About This Guitar

The Schecter Demon-6 FR-S is built for players who demand infinite sustain, aggressive tone, and extreme versatility. This guitar combines cutting-edge technology with rock-solid construction, delivering sounds impossible to achieve with traditional guitars.

The star of the show is the Sustainiac infinite sustain system occupying the neck position. Unlike feedback-based sustain, the Sustainiac uses electromagnetic fields to vibrate the strings continuously, creating infinite sustain at any volume level. Three modes offer different tonal characteristics: Fundamental (natural sustain), Harmonic (violin-like upper harmonics), and Mix (combination of both). The Sustainiac can be switched on/off via mini switches, and when disengaged functions as a normal neck pickup.

The Schecter Diamond Active humbucker in the bridge position delivers crushing high-output tone with excellent clarity. This active pickup provides tight low-end for palm-muted chugging and crisp highs for cutting leads. Combined with the Sustainiac, you get a massive tonal palette from ambient swells to aggressive metal.

The Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" double locking tremolo provides excellent tuning stability and smooth operation for dive bombs, flutter effects, and pitch bends. The combination of Sustainiac sustain and Floyd Rose whammy manipulation opens up incredible sonic possibilities – sustain a note indefinitely while adding vibrato, pitch bends, and harmonics.

Built with a basswood body featuring carved top contour and aged crème binding, the Demon-6 FR-S offers comfortable playability and balanced resonance. The bolt-on maple neck with Thin C profile provides fast, smooth playing feel across all 24 jumbo frets. Gothic Cross inlays on the rosewood fretboard add distinctive visual flair. The Aged Black Satin finish gives this guitar a menacing, no-nonsense aesthetic perfect for metal and hard rock.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Sustainiac system and how does it work?

The Sustainiac is an electromagnetic sustainer system that creates infinite sustain on any note or chord. Unlike feedback-based sustain, the Sustainiac works at any volume level. It replaces the neck pickup and uses electromagnetic fields to vibrate the strings continuously, allowing notes to sustain indefinitely. The system features three modes controlled by mini switches: Fundamental (natural sustain), Harmonic (adds upper harmonics for violin-like tone), and Mix (combination of both). The Sustainiac requires a 9V battery and can be switched on/off, allowing you to use it as a normal pickup when not engaged. It's perfect for soaring leads, ambient textures, and creating sounds impossible with traditional pickups.

Can I use the Sustainiac and Floyd Rose together?

Absolutely! The Demon-6 FR-S is specifically designed to combine Sustainiac infinite sustain with Floyd Rose tremolo capabilities. You can create sustained notes and chords, then use the Floyd Rose whammy bar to add pitch bends, dive bombs, and vibrato effects while the note continues to sustain. This combination allows for incredibly expressive playing and unique soundscapes – imagine sustaining a note indefinitely while adding harmonics, pitch manipulation, and flutter effects. The Floyd Rose Special "Hot Rod" provides excellent tuning stability, ensuring the Sustainiac system works optimally. Our free professional setup includes both Sustainiac calibration and Floyd Rose balancing.

What's included with the Demon-6 FR-S purchase?

Your Schecter Demon-6 FR-S includes free professional setup by our experienced technicians (valued at $155), manufacturer warranty, truss rod adjustment tool, 9V battery for Sustainiac and active pickup system, and comprehensive setup documentation. The setup includes Floyd Rose balancing, Sustainiac calibration and mode adjustment, action optimization, and intonation. We'll demonstrate how to use the Sustainiac modes and maintain the Floyd Rose system for optimal performance. Case sold separately. The included setup ensures your guitar is perfectly dialed in for immediate playability.

Is the Demon-6 good for beginners?

The Demon-6 FR-S is best suited for intermediate to advanced players. The Sustainiac system and Floyd Rose tremolo offer advanced features that require understanding to use effectively. The Sustainiac has three different modes that need experimentation to master, and the Floyd Rose requires proper technique for string changes and maintenance. Beginners may find these features overwhelming initially. However, if you're a motivated beginner specifically interested in Sustainiac technology and willing to learn the Floyd Rose system, this guitar can grow with your skills. We recommend visiting our Altona store to try it and discuss whether it matches your current level and goals.

Does Angkor Music service Sustainiac systems and Floyd Rose guitars?

Yes! Our technicians have experience with both Sustainiac sustainer systems and Floyd Rose tremolo bridges. We provide Sustainiac calibration, mode adjustment, battery replacement, troubleshooting, and electromagnetic field optimization. For Floyd Rose maintenance, we offer spring balancing, intonation adjustment, restringing with proper locking nut procedures, and complete setups. With 11+ years serving Melbourne musicians, we understand the unique requirements of these advanced systems working together. Whether you need Sustainiac recalibration, Floyd Rose service, or general maintenance, we're here to help. Visit our Altona store or contact us to book service.

What music styles is the Demon-6 FR-S best for?

The Demon-6 FR-S excels in metal, shred, progressive rock, and experimental music. The Sustainiac system is perfect for creating atmospheric intros, sustained lead passages, and ambient soundscapes common in progressive and experimental styles. The active bridge pickup delivers the tight, aggressive tone needed for palm-muted metal riffing and high-gain leads. The Floyd Rose tremolo is ideal for dive bombs and extreme pitch manipulation in shred and metal. While versatile enough for hard rock and heavy blues (the Sustainiac can be disengaged for traditional tones), this guitar is optimized for players who want to push boundaries and explore sounds impossible with traditional guitars.
