A Floyd Rose-loaded Delight Built for Speed

If you've been searching for a show-ready shred machine that plays right, sounds great, and doesn't break the bank, the Floyd Rose-equipped Schecter Omen Extreme-6 FR checks all the right boxes. Its thin "C" maple neck with flat-radius rosewood fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets lay the foundation for everything from fast runs to finger-tapping exploits. Its joined by a stunning quilt maple-topped mahogany body with a deep gloss finish and multi-ply crème binding, giving this axe tons of presence under stage lights. Sonically, the Omen Extreme-6 FR's capable Diamond Plus humbuckers with push-pull coil splits provide you with six pickup sounds for claiming your space in a mix. This FR model of the Omen Extreme-6 features a string-through-body Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo system that'll have you (and your guitar) squealing with delight. On the hardware side, you also get matching black chrome knobs and tuners to help you look and sound your best in any performance setting. If you're looking for a springboard into technical and aggressive styles of playing, Sweetwater guitar players recommend the Omen Extreme-6 FR.

Maple-topped mahogany body

A tried-and-true body pairing of figured maple on rich mahogany gives the Schecter Omen Extreme-6 FR its premium visuals and tonal core. Plus, with its crème multi-ply binding that extends from the body all the way up the neck into the headstock, this is a guitar with a look that's unmatched by its peers.

Shred-supporting neck, frets, and fingerboard

Neck feel is where the rubber meets the road for many guitarists. We're pleased to report that the Schecter Omen Extreme-6 FR is spec'd to support technical styles of playing. From heel to headstock, its thin "C" maple neck profile feels right in the hand. And whether you're sweep picking or alternate picking those arpeggios, its 14-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets go a long way in preventing buzzes, fret outs, and hand cramps.

Coil-split Diamond Plus pickups

From brutalizing crunch to crystalline cleans, the Omen Extreme-6 FR has you covered. Its Diamond Plus humbucking pickups have tone and flexibility to go with the distance with you, stage to studio. Coil splitting is activated by a simple push-pull mechanism on the tone pot. Together with its 3-way selector, the Omen Extreme-6 FR offers you a total of six distinct pickup combinations for interacting with your music — from fusion to blues, and from rock to metal.

Genuine Floyd Rose Special tailpiece

Schecter didn't give the Omen Extreme-6 FR just any old tremolo, they went for the real deal: a Floyd Rose Special. The Floyd Rose Special is an authentic Floyd Rose design, which gives you the same design as an original vintage Floyd Rose model, plus the advantage of lightweight zinc alloy components. Thanks to its double-locking design, you can dive-bomb, whammy, and flutter all night with this trem.

Black chrome hardware

The Omen Extreme-6 FR comes blacked out head to toe in luxurious black chrome hardware for added player appeal. Looking for a guitar that makes an entrance? You'll want to check out the Schecter Omen Extreme-6 FR.

Reviews

Schecter 6 FR Extreme
Nothing bad to write about this guitar. High end looks, nice pickups, robust neck, push pull splitting, and my daily player against my USA LPs and strats. Low budget shredder that I'd play in any situation. Schecter has some winners in their lineup and owned over 8, and this one is in my top 3. I regret selling my Artist C1 but this one is killer. If you don't like Tremelo, get the hard tail and it's cheaper, but the FR is super stable if you know how to adjust it when it knocks out of adjust on the bridge. Easy.

Conecerning the locknut being too high. I wanted to clarify that I never gave sweetwater the chance to make it right which I'm 100% confident they would have done so.


Also, when they sold me the guitar, they took a $ dollars off the price. So I only paid $ plus tax.


The five stars is for customer service.


The guitar is playing much better now since I lowered the locknut and got it setup.

SOOOOOOOOO GOOD
I got this recently and stop playing it. I own a lot of guitars and by far my favorite.
Locking nut too high
I bought a new guitar hoping to get something better than the junk one I got on facebook. I get guitars need some basic setup but the nut was so high I had to take a router and plain the bed down to lower the nut. It feels much better now.

If you buy one of these, check the locknut hieght.
