A gorgeous flamed maple top covers a swamp ash body for warm tones and great looks. A thin "U" shaped maple/paduak neck with ebony fretboard and stainless steel frets are there to shred. The Hipshot bridge and Hipshot tuners are there for comfort and tuning stability and are renowned throughout the guitar playing world for their durability." -Schecter

This guitar weighs 6LBS 6oz and comes with the original hard case.

This thing plays like a dream. It is in near mint condition. The only sign of wear is a small nick near the output jack. Other than that the guitar is flawless. This is a near perfect combination of craftsmanship, playability, and great looks. The Wenge/Padauk five-ply neck with two carbon fiber reinforcement rods not only looks sleek, but feels excellent in the hand. The frets are jumbo and allow for comfortable shredding all the way up to the 24th with no buzzing. The Hipshot bridge and tuners are very comfortable and easy to fine tune and adjust. If you're looking for an excellent metal guitar for under $1500, this is the ONE. Come check it out before someone else snags it.
