Here for sale we have a Schecter Banshee FR A, a solid electric guitar with a striking Trans Black Burst finish. This Korean made instrument earns the ‘FR A’ in the model name thanks to the Floyd Rose 1000 locking tremolo and active electronics with the EMG 85/81 pickups. The body is made using Alder with a Flamed Maple top and the neck using Maple/Walnut with an Ebony bridge.
The neck has a bolt on design and features an Ultra Thin ‘C’ profile, which as you’d expect given the name, is very slim and makes for a really fast playing instrument. 24 Extra Jumbo frets mean that minimum exertion is required meaning longer playing sessions are made easier. The locking tremolo keeps tuning stable with even the most rigorous term usage.
An Active EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 85 (neck) humbucker provide a really hot output, they sound great when played through a high gain amp, with both screaming leads and chuggy rhythm playing where this guitar is at its most comfortable.
