wailing pinch harmonics.

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.
