There's some absolutely amazing value if you can you're inteded model in great used condition. Id recommend going through schecter themselves.

The problem I have with Schecter is their "Hotrodded" Floyd Rose Specials. Making the 1000 or 1500 series basic stock hardware on all of their mid-range guitars will bring in more fans. The amount of people I know who won't buy a Schecter because of the Specials is just another thing.
