Sure, I've checked out some Schecter guitars in the past, and although those were fantastic guitars, they ranged from 800 to well over a thousand dollars. With the holidays in full force, not everyone has that kind of cash to drop on a guitar. At $399, the Schecter Omen Extreme is a wonderfully playable and totally useful shred guitar. Let's check it out!

See THIS is EXACLTY what im talking about, all the other youtubers would have gotten the schecter THEY wanted and then showed off on a video and mention how "cough" affordable it is. YOU bring us gear an actual WORKING musician can afford, truth is very few of us will ever reach any kind of rock star status, those days are gone for good, but you can STILL make a living playing music, but odds are your not going to be able to afford 8 thousand dollar guitars doing it, even if you could why would you take it to a bar or club??? These are the guitars were looking for, this is the channel to see them and YOU are the man for doing it! Thank you so much young sir, your doing the whole community a major solid.

Woo, more love for Schecter! I own 9 Schecter guitars, from the low, to mid, and high end offerings, and not a single one of them has ever disappointed me. The thing most people don't seem to realize about "cheap" guitars is that they are paying for less labor/attention to detail during production, so the frets and fret edges may not be as leveled/rounded/polished as they would be on an instrument of higher expense, and of course you are obviously paying for cheaper materials. Despite this, the fret work on all of my Schecters has been nothing short of excellent. Awesome video Max, I really enjoy these.

I am honestly, really glad to see that people are slowly becoming less and less skeptical of instruments "made" or "crafted" in China. I am not entirely sure, but I think that these Schecters are still made in Indonesia, if Max didn't specify in the video maybe he could correct me here. But, whether it be from China, or Indonesia, both countries have excelled and improved greatly in their ability to make guitars identical to or very close to the quality of guitars made in Korea. Between all of my Schecter guitars, I own Korean models, Indonesian models, and a bass (Stiletto Custom 5) made in China; and I have no complaints concerning any of them after setting them up. But of course, between all of the price point tiers, things have to be sacrificed to increase their level of affordability; and from what I've noticed, it's usually things like hardware and pickups, and sometimes the way the neck is attached to the body, but I'm noticing more and more that set-neck, set-thru neck, and even neck-thru instruments are becoming way more available in the "affordable" range than they ever were before. What a time to be a guitarist! ;)

Now, I'm looking for a well-built guitar that's easy to pick up and play. Doesn't hurt if it looks cool too. That said, I've been researching easy to play guitars and this one always comes up.

Your video helped me a lot and it was the "final psuh", thankm you soi much! :) The guitar arrived today, in the same color. I have been playing guitar since early last year, using a Harley Benton SC Custom II until now. The difference between the two is significant. To begin with, the Schecter arrived in perfect condition, with no loose parts, uneven surfaces, or aesthetic flaws. It is much more comfortable to play and produces a richer, more detailed sound. It genuinely feels like playing a high-end, expensive guitar.

That omen looks like a Schecter C-1 Elite (which was discontinued in the mid 2000s) except it has an extra volume knob and a bolt on neck as opposed to the C-1 Elite's one volume knob one tone knob and set neck. I bought my C-1 Elite years ago for 300 (although since then I've seen them go for a little as 150). Low action. Holds tune extremely well. Never had to make a truss rod adjustment to it since I've had it. Easy access to upper frets and super easy playability. Over time I lightly sanded the the laquered neck, added Sperzel locking tuners, Bare Knuckle Nailbomb pickups (ceramic in bridge, alnico in neck), replaced the volume and tone knobs with push/pull volume AND tone knobs (volume splits neck, tone splits bridge) and added Dunlop Strap Locks. I absolutely love that guitar. I'll never get rid of it. I'll play it until I wear the extra jumbo frets down. Then I'll replace them with stainless steel extra jumbo frets and keep playing it forever............

I have this guitar, it's a 2017 in red but same quilt top, and a Floyd Rose. Bought it ever did gently used for $350. I was a newb and didn't appreciate the guitar, the tone options, how nice it is. The V fret inlays are just beautiful, and they even have one in the first fret. Even as a newb I don't need an inlay to tell me where fret one is, but when I have all my guitars lined up and the one with the F1 inlay just stands out like a man in a child's world or something. Everything about the guitar is great, it's got 5 layer, (ply?) binding around the body and the headstock, single ply binding around the neck, one push pull control to turn the humbuckers into single coil sound, and mine is again equipped with a Floyd Rose tremolo device. I LOVE my Schecter, hands down, the best guitar I own.

