Striking Visuals, Stellar Tone, Endless Playability

Schecter’s Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic HT combines resonant and durable tonewoods with professional-quality electronics to form an axe destined to be a classic S-style electric guitar for the ages. The stunning coloring and wood grain pattern of the Super Shredder’s black limba body and zircote top make this solidbody electric guitar a spotlight-stealing stage delight that will make any front man a tad envious. The gorgeous wenge neck is cut to a Thin “C” profile and is capped with an ebony fingerboard — perfect for blistering single-note runs and fiery solos across all 24 extra-jumbo frets. Schecter USA Sunset Strip and Pasadena humbuckers drive the tone of this heavy hitter, letting you dial up thick, defined ’bucker tone that will melt the back row. A Hipshot Ibby HM bridge — a favorite bridge here at Sweetwater — provides stellar sustain and tuning support, giving you the peace of mind you need when you really dig in.

Exotic wood combo for beautiful resonance and unwavering durability

The Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic HT is a show stopper, but it’s not just about the looks. Black limba is a tonewood that continues to win over legions of players with a brighter, more open sound than its close cousin, mahogany. And then there’s the wenge neck. Though considered an exotic wood, wenge has quickly made its way into the builds of many of today’s most reputable boutique manufacturers thanks to its bell-like sound, tough-as-nails durability, and incredible hand feel. Rounding out this axe is a tried-and-true ebony fingerboard, imbuing this 6-string with the tonewood’s trademark glassy feel and effortless playability.

Scorching-hot pickups and high-quality hardware

A guitar named “Super Shredder” requires some seriously scorching pickups. Thankfully, Schecter’s Sunset Strip and Pasadena pickups more than deliver. The Sunset Strip bridge humbucker is a perfect storm of aggression, output, and sustain that utilizes a ceramic magnet to increase the dynamics and compression for cutting cleanly through mixes. Likened to a cross between a Seymour Duncan JB and ’59, the Pasadena neck humbucker is slightly overwound for additional output and unmistakable PAF-style tone.

Thin “C” neck profile geared for lightning-fast licks

Pick up the Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic HT, and you’ll instantly experience extreme playing comfort from Schecter’s Thin “C” neck carve. This super-slim neck profile provides you with a major speed boost, making this electric guitar an ideal choice for any aggressive playing style. And with the guitar’s double-cut body design, you’ll have no trouble reaching those high frets. Notwithstanding its slender profile, this neck gives you the dependable stability you demand, thanks to its bolt-on construction. Top it with a fast-playing compound-radius fingerboard — complete with awesome offset/reverse circle inlays — and you’re in frettin’ heaven.

Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic HT Features:

  • Black limba body and zircote top that exude warmth, brightness, and an open tone
  • Bolt-on wenge neck that enhances durability and sustain
  • Thin “C” neck carve and silky-smooth ebony fingerboard for effortless, speedy playing
  • Schecter Sunset Strip and Pasadena humbuckers
  • Hipshot Ibby HM bridge for stellar sustain and tuning support

Totally Awesome

Guitar arrived yesterday in perfect condition,
I've always wanted to give Schecter guitars a try and I'm so glad I chose this model as my first.
This guitar is down right stunning and the build quality is top notch , it does have a little weight to it at around 9lb's compared to other super strat styles but this is due to the high quality woods being used on the body & neck, the frets right out of the box were perfectly polished and smooth, the neck is so smooth and comfortable and fits my hand perfectly it's not as thin as the necks on some Charvel / Ibanez shredder style guitars but that's perfect for me some of those necks are to thin in my opinion. one thing the description didn't mention was the side dots on the neck are glow in the dark.
I'm blown away with everything about this guitar,
I haven't plugged it in yet but I can already tell it's gonna be everything it says it is.
If your thinking about getting one DO IT !!!
you won't regret it , you also won't regret buying from SweetWater these guys went out of their way to give me a great deal on this guitar , they also called a few times just to make sure everything was good ( thanks again Jeff W. ) they know what customer service is all about….
Music background: Played off and on for years
