Schecter C-1 SLS Elite LH Black Fade Burst Lefthand elaborately built
The C-1 SLS Elite LH Black Fade Burst Lefthand from Schecter features a sophisticated neck-thru construction and a first-class selection of woods. The heart of the electric guitar is the seven-piece neck made of maple, walnut and padouk, which is additionally reinforced by carbon inlays. Furthermore, body wings made of swamp ash with a top made of flamed maple are glued to the neck. The extremely flat "Ultra Thin C" neck profile and the compound radius of the ebony fretboard, which increases from 12" to 14", also ensure absolutely unhindered playability.
Fishman Fluence Modern pickups for versatile rock and metal sounds
The Schecter C-1 SLS Elite LH features a Fishman Fluence Modern Alnico humbucker on the neck and a Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic humbucker on the bridge. Based on the innovative Fluence Core, each pickup offers two distinctive voicings that blur the boundaries between active and passive humbuckers and provide versatile sounds for modern rock and metal. The pickups are controlled via push/pull volume and tone pots as well as a 3-way blade switch.
High quality hardware
In terms of hardware, the Schecter Lefthand electric guitar also impresses with its high quality equipment. The Hipshot Hardtailbridge on the body, with its solid strings-thru-body construction, is not without reason the absolute standard for a tight sound, while the generous adjustment range of the string saddles guarantees optimal intonation and string action even in deep drop tunings. The headstock features a low-friction Black TUSQ XL nutfrom Graph Tech, which, in combination with the Schecter locking tuners, guarantees precise and stable tuning.

Schecter C-1 SLS Elite LH Black Fade Burst Lefthand
Amazing Instrument and pickups. The guitar came with no flaws, low action & ready to play. The pickups are amazing if they had the coil splitting functionality we would have been talking about a very versatile instrument. This is an upgrade I will do in the future. The pickups are noiseless and it's highly recommended for studio recordings. Fret work and edges very smooth, ultra fast neck not as thin as an Ibanez Wizard but I prefer it. Woods are very good too and finish is flawless.
