Schecter Hellraiser Hybrid C-7 FR, Trans Black Burst

Full Description

Hellraiser Hybrid C-7

The Schecter Hellraiser Hybrid has a massively powerful pickup set and fast playing neck specification to deliver searing metal tones with effortless playability. The mahogany body lends warmth and sustain to your sound, and is topped with maple for an increase in harmonic overtones and resonance. Schecter has honed this guitar for metal and rock with an instrument that offers clarity, power, and no barriers to your playing technique.

EMG 57/66

The EMG 57 pickup uses alnico magnets for a PAF quality of tone. It has incredible headroom to provide the punch and articulation necessary for low-range riffing. The EMG 66 neck pickup is voiced for a warm and smooth mid-range that gives a liquid-smooth sound and long sustain for playing solos. 

These two pickups are specially paired by EMG to give you the ultimate high-gain sound. They complement the warm mahogany body by adding clarity and power to your sound. The pickups provide exceptional note clarity in complex chords, alongside a sympathetic lead guitar sound with sustain and mid-range power. They are the ideal combination for all styles of metal guitar playing.

Fast Neck Specification

The Hellraiser Hybrid has a modern neck specification geared towards fast playing. It has a thin 'C' profile that sits comfortably in the hand and allows easy reach to all 7 strings. The neck is mounted to the body with a set-neck "Ultra Access" design; when combined with the double cutaway body, this joint allows you to access the whole length of the fingerboard with ease.

The neck is mounted with 24 extra-jumbo frets to provide excellent control of the strings when playing string bends and vibrato. The frets are fixed with a modern compound radius, giving you the perfect balance between low-fret chordal comfort (with a more rounded radius) and high-fret playability (with a flatter radius).

Resonant Tonewoods

The Hellraiser Hybrid's body is crafted from mahogany for a warm tonal response with great sustain. It is topped with maple which adds harmonic overtones and resonance, along with adding to the guitar's classy aesthetic.  The ebony fingerboard assists with low-end articulation and provides a smooth playing surface for the left hand.

Professional Features

The Hellraiser Hybrid has a Floyd Rose tremolo for wild whammy bar antics. The double-locking design ensures smooth operation and a reliable ability to return the strings back to pitch, even after the most vigorous use. The C-7 also has glow-in-the-dark side markers along the neck which are ideal for professional use on dark stages. Every design specification on the C-7 is chosen for quality tone, high performance feel, and reliable operation; this makes it an excellent-value guitar for the level of performance that it offers.
