FR is definitely a must have guitar! Schecter made another great fine-tuned and thought-out instrument. If you have doubts, find a way to try FR and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how gorgeous this instrument really is. Schecter did a remarkably well job here.

Schecter has put a lot of time and effort into choosing the right features for FR and tuning them right, and that just made a lot of musicians happy, causing them to award this instrument with the highest grades. Features of FR are brilliant and Schecter should be proud of themselves for producing such a beautiful instrument with which you will also be happy, whether you decide to go for it.

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. FR stays in tune 99% of the time and responds well to various playing styles.

FR 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!
