Wow, that's an awesome price considering the specs. This guitar is really great! I'd say you test it A/B with other models if you can.

You can't go wrong with the high end model of Schester.

Some cons about those pickups and electronics. Even the higher-quality schecters I played, while not that many in number, all had really weak sounding pickups when coil tapped. Active and passive electronics alike, lost a TON of signal when tapped.
Another con, you say you like rock so those JB/Jazz pickups will be fine. You also say you like metal and I don't think those have such a good reputation for metal. Now I have two parkers with those same JB/Jazz pickups and the coil tapping works great. There might be a loss of signal but nothing like the dropout that I heard in the schecters I tried at the music stores. As for metal tones, I'm so inexperienced with that style of music that I can't be sure that my idea of a metal tone that works in those pickups is really good enough for a true connosieur. I'd wait for more feedback from other GMC folks on that topic. I'm pretty sure I've heard the phrase "you won't get metal tones with those" -------------------- ::jafomatic

I would go for a Gibson Les Paul Studio instead. Imho the best guitar in it's price league! that's a very good option too, here is the cheapest gibson vs top of the line schecter, i think i would go with the gibson, but JUST because i love the look of the lp's, maybe the schecter is a better guitar. -------------------- Check my Instructor Profile Rockers!

I´ve never played a Gibson... i played with an Epiphone Les Paul Standard and i dont like the neck too much, another thing i didnt like of that Epi was the way the neck is set in... I couldnt access the highest frets with comfortability. I guess a Gibson plays differen. Anyway there are other factors (money) that makes me choose this guitar: The guy whos selling the C-1 is going to take my actual guitar and my eq pedal... so i will give him only u$s 513 cash Then I would definitely get this guitar as its a classic and specs are great! It will play and sound well for sure... -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net