I’ve said this before, I’ve never owned a bad Schecter. I currently have a Demon 6 with the Schecter actives in it. Love it. Their “entry” level budget guitars really are good. I wish 30 years ago I could get an entry level guitar this good. No sharp frets, no dead notes. My only gripe with the string through is I sometimes get a ringing from the strings BEHIND the bridge and the nut as well. Not sure why but all of my Schecters have done this. A gate helps. It’s really noticeable when playing staccato.

I’m a recently new subscriber. Love the budget guitar reviews. I was never able to afford top of the line stuff & had to make do with in my budget most of my musical life. I’ve owned a few gems here & there but never managed to hold on to them. Your reviews are very informative & helpful in deciding what will be my next addition to my guitar collection. A few things that I’m interested in seeing on your channel would be on innovative accessories for example, wireless systems. I’ve had a few in my career. I’ve noticed a few really inexpensive systems on the internet. The kind you just plug in guitar & plug into amp. Cables for speakers & guitar. What are the reliable brands. Seen some really cool looking braided ones online but looks are one thing & reliability is another. Guitar strings. The choices seems endless. I use Ernie Ball Super Slinky’s( 9’s ) because I’ve been using them since I started playing electric guitar. I would venture out of my comfort zone if there was a good starting point. Which brands are good for Floyd Rose bridges and hard tails. Just a few ideas to expand your channel’s informative format. Thanks 🙏 for all that you already have done guitar players around the world 🌎 & keep up the awesome chops!

Really glad you pointed that out, about the tremolo. I'm a lady and I've only owned a few guitars and played intermittently for over twenty years now. I don't know much about guitar hardware, but I know good sound when I hear it. I was about to buy a guitar under $400 with a tremolo, really love the way you can make the guitar whine with it, but good tone is definitely more important to me, and I hate fret buzz! Great video and demo, you're a beast! PS, if anyone reading this has any insight for me, I would be eternally grateful! ✌😁

Hell yeah dude you are the man. I'm going to get this on Monday from a pawn shop working on craigslist for now and I knew right away you'd have a video on here. Found it in about 30 seconds...I bought a schechter today and It doesn't matter much to me...as long as it shreds!

The uk is in a cost of living crisis that has been crippling for my family. Seeing youtubers show off their £3k guitars gets incredibly tedious. This is a fantastic review and is a lot more what we NEED these days. £1000 for a guitar. It might as well be a million. £399 is still a lot of money, but its doable.

Wife got me one of these on father's day last year, I think she got it on sale for $329 on musician's friend. Mine is the ocean blue burst and it plays like a dream. I love the neck, not much effort needed to fret notes and zero fret buzz to boot. The only things I would change are the pickups and the tuners. They aren't bad but I'm spoiled on locking tuners, and a set of Schecter SuperRock pickups would really put this guitar over the top.

Got one of these for $299 on Stupid Deal of the Day. This rig is a TON of guitar for the money.... really love it. I got the ocean blue finish. The coil splitting is a great feature. The only thing I’d change are the tuners, but they’re hard to source in the pewter finish. Did not need a setup.... good to go right out of the box. This is my 2nd Schecter and I’m really impressed.

I've always been impressed by Schecter's quality, including their first price axes. The Omen are great, they play great and the Schecter Diamond + pups are incredibly good for the price. Thanks for this video Max and, please, if you wanna bury another guitar in the sand : not this one ! ;)

I own one. Excellent instrument. Beautiful Blue Ocean finish. Compliments the Dimension I have nicely. Dimension Bass paired with the Omen Guitars gives me the crunch I need. The Diamond Piccups impressed me. She's the only Guitar I own currently the rest are Basses. Best Guitar for Metal at that price imo. Schecter makes 🔥

The guitar is absolutely gorgeous. I bought the standard Omen-6 years back, and my mate had bought one about 20 years back. They are the ultimate budget metal guitar. Tone is fantastic, very playable. The neck pup is weak on the standard series, but the bridge is pretty decent and also sounds great downtuned say to C or C#. If anything happened to it, I'd probably buy the Extreme version, even though it's not a guitar I play often.

Scherters one of the best bang for our buck out there.,I don't know where this one's made but the Korean made ones are built to a standard that would put many American makers in jeopardy.

I own this same guitar in See thru Black, can't be beat for price. Definitely has its own vibe. Shines in D and C# tuning, I've thought about changing pickups, but feel it would take away from originality, and it's unique tone! Love this guitar 🎸💯💥

Phenomenal guitar. I'm a Fender guy. I played this and now I'm a Schecter guy too. Will probably put a Duncan Distortion SH6 in the bridge at some point soon. Addicting guitars.
