Following review text is verbal representation of numerical rating information:

Tempest Custom 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 Tempest Custom and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how gorgeous this instrument really is. Schecter did a remarkably well job here.

Feature-wise this guitar is perfect! There is no need to add or remove anything, and that is quite an achievement by Schecter, considering that it's quite hard to please every musician's desire, in order to grade an instrument such as Tempest Custom with such a high score when it comes to guitar features. That means that Schecter has constructed more or less a guitar with perfect features, so if you decide to buy Tempest Custom you will be more than happy with it.

Schecter's Tempest Custom has built in top quality hardware. Carefully chosen materials tell that this guitar will last you long time, and will not give you any headaches then trying to set it up. It's easy to set up action to whatever level you prefer. Overall, users gave it great marks to Tempest Custom, so you may rest assured that, on the technical side, this guitar will not let you down.

Tempest Custom 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!
