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.

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!

Amazing guitar

This guitar was a graduation present from my parents that I picked out. It takes a while to set up to your playing preference but when you get it done, it's amazing. I've been playing for years now and nothing plays as good as this one. The tone and quality of the guitar are amazing.
Rated 5/5

Nice guitar!

This is a solid, versatile guitar! The neck is thin-ish, but not overly so. The finish on the neck is "satin" and not overly thick. The pickups sound great clean and having the coil tap makes this guitar very versatile. With some grit applied, the pickups take on an aggressive but still articulate character that sits well in the mix with a full band. The tremolo is functional and once setup properly stays in tune even with heavy use. The guitar is very appealing visually and I found no flaws whatsoever in the finish.

This guitar serves as a backup during gigs due to its versatility in sounds/tone. Overall I feel it was a good deal price wise. I appreciate the guitar gallery at Sweetwater, especially knowing the weight and look of the front of the guitar. The guitar arrived playable, but I did perform a bit of the usual setup expected on a new guitar (truss rod/action/intonation).
Music background: Years of bad playing habits practiced to perfection.
Rated 4/5

Absolutely killer guitar!

The finish is even better looking than it is online. The guitar is a good weight and the tone and sustain is perfect. I would have given it a perfect score but it wasn't perfect out of the box. I did my own setup on the Floyd Rose and next, along with the bridge saddles and intonation, even after paying for Sweetwater setup. It just wasn't great. And, then I went to play a gig on New Years 2021 and the bridge pickup had nothing. No sound, nothing. I got it checked out and the pickup died, which is very rare. I put a DiMarzio Super Distortion in the bridge and played it at a gig last weekend and it was perfect. I love Schecter guitars and this one is my second one.

Rated 3/5

From ; Robert in Seattle......

WOW, no one has written any review for this {"Battle Axe"} ??? For the price alone, it's worth the Looks! Playability! WOW; what a beautiful GUITAR....

I wrenched on it as soon as I signed for it. Took it into the JAM room, played on practice Amps, then I fired it up with my pedals & Katana 100w.and drove the apartment complex {"Crazy"}, but they love it and asked (what the HELL are you playing and on on what?} I waited for almost a year for this guitar to be restocked, Sweetwater did me justice! Price wise and two day shipping. I got to select which one I wanted, of course the heaviest one for sound/tone. Then I played as the set up was 55 point from seller and didn't really need a whole lot! With the split coils; I have a Telecaster/Stratocaster..... This Guitar amazes me, and I've been playing for 48 years!!!! Nice to have in my collection, Thank-You again Sweetwater. Very much appreciated guitar, services, and ALL else I've purchased from your company.
Music background: Stringed instruments since elementary school.
