Schecter Van Nuys Traditional

I’m kinda ashamed to say but I’ve been playing guitar so long that I don’t normally get inspired watching other guitarist, mostly cuz they’re just running up and down the same scale.

I wish it was neck-through, but damn that's a nice axe...the first Schecter I've considered buying! Usually their style is a little too adolescent for me... but that axe is a beaut!

You are right.. just like you, I’m finding out more about schecter guitars✌️❤️

[@dpgoguen]

I really appreciate these reviews by Jonathan, because you not only get to hear the instrument on Overdrive and clean, but he takes the time to label the pickup combinations. And, of course, his playing is always inspiring. In terms of this guitar, sounds and looks nice. The Yamaha revstar series has an interesting answer to the volume drop off of coil split pickups. They call it a dry switch. Reverend Guitars have a similar switch, that has an even wider tonal variation than the revstar. Happy Easter! Peace be with you all.

I bought two Van Nuys guitars. Both had microphonic problems in the bridge hum bucker. I liked the single coils enough to go back the second time. I called Schecter and they agreed the bridge was microphonic and said they would send me a new one. They did. Over one hundred dollars to my local luthier later and that pickup was also microphonic. I have more than a few guitar with humbuckers. I can crank them and stand next to my amps without a problem. Not with the Van Nuys. It squeals like a stuck pig and is worthless to play. If you don't play with high gain it's ok. So I'm just warning any who buy it. Be prepared to buy a new (non schecter) hum bucker for the bridge. Everything else works fine. Fit and finish is great not to mention it looks killer.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

That’s really interesting.. because I did not find the pickups on the van Nuys that I’ve reviewed, microphonic at all. Thanks for sharing

[@TheOldFlyguy]

@@JonIsJustTooLoud Hopefully its just me but it happened. I run a Hughes & Kettner 20 & my Mesa Boogie 25 close to where I play. When gained beyond half way the squealing starts. If I play my Vola HH, PRS custom 24, Suhr T, they all do fine. Just the schecter and only in the bridge. I'm going to get a SD in the bridge. Hopefully that does it. It's a shame because I like everything else about the guitar. The Tech at Schecter sent a new pickup that did the same thing. He wasn't very helpful or seemed to care as much as you would think either. I love the build and look of schecters but not in love with their pickups.

I just played one today at my local Guitar Center. I was bending the holy s*** out of them, the guitar sounds🎶 killer🔥.

The array of sounds on the clean Channel, just tweaking with the tone controls, was amazing, very good response to touch and pick attack.

Jonathan, I'm looking for a stratish guitar and this is one I'll want to consider. It probably sounds stupid, but a major thing I want a Strat-style guitar for is the "quack" in positions 2 and 4. In your video, I can''t hear this effect. When you looked at G&L S-500 or even Comanche there was a quite notable quack. Is there a difference in how you played? Or does this guitar simply not have that particular sound? Thanks!

They both have roasted maple necks, tusq nuts, locking tuners, vintage 2-pt trem, 5-way switching with push/pull coil split for the humbucker. Hmm. About the same price, too. I think I'm leaning toward the NJ just for the traditional look and more color options. And even though they are import pickups, I think they sound pretty good. Hard time choosing between the white with ebony board or the black with roasted maple board :) I know you did mods to yours, so I'll probably end up doing the same once I get mine...put a Dimarzio AT-1 in the bridge, Super Vee Bladerunner trem, and Hipshot staggered locking tuners.

Great playing, are you a little guy and is there a guitar that you do not like to playing.

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

I dont understand your question ✌💚

[@jessebarrera159]

I am a small man at 5’4”, I noticed that you have no problem with reaching for note and chords, is there a type of guitar brand or style that you just don’t enjoy playing?

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

@@jessebarrera159 Ok Jesse...my height is 5'9" And least favorite? There are no particular Brands or models..I just don't like to play on a poorly setup guitar.

So your saying it don’t stay in tune because the nut ain’t right

[@JonIsJustTooLoud]

Most guitars with trem system will always have problems with tuning.. big or small. It’s just the way i play.. of this guitar is mine, I will fix the nut by sanding of the sides of certain strings.. a simple fix
