Overview
The Schecter Damien takes haunting looks, high performance playability and tone, and packages it into an incredibly affordable price. A satin black mahogany body provides a rich and complex combination of warmth, resonance and sustain.
A maple neck with rosewood fretboard, thin C neck shape, 14" radius, 25.5" scale length, and 24 extra jumbo frets is built for speed, tone, and effortless playability. Lightning fast runs, arpeggios, and hammer-ons have never been easier. Pearloid bat inlays adorn this menacing machine.
The Damien is loaded with a set of Schecter Diamond "Heretic" humbucker pickups which produce a balanced yet aggressive and combative tone. The center Alnico V magnet coupled with Ceramic 8 flanking magnets deliver a crushing mid-range while maintaining a tight, focused and articulate response. The Heretic pickups were designed to conjure the heaviest tones that shake the ground you stand on. Volume/Tone(push-pull)/3-way switch controls gives you an infinite selection of tonal choices.
A Graphtech Black Tusq XL nut boosts tone and performance while bringing out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. A precise fixed bridge and Schecter tuners put the finishing touches on this undisputed pound for pound champion of guitars being offered at this price point.
Optional SGR-1C molded hardshell case sold separately.

"Sexxy dark and awesome sound."
Expect it to last. I have no illusions of being a guitar god, but I think the guitar thinks I do.
Went over my budget to get it because I fell in love with it at first site.
Sound
Bought this guitar at Guitar city after looking at an Ibanez, the salesman (knows me well) brought this guitar and I had personally never heard of Schecter. Then we plugged it into an amp, and the old 80's rock salesman played 'Talk Dirty To Me'. Sold by the sound, side by side with a more expensive Ibanez, it sounds better.
Features
3-way humbucker switch and the usual tone and vol knobs. No wammy bar, which in NO WAY needs it.
Ease of Use
Comfortable to hold and very aesthetic to dark metal.
Quality
Appeasing to the tastes of dark metal, this guitar is played by guitarists from 3 Days Grace, Type O Negative, and Black Label Society. The color is a sweet satin black, the inlay, pearl bats.
Value
Well worth the money.
Manufacturer Support
Not sure, don't need it.
The Wow Factor
Sexxy, sultry, seductive, tantalizing, and defiantly dark.
