Overview
Batton down the hatches, a Tempest is coming. The Schecter Tempest Custom took the world by storm over a decade ago and returns again to shake the foundations of the soul. A beautiful mahogany body in Schecter's stunning Tempest double cut body shape is joined with a 3 piece mahogany deep insert set neck. The ebony fretboard feels smooth and slick.
A thick C neck shape, 24.75" scale length, and 14" fretboard radius feel comfortable and vintage while simultaneously allowing for fast and hard rocking passages. The Tempest Custom is armed with Schecter USA Pasadena/Pasadena Plus humbucking pickups which are aggressive, powerful and driven allowing for many options that range from thick and crunchy to jangley and bright.
The highly sought after Schecter locking tuners are known for their tuning stability and quick ease of use. Other top notch features are a TonePros bridge and Graphtech nut. SGR-4T molded hardshell case sold separately.

"This Guitar Just ROCKS!"

I just received this guitar and it Rocks! I love it! The Pickups sound great and there is no need to change them. I will change probley change out the pots and the selector switch just to put on different knobs and switch tips. Otherwise, if you didn't want to do that, It play's just fine. I will probley change out the pickup plastic surrounds for some Gibson custom shop ones that I have laying around. I love this guitar it play's so good , It's like a Gibson/PRS guitar only without the Bird inlays. I will keep this guitar forever !
