Hard-hitting Electric from Schecter

When you’re looking for a hard-hitting axe that delivers top-notch design, feel, and tone, the Schecter E-1 SLS Elite is a player’s delight. Designed and built by master South Korean luthiers, the E-1 SLS Elite is made from a lightweight swamp ash body with flamed maple top that is resonant and delivers a nice blend of brightness, warmth, and up-front mids that cut through the mix. A pair of Fishman Fluence Modern active pickups kicks out tight bass, crisp highs, and subtle growl that can be dialed in to your liking. The maple/walnut/padauk neck with ebony fingerboard offers incredible playability, response, and feel — ideal for fast leads and heavy power chords. And with a Tune-o-matic bridge, you get stellar sustain that enhances your own unique playing style.

Versatile pickups for great tone

The Fishman Fluence Modern active pickups in the E-1 SLS Elite are a favorite among players in heavy genres, including those here at Sweetwater. The Fluence Modern Ceramic provides you with the choice of two unique, selectable voices via the push-pull on the master volume. The first voice is reminiscent of a modern active pickup — tight bass, crisp highs, and a touch of growl. The second voice is a high-output humbucker tone made for distortion and designed to growl. The Fluence Modern Alnico humbucking pickup’s first voice is reminiscent of a modern active pickup — boosted mids and great articulation and dynamics. The second voice is an exclusive Fluence sound with a clean, crisp, and fluid tone without the mush.

Neck designed for play!

The maple/walnut/padauk neck on the E-1 SLS Elite is cut to an ultra-thin “C” profile with a satin finish for smooth handling and hours of comfortable playing. The ebony fingerboard features 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets that make chords and leads easy on the fingers. And with the ultra-access cutaway, you can reach those extra-high notes when you need them.
