What we say:

Since 1976, Schecter guitars have carved a unique and highly revered path through the world of original guitar design. No mere copyists, Schecter are known for some truly outlandish designs but are equally well known for their high quality control and rock 'n' roll attitude. For those players who are a little wearied with the usual models on offer, dive into the world of Schecter guitars and discover a treasure trove of original thinking mixed with some of the best hardware and construction available. Their designs fit every pocket, too: A-list rock stars go out on stage with these guitars and so can you.

This Floyd-equipped Omen is a fantastic mix of value, performance and trusted Schecter quality. The chunky Mahogany body is luxuriously topped with quilted maple and finished in a sumptuous shade of See-through Black. It's a bolt-on construction model and this maple neck sports 24 extra jumbo frets on a rosewood fretboard with a 14" radius.

A pair of Schecter Diamond Plus open coil humbuckers are on board here to dish out some high voltage rock tones. A Floyd Rose Special locking trem brings out the harmonic screams and savage dive-bombs required of a fully-fledged shred solo. This rock axe is fully prepared to throw out some extreme noise!

Customer reviews

Overall Rating 4/5 (1 reviews)

The guitar plays wonderfully, as do most of the Schecters I have ever played. They seem to come out of the factory with a well adjusted set up, and most of them are robust enough to survive shipping with the neck relief and intonation intact. Something about the body shape suits me, and the maple neck profile and jumbo frets are a joy. I was less sure of the tremolo system (Floyd Rose), which I have never used before. It certainly keeps the strings in tune, but it did require some minor adjustment at home, and I am not looking forward to changing the strings! The mahogany two piece body is finished in a conservative grey, but the quilted maple top gives a nice laid back shimmer. The main weakness with this guitar is the pickups, and the coil tap gives little relief. The bumhuggers are thick and mushy, and when coil tapped they don't gain any real sparkle, just sounding slightly thinner and less loud. At some point I will upgrade the pickups, but I would guess that if all you need is out and out DJENT you should be sorted.
