@theinfernalhess thats a load of shit. The 59 is one of the brightest passive pickups on the market and there is no way that an 85 is brighter. 85's are extremely bassy and muddy sounding compared to the 59.
@theinfernalhess In australia, guitars are double the price that they are in the US. At the time models on the internet were around 900-1000 US dollars, so i figured why not just get it from a store that i could try out the guitar from. I got it a very good price considering usual australian rates.
@ScottysGuitar Personally don't like Schecter's 'paul copy...but then I'm not a huge fan of les pauls either. Like the looks of the c series, own 2 c-1 elite's and a c-1 classic with emg's. had a luth change the neck radius on the classic.. exceptional tone and versitility from schecter. nice chattin with you scotty, enjoy the guitar dude.
Agreed, they are pretty cool, But you can't beat a strat plugged into a bluesbreaker or something like that. It's not the same. They are still really handy though.
tru tru, very true. i was wondering if u could do like a sustain test and just run through the pick selection in a video, u know sutain at 12th fret g string, beng high 21st fret on e or somthing and just ring out chords, u kno, it would be really handy. only if u got time, im deciding between this and a gibson les paul standard. thanks man
@DrumNBum if you have the choice, and the money, why would you buy a copy when you can buy the real deal? I play schecters exclusively, (except for my Gibson JS acoustic.) but If I could afford to play PRS I would.
@theinfernalhess well this guitar isnt too bad but buying a guitar that is over 2grand isnt the most realaistic thing ever u know? im only 18 i have the money but im sure i can get somthing for just as good. ive found some used lespauls in the 90s and later for about 1200 to 1600 bucks on ebay they got alot of wear and buckle rash but itsstill a rocking gibson. im all about saving money but im not one to cheap out on quality. so this seems like a good compremise.
@DrumNBum Ahh the infamous coil tap.... I don't know about other manufacturers, but my tech tells me that schecter factory wires their hb pickups in sc. I argued, but he proved himself. From the factory, schecter coil tapping is backwards, when you pull the pot, you are getting the full HB tone, when it's pushed down, SC. Look at a wiring diagram and you gtr. Had all mine swithched, and then switched back lol.
Coil tap on my gryphon makes that nice glassy tone center position.

coil taps are best for solo and twangy stuff. i haven't been able to find one to try here in america.

how would you say the neck on this guitar compares to a schecter tempest?
deadgen12 2 years ago
Basically the same, from memory.
ScottysGuitar 2 years ago
is the tempest neck slim or beefy?
theaceofspadesjl 2 years ago
I wouldn't say it's slim, but i wouldn't say it compares to an LP neck or anything. It a little thicker than midrange.
ScottysGuitar 2 years ago
its sort of medium. i would say it has a wide flat feel. really comfortable which is why im buying this guitar
