OK I own so many guitars that it is purely for the quest of finding a better sounding axe. I purchased the Sunset Hellraiser just before they were disco'd one in each color. I cannot tell you how much of a guitar I got but I can tell you it is "THE ONE"! Nothing can beat this! The sounds are amazing and honestly is a COMPLETE SOUND guitar! Everything is top quality and the frets are perfect for anything! No wonder there are none on Ebay! That says it all! I cannot say enough about the quality of craftsmanship and material throughout down to the strings which I just replaced. They really provided those of us whom purchased one or two an absolutely outstanding quality sweet playing thunderous singing machine for an incredible price! THANK YOU Schecter!!! Think of what you want on a guitar and I bet you it is already on this STOCK! WOW! This is absolutely the best guitar period!!! It does not matter the style, tempo, or sound this guitar comes to the show! Yeah it looks like a metal axe and it does that extremely well. Yet this monster can also play rock, blues, jazz and country along with techno so what else is there. Oh it also has many of its own also! AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL! QUALITY THROUGHOUT!
