JOIN THE DISCORD VIEW THREADLuckily if you select the case option on the store it's free. I understand the hefty price jump. My only thought on this per se, is that there's something about these guitars that are set up so flawlessly, that even setting them up are a luthier's dream. When I had Anubis set up, even with the awful crap Guitar Center did to it, it actually stayed how it was suppose to. I took a screenshot of the specs to compare to the Black Moon oneI found out in the Schecter forum about an hour ago haha. Looks great! Looking things over though it seems like that's a hefty bump on the price tag. I know it isn't marketed towards me and my budget but wow. With everything going on with Covid-19 it's apparent a lot of things are getting more expensive at the moment. Guitars, pc components, some auto components, toilet paper. There are some key specs that seem to be different on the Dark Knight compared to the Black Moon models but how much better/nicer is it that it adds an additional $1000 to the price tag without a case. $1100 with a case. I don't know. I personally can't afford such guitar but if you've got the funds and like the guitar I can see why someone would buy it. I think it's a pretty damn nice guitar.
As far as tech specs and hardware and such, it looks pretty similar to the Black Moon. I think it’s just a different finish. Not sure exactly what “3D satin” means? But I had to have it for the collection! I put my order in, but there was definitely some sticker shock!OK kittens let's fucking be real...
HOW SEXY DOES THIS BEAST LOOK??!!
What are your thoughts?
Black Moon guitar parents, what are your thoughts on the specs compared to the Dark Night?
Let's talk!
I know that satin means the finish is so thin that it doesn't feel sticky, but more natural and smooth and soft.As far as tech specs and hardware and such, it looks pretty similar to the Black Moon.

Oh and let us know how he plays! Congratulations!!As far as tech specs and hardware and such, it looks pretty similar to the Black Moon. I think it’s just a different finish.

Not a bad choice either!Honestly im in the market for a Syn guitar, and if i had the funds to afford the Dark Night i would! Seriously a sexy guitar, probably the slickest one he’s put out yet. As much as id love to have it im going to settle for a black and gold model
HAHAHA!! That's what's up! Congratulations! They say the best hookups happen in a gas station parking lotI missed out on the black moon guitar. Like hell I was missing out on this. I got an email announcing it, and I bought it then and there where I sat in the gas station parking lot
We just need a contest to win one of these beauties...Not a bad choice either!
Oh God!We just need a contest to win one of these beauties...just kidding!...unless?
What's your preferred location of manufacturing? I've seen USA, Japan, Indonesia and Korea.It looks amazing! Nothing to say there but I just checked the specs and its pretty much a Syn Custom with Satin finish. Maybe the finish affects the tone but you would really need to have sharpened ears to hear the difference.
Now the price. In the end, this guitar is korean made and setup at Schecter. So you would get the same thing if you go for the normal custom one. But this is not actually the selling point. What makes this guitar unique is pretty much the exclusivity and I gotta say, its a really amazing piece of equipment that would be a crown jewel in any Syn collector's collection!
Would I buy this? If I had the funds to, absolutely! I love to support Syn and well, new guitar!
But I got to give huge props to Syn for taking such advantage of his brand. What he is doing is unique! Hopefully one day I will get around and get one of those exclusivity!
Or maybe i can hope that its part of the legend's annual care package!?
> kieselDefinitely a sexy guitar, but you can get your own custom made guitar in the USA for less than what this costs. It even says Syn makes no money from this, there's no mark up, which is just a crazy price for a Korean made guitar. Nothing against Schecter, Syn, these guitars, or foreign made guitars, it's just crazy. You can get a custom Aristides, Kiesel, whatever else for this much or less
Im just curious, why Japan over US? Is it a QC thing?What's your preferred location of manufacturing? I've seen USA, Japan, Indonesia and Korea.
I'm very interested in people's preferences! For example I'm partial to ESPs from Japan over the US.

My preferred location of manufacturing is probably Korea from schecter because thats what I use most. I mean I own 4 schecters from Korea and they are all amazing. And now, it also depends for each guitars company because the custom Shop of ESP is in Japan so you know that they're top people are there. And the best guitar they make are from there. Then the ESP Usa is a bit more recent and its not quite the same people. But still, overall, you would great amazing guitars from either shop.What's your preferred location of manufacturing?
