A Top-shelf Axe for Serious Musicians

The Schecter C-1 SLS Evil Twin is top-shelf all the way. Its sleek swamp ash body yields a balanced blend of brightness and warmth, combined with mids that "pop." Beyond that, the C-1 SLS Evil Twin is a conduit for the most sought-after humbucker tones, thanks to its Fishman Fluence Modern active pickups. Experience enhanced sustain and playability, courtesy of a Neck-thru design with Ultra Access and a smooth ebony fingerboard. And the C-1 SLS Evil Twin's Hipshot hardtail bridge rewards you with spot-on intonation. Complete with attractive black hardware, the C-1 SLS Evil Twin is primed for top performance.

Rock-solid construction with high-end appointments

When you pick up a C-1 SLS Evil Twin, you'll be amazed by all the details and finishing touches that make this a truly remarkable instrument. Its intricate inlays in its smooth ebony fretboard add a special touch of class. What's more, these details aren't just cosmetic. The C-1 SLS Evil Twin features a Neck-thru design with an Ultra-access heel carve, which gives you easy access to those higher, hard-to-reach frets.

Fishman Fluence Modern pickups give you endless tonal options

Thanks to the C-1 SLS Evil Twin's Fishman Fluence Modern pickups, you'll be able to harness the most sought-after humbucker tones. These pickups provide you with your choice of two unique, selectable voices. Revel in the tight bass, crisp highs, and subtle growl supplied by the Fluence's modern active pickup voice. Or if you're feeling a bit gnarly, these pickups' high-output humbucker voice is tailor-made for distortion. Guitarists at Sweetwater are impressed by the range of sounds that can be milked out of the C-1 SLS Evil Twin.

Hipshot bridge with string-thru-body design provides amazing stability

If you love the stability and ultra-fast response of a hardtail bridge, then you'll feel right at home with this C-1 SLS Evil Twin. Schecter didn't just grab any old bridge — they chose a Hipshot hardtail bridge for solid intonation and great sustain. Combined with its string-thru-body design, this setup gives the C-1 SLS Evil Twin truly epic sustain.

Schecter C-1 SLS Evil Twin Features:

  • Ash body with exceptionally comfortable curves and contours

  • Neck-thru with Ultra Access and smooth ebony fingerboard provide enhanced sustain and playability

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Metal fabrication tool

First Schecter in the stable and I absolutely love it. Crazy as it may seem, I find this to be way superior to my two PRS guitars. The sound ,feel and playability is second to none. My new go to.
Music background: Intermediate player

Such a great guitar

I ordered one of these and got a bit of a lemon. Looks like there were some internal issues with it that the guys couldn't really catch on the inspection unless they played it for a while. So, it was a minor QC issue from Schecter. I called tech support to ask a few questions and 2 days later a replacement brand new guitar was on my door step. Sweet water is fantastic at keeping their customers happy.

The guitar... the replacement was perfect. The fishman pickups really shine in this guitar. It sounds amazing for high gain music. The guitar is a tiny bit small for me but I'm a big guy, it plays and sounds amazing. It feels expensive and solid but it's still light. It stays in tune perfectly. I have nothing bad to say about this. If you are looking for a metal machine that can also do blues and clean goodness look no further. Thanks to Vaughn at sweetwater for helping me decide to buy this.

Best All-Around Guitar Ever!

First of all, kudos to Sweetwater and Alex. Have been buying from Sweetwater for same time now, and no one can touch the quality of their products, the setup on the guitars is second to none, and the staff is the best. This guitar is all I hoped for and more. Every time we rehearse I find new sounds that I actually like. I have had a couple of neck-thru guitars in the past, and this one does not disappoint. Tuning and intonation are spot on, no matter how much I might be moving around. Love the Hip Shot bridge, too. Best part has to be the Fishman pickups and electronics. The split coils on each pickup really give a wide variety of tones, and with the volume control can take you to some pretty good overdrive without going to your pedals. The band wanted to learn "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" and within moments I dialed in a pretty good acoustic guitar sound and found myself actually finger picking it. Action on this guitar is fantastic and I'm sure I'm not fast enough to do it justice, but amazes me how fast I can get up and down the neck. If you've been looking at this guitar, do yourself a favor and buy it, I highly recommend it. This makes my fifth guitar in a row from Sweetwater, and I'm pretty sure it won't be the last.
Music background: Guitar, bass, keyboards. Started guitar lessons a week after the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan.

Excellent Modern Metal Guitar with Great Playability

This is my first Schecter and it quickly made me a firm believer in the brand. The build quality is top notch with great feeling controls, killer looks and fantastic neck and fret feel. Bonus points for the tactile natural wood finish on the back. The sound of the guitar is perfect for modern metal. I lean towards metalcore but any high output gain will sound great from the Fishman pickups. Shoutout to my Sweetwater SE, Daniel Neville, who provided great service.
Rated 5/5

Love this guitar

I've owned my C-1 Evil Twin for about 4 months and the honeymoon period never really ended: I freaking love this guitar. Aesthetically, I dig the black matte finish with the ivory trim and Roman numeral inlays, and the back looks just as good. More importantly, it's hard for me to imagine an easier playing guitar. The satin neck, thinness of the neck and compound radius, and insane upper fret access makes it a dream to play. This is my first guitar with a hipshot bridge and it's very comfortable to rest my hand on when palm muting. The only knock against it is the nut is probably cut slightly low on the low E, but there are quick fixes for that and it's not too expensive to replace the nut if I wanted to.
