Schecter Announces BlackJack Collection at Winter NAMM

Click image for closeup

New from Schecter is the "BlackJack Collection" consisting of six guitars.

All "BlackJack" models will be armed with the Seymour Duncan JB (SH-4) and '59 (SH-1n) pickup combination, which can be 'tapped' via a push/pull tone control or a 5-way Mega Switch. Additional features include a rock maple neck set into an arched mahogany body, Grover tuning machines, and a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge, which greatly enhances the instrument's natural sustain, and ensures rock-solid intonation and sonic clarity.

The appearance of these Gloss Black beauties is further enhanced by Black Chrome hardware, black pearl position markers, and Schecter's new, sleek, 'ultra-access' neck joint, which provides extreme ease of access to the upper frets. Many of Schecter's most popular body styles are available in this collection, including the C-1, 006, S-1, and PT. And, as Schecter guitars are a favorite among many of today's drop-tuned guitarists, the C-1 EX (tuned B-E-A-D-F#-B) and redesigned C-7 (7-string) can fill the bill. Both instruments feature a 26 1/2" extended-scale neck, along with all of the features of the standard-tuned C-1, making them lethal stage and studio instruments for today's modern hard rock bands. As with all Schecter Diamond Series guitars and basses, the new "BlackJack Collection" will be backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Most "BlackJack" models are available now for immediate delivery.

MSRP for all "BlackJack" models is $799.00 (C-7 is $849.00). Left-handed versions of all BlackJack models will also be available (add $50.00 to retail price)
