Default Review: Schecter C-1 Exotic - 12-29-2007, 01:16 AM

Wow… Schecter C-model line of guitars

The C-1 Exotic Star are sweet and if the photos are any indication it looks like it’s strangely beautiful instrument.

The Exotic Star apparently features a highly quilted maple top over an arched mahogany body, and is available in three different hand-tinted gloss finishes, Snow Leppard, Lava Red, and Cayman Blue

Other features include a 3-piece mahogany neck set-in, 25.5“ scale length, bound ebony fretboard with ‘nautical star’ inlay at the 12 fret, Schecter’s ultra-access neck joint, a pair of SuperRock-2 Humbucker pickups with finish-matched wooden bobbins, grover tuners, and a TonePros tune-o-matic bridge with string-thru-body tail.

The Schecter C-1 Exotic Star is listed at major retail outlets, and carries a suggested retail price of $949, but looks like the price is in the $650-700 range.

That's too much flash in my opinion.

Thats a sweet guitar, i think with solid black humbuckers, like the EMG 81 style would sharpend up the look alot, breakup the pattern a bit

My buddy just bought the Shecter C-1 Elite solid black with mother of pearl binding. beautiful all chrome hardwaye, playes nice, really low profile.

I'm a fan of that binding. I really think that sets those guitars apart from other styles. Thanks for sharing

I'm really attracted to the binding around this guitar. I think they look sexxy and sassy at the time.
