Schecter Omen-8 2012 Left Handed Review

Schecter-s Omen Series has received, among all other reinforcements, a left handed version of it`s most extreme model, an Omen-8 2012 Left Handed model. From now on left handed metal guitarists with a tight budget and desire to play Meshuggah and other extreme metal band`s songs can be relieved, because here is mighty Omen-8 in lefty variant. It comes with a solid, double cutaway body made of basswood. It also has a carved bound top. Currently, the black gloss color option is available, with more expected soon. the bridge is the same as on right-handed version, a Schecter CTM-8 with eight saddles, black chrome plating and string-through-body construction. The pickup combo is one and only extended range version of Schecter Diamond Plus passive humbuckers. As part of the budget calculations, coil splitting function of these pickups has been omitted for Omen series. The controls are simple, effective and comprised of master volume, master tone and three-way toggle pickup switch. The neck is, as the Series dress code demands, made of maple with a bolt-on joint and comfortable contour. Rosewood fingerboard has series standard of 24 extra jumbo frets and a set of semi-gothic pearloid inlays. The MSRP for Omen-8 2012 Left Handed model is set at $619.
