DISC Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder FR S Left Handed, Satin Black

Full Description

Sustainiac Pickup & Electronics

The Sun Valley Super Shredder is equipped with an innovative Sustainiac pickup system, allowing players to add unique effects and harmonic overtones to their performance. The Sustainiac can prolong the sustain of the guitar by capturing the vibrations and turning them into vibration energy, this is then distributed back to the strings to increase the sustain of a note for as long as required. The Sustainiac also features an on/off switch and a mode switch, with the options between fundamental, harmonic, or a mix between the two. Selecting the fundamental mode will allow the strings to vibrate normally, but with an infinite sustain, while harmonic mode morphs plucked notes into a high harmonic vibration.

EMG Retro Active Hot 70 Humbucker

The guitar also comes equipped with EMG’s Retro Active Hot 70 humbucker, offering high output tones and an incredible versatile performance. Designed to offer all the benefits of an active pickup with the feel and dynamics of a passive, the EMG humbucker delivers beautifully vintage tones which reminisce of 70’s rock. The pickup is also equipped with a uniquely voiced plug-in FET preamp, delivering a low-impedance output and removing any unwanted noise, hum, and buzz.

Solid Mahogany Body

The Schecter Sun Velley Guitar offers a well-balanced tone, delivering everything from aggressive crunchy sounds to rich, clean tones ideal for the modern-day player. The mahogany body offers naturally warm tones, with a touch of bite for creating tights lows and appealing highs. Its sweet sonic punch and rich character delivers an excellent amount of depth, providing an incredible sustain and resonance which is only enhanced by the bolt-on construction.

Maple Neck & Fingerboard

With a neck and fingerboard both constructed from maple, the Schecter’s tone is tight and features plenty of cut, providing an edge of sizzle to the highs while firming up the lows. The maple wood provides bright characteristics to the overall tone, offering a snappy attack in the midrange to cut through dense mixes. When the strings are played hard, the wood adds extra layers of punch to the tone, while light to medium picking offers more clarity. Its thin 'C' profile is ideal for deliver fast performances and speed runs, with its shape allowing the hand to naturally cup the neck for an incredibly comfortable playing experience.
