6-string Tradition Meets Schecter HSH Power
The Schecter USA Traditional HSH is a tricked-out custom axe primed for the highest level of 6-string performance! This guitar’s comfortable double-cut alder body boasts the best of old and new, packed with a triple-threat of Schecter USA Pasadena pickups in an incredibly versatile HSH configuration. Fleet-fingered players will be sure to appreciate the neck and fingerboard’s ultra-premium eastern hard rock maple construction — an incredibly stable wood that’s taken to the next level with heavy-duty Jescar premium German silver frets in a highly playable 14-inch radius. Finally, the USA Traditional HSH is bookended by a set of Schecter Hipshot staggered locking tuners and a Schecter 2-point tremolo unit to tackle everything from squealing dive bombs to a subtle shimmer with maximum tuning stability. Tradition and innovation all in one, the Schecter USA Traditional HSH is the perfect 6-string for the musician looking to combine the best bits of vintage vibe and modern playability.
A triple-threat of Pasadena punch
From expressive blues to hard-rock Swagger, the Schecter USA Traditional HSH’s trio of USA Pasadena pickups is ready to take on any style you can throw at it! Two Pasadena humbuckers reside in the neck and bridge position, capturing the dynamic feel and organic sound of a traditional humbucker, but with a touch of extra power to excel in high-octane applications. Need to dial down the heat? The Middle-position VS-1 single-coil provides a clarity-packed clean tone, and Sweetwater’s guitarists love how it pairs with the humbuckers via the 5-way switch.
A familiar platform
All guitarists will appreciate the familiar lines, comfortable feel, and expected playability of Schecter's USA Traditional series. The guitar's S-style body is sculpted to hug your body while playing seated or standing. The guitar's maple neck and fingerboard are incredibly stable while imparting sustain to every note. The simplified single-volume, single-tone control layout is effortless to navigate. And you'll have total confidence in the guitar's smooth-acting vintage-style tremolo.
