This is one of those guitars that gets under your skin very quickly and will probably make you forget your previous favorites! Schecter did an extremely good job with Damien V. A phrase "words are not enough to describe it" suits this instrument well.

This guitar is fitted with all the features you could possibly wish for, for a playing style that goes with this kind of instrument. Carefully chosen features leave no guitar player's desire unfulfilled, which makes Schecter's Damien V an extremely well featured guitar with which you'll be thoroughly pleased. Highest grades for Damien V's features!

This beauty has virtually no flaws. Schecter surpassed their traditional level of quality and produced an instrument that is built great, and built to last. The finish is amazing and the hardware easily adjustable to fit any kind of action. The neck is superb and smooth while playing. Damien V stays in tune 99% of the time and responds well to various playing styles.

Damien V is a reliable guitar that will go to hell and back with you, and would want to do it again. It's a magnificent instrument that is reliable on stage as it is in studio. It will stand the beating and still would not lose its charm and ability to perform. Schecter did make the instrument that should be considered the most reliable in its class!
