The C-1 Pale Moon is made for rock musicians who demand power, precision, and expression. The swamp ash body with an elegant Pale Moon ebony top in Natural Satin Black Burst provides a striking look and assertive tone. The neck-through neck made of 7-piece maple/walnut/padauk with an ultra-thin C profile delivers maximum speed and sustain across the entire 25.5" scale length. With SCHECTER Brimstone-6 on the neck, 24 stainless steel X-jumbo frets, SCHECTER Nouveau Ergo Hardtail bridge, and locking tuners, nothing stands in the way of fat riffs, singing leads, and uncompromising stage performance.
Schecter produces both time-honored replicas and contemporary single coils and humbucker pickups. All pickups from A for “Apocalypse” to Z for “Z Plus” are produced in the USA. From vintage to ultra-hot sounds, from six to eight strings, Schecter has the right pickup for everyone.
Locking tuners are specifically designed to increase tuning stability while making string changes easier. The main difference from traditional tuners is the way the strings are attached. With locking tuners, the string is not only wrapped around the mechanism, but also secured by a locking system. This system consists of a small clamping mechanism or screw that holds the string in place.
A "neck-thru" neck represents a sophisticated and high-quality construction. In contrast to guitars with screwed or glued necks, the neck extends through the entire body of the guitar. A key advantage of the neck-thru design is improved string transfer and longer sustain. Another plus point is easier access to higher frets. Due to the continuous neck, guitarists can effortlessly play up to the highest frets without a neck-body connection getting in the way.
