Hey everyone, I just wanted to share this cool guitar I got a couple months back. We see all kinds of Schecters here, but none like this. This is a Custom Shop USA Made Schecter Stratocaster type guitar. Not sure exactly how old it is, but I believe it's late '90s. Has a beautiful greenish/goldish sparkle finish. The pictures don't do it justice, it's even more beautiful in person. The previous owner liked EVH so he ripped out the tone knobs so be more Eddie like. Maple neck, some kind of Dimarzio pickup in the Bridge and I assume Schecter pickups in the middle and neck. Has a beautiful off white pearloid pickguard. Didn't come with a backplate, so I bought one on Amazon but I might remove it. Wilkinson Bridge, classic style tuners. Plays great and sounds amazing. Very versatile as I can play metal with it and also get beautiful cleans.

Wish I had more info on it, but it's hard since it's a custom. I'm going to have my tech take off the neck and look for any info regarding when it was made.

I realized I had no guitars with single coil pickups, and I never really owned a strat. I was planning to get a Mexican made Fender, but I jumped at the chance when I found this.

I had a Wilkinson on my signature "Brian Haner" model Carvin gold top Les Paul. I ended up taking the back plate off because I had to mess with the trem about once a week. Wonderful guitar, but wish I hadn't put a trem on it.
I still play my Schecter PT Tele all the time. I love Schecter guitars.
This Strat is a beauty!

    They still list your name on the Kiesel (formerly Carvin) artist roster.


    Can you get me a discount on my next build? :)
