DISC Schecter Hellcat VI, Ivory Pearl Overview

View this description in Czech

The Schecter Hellcat VI in Ivory Pearl is a vintage inspired baritone/bass guitar. It bridges the gap between guitar and bass instruments, not quite sitting fully in either camp and instead forging its own identity. It has 6 strings with traditional electric guitar string-spacing, yet has a 30'' scale length allowing the tuning to be set an octave lower than standard for a unique bass/baritone crossover sound. The Hellcat is loaded with USA Schecter MonsterTone pickups for super-charged single coil tones. Each pickup has an individual coil-split on-off switch to provide the option to select between lighter and heavier tones, while the whole pickup set is wired to a 5-way switch to offer multiple sound combinations. The Hellcat has a modern neck specification with extra-jumbo frets and a low-profile 5-bolt neck joint for effortless playability. The guitar is crafted with many vintage design touches and gives the appeal of a classic instrument balanced with a modern playability and unique tonality. The Hellcat is the ideal guitar to expand your sound world and inspire you with expansive low-range sounds and deeply resonant tones.

Baritone / Bass Range Guitar

The Schecter Hellcat VI is a unique instrument that bridges the gap between guitar and bass. While it looks and feels like a baritone guitar, it is tuned an octave lower than traditional guitars for an authentic bass range. The Hellcat has a vintage aesthetic and a unique player experience, making it the ideal instrument to stand out from the crowd, both visually and tonally.

Fast Neck Specification

The Hellcat IV has a modern neck providing an effortless playing experience. It has a comfy 'C' profile that sits easily in the left hand. The fingerboard is mounted with a modern 12'' radius that provides the balance between chordal comfort and soloing ease.

The Hellcat has 22 frets which are extra-jumbo size for excellent left-hand grip on the strings. The neck is mounted to the body with a sculpted low-profile 5-bolt joint which you'll hardly notice when you're gliding up and down the fingerboard.

Resonant Tonewoods

The Hellcat is constructed with swamp ash which provides brightness and clarity; perfect for low-tuned spacious tones. The body is highly contoured for a comfortable playing feel, and is mounted to a classic maple neck for added brightness. The neck has a pau ferro fingerboard for a classic 'rosewood' response (smooth feel, excellent note attack) but with a more environmentally responsible construction.

Vintage Design Touches

The Hellcat VI has many vintage-inspired design touches, making it a classic and distinct instrument in its own right. It has a unique offset body shape with a classic-looking tortoiseshell pickguard. The headstock has a unique split colour design and is mounted to a maple neck with vintage faded colour.

USA MonsterTone Pickups

The Hellcat VI has 3 USA Schecter MonsterTone pickups which provide super-charged single coil tones. Each pickup has its own mini-switch to allow coil-splitting, giving you both full-bodied powerful tones switchable to the clarity and sparkle of a true single coil. These pickups are wired to a 5-way switch for multiple tone combinations.

Rock Solid Hardware

The Hellcat VI has a TonePros bridge system with custom brass saddles to slightly subdue the top-end and give a mellow and sustaining resonance. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, in combination with Grover Tuners, provides a resistance-free string action for superior tuning stability.
