Omen Extreme-6 Electric Guitar - Black Cherry

The guitar arrived with a static pickup switch. I contacted Customer Service at Schecter and they recommended a cleaner and if that didn't solve the problem, they would send a new switch. The cleaner fixed the problem. The craftsmanship is good, some frets are a bit unfinished but this is expected for this price, at least so they say. I got a two humbucker guitar to replace a BC Rich. Even though this guitar is not the metal vibe, the humbuckers sure purr like a pussy cat. It feels good to play it with the gain and volume all the way up. The guitar sounds good for blues, rock, heavy metal, jazz, it has nice tones, but it definitively likes to play blues. I like to play heavy stuff, but I somewhat always end up playing blues licks. With that said, I plan on getting a strictly metal guitar because this one doesn't even want to be tuned down to E flat or D. Other than the resolved issue with the switch and the frets, this guitar is ready to play out of the box.

How can they make these things this good for the price? I got the burst finish without the floyd rose FWIW. The instrument is absolutely stunning, not a single flaw on it. The neck is straight and the frets are dressed off on the ends, very nice feeling to play. I like the tuners, they remind me of the Grovers I have on some of my other guitars. This thing came pre set-up and other than the action being slightly lower than I like it is just about perfect. The pickups are nice, have a nice humbucker breakup that cleans up when the volume is rolled off. Overall I have to say I am very pleased with this purchase.

I love playing this guitar. + low action + fatty frets + tuners feel great + coil split is neat, but sounds a little flat when compared with my strat. I find myself almost exclusively using the humbuckers, which have a bass heavy tone and handle distortion extremely well - volume knob order is opposite of the pickup selector order - output jack was loose - neck required a lot truss rod adjustment before finding a sweet spot where the low E string wasn't buzzing on frets 1-2 or 6-9. I'll need to get it set up by a luthier someday, but this took a bit of trial and error to resolve.

Having never seen a Schecter guitar before, I was more than surprised with the quality of this one. The neck is second to none that I've played, and that includes an original 1963 Fender Stratocaster I bought that same year. I have medium sized hands and sometimes a guitar neck can be hard to play if it is too small and not well built. This is not the case the the Schecter. Aside from easy on the old fingers, easy to play, this is a great looking guitar as well. It has the smooth lines, rises and falls on the body that make it easy on the eyes. Of course I'd rather have a higher priced instrument. But for the playing I now do I don't need anything but this. Consider this as well - I'm not a young man (surprise!). After years of not playing I bought a Fender Dreadnought, a nice guitar, but one that almost ruined me. Having to lay my arm over the body of the guitar caused my shoulder to pitch forward just a little. That position began to cause my right shoulder to come out of joint. Fortunately, a little physical rehab and it is OK now. I can no longer play big guitars. With this solid body that problem is solved. The only thing that took me a while to get used to is the pick-ups being so close together. That too is just a matter of repositioning my right hand. I can think of nothing I dislike about this guitar. And the price for an instrument such as this is incredibly low.

Absolutely in love with my first Schecter. Been wanting one for years and almost got the C-6 model but held off until I could get the Omen Extreme-6 and I’m so glad I do. The jumbo frets and fast action are awesome, and just a really solid electric guitar all around. Way more versatile than some reviews made me believe. I have tried out all kinds of music on it already and they all sound great. Tremendous value with the Omen Extreme-6, could easily sell for nearly double. Came ready to play out of the box with Ernie Ball strings - my Black Cherry quilted top is gorgeous.

I did in fact receive this unlike the Washburn, and I am in love with this guitar. Isn’t what they have pictured as it’s not rounded on the edges like in the first pic which is honestly a bit of a bummer, but it plays amazing and sounds sick

just got this guitar and i am in love with it. love amazons shipping its reall fast got it 3 days before it was due. love the color it looks way better than how the picture shows it. i got mine with daddario strings but put ernie ball powerslinkys on it. you can really make some sweet metal sounds with this guitar trust me if your on a budget and need a good guitar here you go. the only downside i have about the guitar is when im trying to gallop. the bridge on my other guitar was different and had a fixed tremelo on it kind of like a strat. so its gonna take some time getting used to that but other than that its a great guitar. if your an a7x fan you'll love the guitar. i mite change out the pickups for seymour duncan blackouts when i figure out how to do it. but yes i would recommend this guitar to anyone who wants to play good.

Tenia mas de 30 años sin comprar una guitarra nueva, me decidí por la Shecter despues de haber estudiado muchas opciones, no me arrepiento en lo absoluto, su acabado es de alta gama indudablemente, su calidad es muy buena, mas que buena diría yo, la suavidad de las maderas, el laqueado, el color, las pastillas y su sonido es genial, el tamaño de la guitarra en si, aunque en principio me pareció algo pequeña a la vista, pero al colocarmela se siente genial, vino con un buen empaque doble para evitar daños en su recorrido mientras hacían la entrega, todo sin un solo detalle que debatir. Sin duda Shecter es la marca que usaré para comprar la próxima guitarra que pienso comprar. La recomiendo.

Great guitar all around but especially for the price point. Holds its tuning very well and has amazing sustain. Stock strings can tune as low as C and still sound great. Would definitely recommend it.

Kopf der Gitarre aus der Verpackung geragt ( nicht die Orginalverpackung). Keine Schaumeinlage gerade mal etwas stärkere Folie. Ansonsten OK

Pros- -Versatility, push pull pick-up selector -Great great fretwork, jumbo frets -Good pick-ups, tuners holds tune well -Looks amazing -Build quality, craftsmanship and finishing Cons- -High fret access is not best Personal preference- -Bit heavier than Ibanez -Has nice snappy sound Mine came in immaculate condition with questionable packaging by Amazon. It plays great and had no string buzz. Go for it if you need versatile guitar and shred machine, it's a no nonsense guitar.

Good Guitar. Specially for Heavy Metal

Gitara laf yok .Kargo da gayet iyi.Ama bakımsız geldi keşke bir bakım yapılarak gelinseymiş.Ayrıca tel olarak erny ball takılmış hemen paslanıyor
