About This Guitar

The Schecter C-6 Pro FR represents the pinnacle of modern guitar construction, combining premium materials, innovative engineering, and professional-grade hardware. This instrument is built for players who demand precision, versatility, and reliable performance whether on stage or in the studio.

At the heart of the C-6 Pro's sonic power are custom Schecter Diamond Decimator humbuckers in both neck and bridge positions. These passive pickups deliver aggressive, high-output tone with excellent clarity and note separation even at extreme gain levels. The Decimators provide punchy midrange for cutting through the mix, tight bass response for palm-muted riffing, and crisp highs for articulate leads. The push-pull volume control allows coil-splitting for single-coil-like tones, dramatically expanding your tonal palette from crushing metal to glassy cleans and everything between.

The Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" locking tremolo is a Schecter exclusive design that provides exceptional tuning stability and smooth operation. The double-locking system (locking nut and bridge saddles) keeps the guitar perfectly in tune even during aggressive dive bombs, flutter effects, and pitch manipulation. Combined with Schecter tuners, this system is built to handle anything you can throw at it – from subtle vibrato to extreme whammy abuse. Our free professional setup includes Floyd Rose balancing and spring tension adjustment for optimal performance.

Built with a mahogany body topped with stunning burl maple, the C-6 Pro offers the classic tonewood combination favored by generations of rock guitarists. Mahogany provides warm, thick midrange with excellent sustain, while the burl maple top adds brightness, articulation, and eye-catching visual appeal. The Aqua Burst finish showcases the natural wood grain in a gorgeous blue-green gradient that's sure to turn heads. The radius top contour provides comfortable playing ergonomics.

The bolt-on 3-piece maple neck features dual carbon fiber reinforcement rods running alongside the truss rod. This engineering innovation provides exceptional neck stability, resisting warping and bowing caused by string tension and environmental changes. The carbon fiber allows for the Ultra Thin C profile without sacrificing structural integrity – giving you a fast, comfortable neck that stays straight and playable in any conditions. The exotic wenge fretboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets offers smooth, fast playability with unique grain patterns and natural oils that feel incredible under your fingers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of carbon fiber reinforcement rods?

Carbon fiber reinforcement rods provide exceptional neck stability and strength without adding significant weight. Unlike traditional steel truss rods alone, carbon fiber rods resist warping and bowing caused by string tension, temperature changes, and humidity fluctuations. This creates a more stable playing platform that maintains proper relief and action settings over time. Carbon fiber reinforcement allows for thinner, faster neck profiles (like the C-6 Pro's Ultra Thin C) without sacrificing structural integrity. The result is a neck that stays straight and playable in varying conditions, requires fewer truss rod adjustments, and provides consistent feel and tone. This is particularly beneficial for Floyd Rose-equipped guitars where neck stability is critical for maintaining tuning stability and optimal tremolo performance.

What makes the Diamond Decimator pickups special?

Schecter Diamond Decimator pickups are custom-wound passive humbuckers designed for high-output modern metal and rock. They deliver aggressive, tight distortion with excellent clarity and note separation even at extreme gain levels. The Decimators provide punchy midrange for cutting through the mix, controlled bass response for tight palm-muted riffing, and crisp highs for articulate leads. The C-6 Pro's push-pull volume control allows coil-splitting, giving you single-coil-like tones for added versatility – from crushing metal to glassy cleans and funky rhythms. Unlike active pickups, Decimators require no battery and maintain dynamic response to your playing touch and volume knob adjustments. They're optimized for drop tunings and heavy playing styles while remaining versatile enough for classic rock, blues, and clean tones.

How does the Floyd Rose Special compare to the Original Floyd Rose?

The Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" is a licensed Floyd Rose tremolo manufactured to high-quality standards at a more accessible price point than the Original Floyd Rose. It features the same double-locking design (locking nut and bridge saddles) that provides excellent tuning stability for dive bombs, vibrato, and pitch manipulation. The Special uses hardened steel knife edges and quality materials for smooth operation and long-term reliability. While the Original Floyd Rose uses slightly different alloys and more precise manufacturing tolerances, the Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" on the C-6 Pro delivers professional-grade performance for the vast majority of players. Combined with Schecter tuners and our expert setup, this system maintains rock-solid tuning even with aggressive whammy bar use. Our free professional setup includes Floyd Rose balancing, spring tension adjustment, and intonation for optimal performance.

What's included with the C-6 Pro FR purchase?

Your Schecter C-6 Pro FR includes free professional setup by our experienced technicians (valued at $155), manufacturer warranty, truss rod adjustment tool, and comprehensive setup documentation. The setup includes Floyd Rose balancing with spring tension adjustment, action optimization, intonation calibration, pickup height adjustment for the Diamond Decimator humbuckers, and fret cleaning. We'll ensure your guitar plays perfectly and the Floyd Rose operates smoothly for dive bombs and vibrato. Note: Case (model SGR-1C) sold separately. The included setup guarantees your C-6 Pro is stage-ready with optimal playability, tone, and tuning stability right out of the box.

What music styles is the C-6 Pro FR best for?

The C-6 Pro FR is incredibly versatile thanks to its coil-split capability and Floyd Rose tremolo. It excels in metal, hard rock, progressive rock, and shred styles where the Diamond Decimator pickups deliver crushing high-gain tones and the Floyd Rose allows for dive bombs and extreme pitch manipulation. The coil-split function expands versatility into classic rock, blues, funk, and pop – giving you single-coil-like tones for clean playing and rhythm work. The wenge fretboard and Ultra Thin C neck support fast, technical playing for shred and progressive styles. While optimized for modern high-gain applications, the C-6 Pro's push-pull coil-split makes it suitable for virtually any genre. This is a professional workhorse guitar that can handle whatever you throw at it, from brutal metal to delicate clean passages.
