Star-forged Sonics and Interstellar Expression
Get ready to launch your sound to the stratosphere with the Schecter Stargazer 12, an interstellar instrument engineered for intergalactic 12-string performance, blending time-tested aesthetics with cutting-edge craftsmanship. This axe’s eye-catching aesthetics are paralleled by its powerful array of latent tone-crafting possibilities, armed with Schecter USA pickups that bring its tonewood triumvirate — mahogany, maple, and ebony — to life. Between the Stargazer 12’s sculpted cutaways and thin C-shape neck, Sweetwater’s gigging guitarists deliver a deluge of rocket-powered performances, night after night, with all the speed and comfort they need to extract the full force of its 22-fret spread. Are you ready for lift-off?
A triple-threat of tone crafting
Schecter’s luthiers pulled no punches in outfitting this Stargazer 12 with a formidable foundation to suit its expanded sonic range. Its mahogany body serves as this axe’s cornerstone, anchoring your tones in a harmonic-rich and well-balanced spread of blossoming overtones, tight mids, and plenty of headroom that gives your sound plenty of space to breathe. With its maple neck, warmth and brightness are imparted throughout the spectrum, with terrific note separation that keeps chords, leads, licks, and solos impeccably voiced. An ebony fretboard completes the tonewood triad, offering crystalline clarity and bell-like sustain, supporting all manners of compositional possibilities in every register.
Crafted by Schecter for aural excellence
To bring the Stargazer 12’s formidable foundations to life, Schecter built a voltaic suite of sonic sculpting capabilities. Its dyad of howling humbuckers comprises Schecter USA SuperRock Vintage pickups, providing both the neck- and bridge-mounted positions with electrifying Alnico V power. Each passive pickup features a dedicated volume control, while its tone knob is endowed with a push-pull coil split. Supplement the latter with the guitar’s 3-way toggle, and near-endless sonic tailoring is always on tap, right at the source.
Engineered for electrifying performances
This set-neck 12-string includes meticulously sculpted cutaways, body beveling, and neck heel, providing unfettered access to all 22 Jumbo frets that sprawl its 25.5-inch scale. Its 3-piece neck maximizes the guitar’s dimensional stability, amplifying its resistance to twisting or warping, in addition to being carved to a lightning-fast thin C-shaped neck that blends speed and comfort to support virtually any play style. Finally, a Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, a TonePros locking bridge, and a set of TonePros M series tuners keep your sound locked in and buzz-free as you make your way across the fingerboard’s 14-inch radius.
