What we say:
At A Glance:
The C-8 is Schecter's seriously affordable 8 string with a solid build and some earth-shaking tones. With a straightforward bolted-on construction of a basswood body and maple neck, this no-nonsense rock machine goes for simple and direct. A string-through body bridge gives more sustain and resonance and the Schecter Diamond Plus pickups supply a range of heavy tones with good detail in the low end. This is a worthy entrance to the world of extended-range guitars.
Features We Love:
Diamond Plus Pickups
Fitted with a pair of humbuckers, this guitar is capable of a mean growl when pushed. So if a guitar with a bit more of a crunch is what you're after, this model will be able to handle it.
Solid Body Construction
The solid body construction of this model comes with a few benefits - added sustain, feedback resistance, and a tighter, more focused low end. These benefits are but a few of the reasons that players of heavier music favour this type of guitar.
Extended Range
With the addition of a seventh and eighth string on this model, you're gifted a whole host of new possibilities and sounds. If you're used to playing six string guitars then this model is a fantastic entry point to a completely new territory without breaking the bank.
Highlights:
- Humbucking set of pickups capable of a heavier sound
- Solid Body comes with great benefits
- Two extra strings mean that you'll be able to play heavier than ever
