Loaded to Be an Extremely Expressive Instrument

The Schecter Banshee Elite-6 FR S solidbody electric guitar is one supremely expressive instrument. Not only will you get the rock-solid construction and great playability that Schecter Diamond Series guitars are known for, but the sophisticated electronics package and custom Floyd Rose 1500 tremolo open the doors to sound and note manipulation. The Sustainiac pickup at the neck puts an exciting sonic tool right at your fingertips, giving you unending sustain to feed your creativity. Get a Banshee Elite-6 FR S in your hands, hold on tight, and see where it takes you.

Schecter Diamond Series Banshee Elite-6 FR S Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Built for supreme playability and tone
  • Sustainiac pickup holds notes as long as you want
  • Custom Floyd Rose 1500 locking trem designed for Schecter
Built for supreme playability and tone

The Schecter Diamond Series Banshee Elite-6 FR S is, at its core, an extremely high-quality instrument. The Schecter Custom Shop SuperCharger Mach-6 bridge pickup covers your basics, easily jumping between chunky rhythm tones and fluid leads. The 7-piece ultra-thin C-shaped neck and neck-through design deliver rock-solid reliability and sustain, and Schecter loaded the compound-radius fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets for big bends and fast licks. Rounding out the features is a flame maple top that is both gorgeous and adds a bit of snap to your sound. Together, these appointments make Schecter Diamond Series Banshee Elite-6 FR S competitive with guitars costing much more.

Sustainiac pickup holds notes as long as you want

Schecter put a Sustainiac pickup at the neck of the Banshee Elite-6 FR S, which gives you unending sustain and nearly infinite creative possibilities. The Sustainiac gives you the option to have a fundamental note hang on forever or coax harmonically rich feedback from your guitar. For the sonically adventurous, a 3-way switch toggles you between Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic modes giving you access to a huge number of inspired sounds.

Custom Floyd Rose 1500 locking trem designed for Schecter

At Sweetwater, we've seen more than a few trems come through over the years, from Bigsbys to Floyd Roses. Schecter opted for the Floyd Rose 1500 trem. Its custom knife edge, stainless steel construction, and classic Floyd Rose styling ensure you'll stay in tune even with the most vigorous trem work.

Schecter Diamond Series Banshee Elite-6 FR S Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Electric guitar engineered for ultimate expressiveness
  • Sustainiac neck pickup allows for 3 modes of endless sustain
  • Floyd Rose 1500 double-locking trem custom for Schecter
  • USA Custom Shop SuperCharger Mach-6 bridge pickup
  • Stainless steel frets never wear out

The Banshee Elite-6 FR S gives you all the tools you need for complete sonic control.
