Boasting 24 stainless steel frets on an ebony fretboard, a pair of humbucking pickups, and a Floyd Rose vibrato bridge, the Schecter 3057-SHC C-1 FR S Apocalypse is ready to rock.
A swamp ash body offers a musical balance of brightness, warmth, and midrange "pop." An Apocalypse bridge humbucker provides loads of aggressive tone, while the Sustainiac pickup at the neck position allows notes to ring indefinitely. Factor in a fast-playing neck, and the ultra-precise action of a Floyd Rose tailpiece, and you've got a versatile metal machine in the Schecter C-1 FR S Apocalypse.
You just can't beat the abundant sustain you'll get out of your Schecter C-1 FR S Apocalypse's Sustainiac humbucking at the neck position. This unique pickup design features a special sustain circuit that's designed to let notes ring on as long as you'd like. Just kick in the sustain circuit, play a note or chord, and let the electromagnetic feedback carry your sound as long as desired.
Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge/tailpiece for expression
Schecter loaded the C-1 FR S Apocalypse with a Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo bridge. A remake of the original Floyd Rose blade tremolo, this incredible bridge lets you grab on, rock out, and never worry about your tuning stability. The guitarists rely on Floyd Rose tremolos for the rock-solid reliability and tight response we need for precision playing, along with expressive vibrato and dive-bombing capability.
Aggressive, detailed tone from an Apocalypse humbucker
Expect sonic intensity from the Apocalypse humbucker onboard the C-1 FR S Apocalypse. Alnico V magnets deliver a fast, aggressive sound with plenty of richness. The alnicos are flanked by ceramic magnets for top-end presence and articulation. You'll have an explosive tone with plenty of harmonic content, giving you lots of sound-shaping potential when you tweak the tone knobs on your amplifier and pedals.
