Super Strat body? Check. Tasty high gain pickups? Check. Outlandish finishes? Check. Floyd Rose for whammy madness? Check. No tone controls? Check. Sustainiac? Check. This is the perfect 80s hair metal guitar, no finesse, no modesty, just balls out fun.

I am super late on the party but I just purchased this Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder FR S longest name Birch Green guitar recently in Canada. It looks very green on the video and in person, it look more of bright yellow-ish super bright neon lime. It is definitely super fun to play. I've been playing with fun Floyd Rose to do tricks to make super car, airplane and motorcycle noises. This became my main piece of beast now and I recommend it. Quality is fantastic in terms of construction. Sustainiac is so fun that I lost track of time. Love the guitar!

[@ava_3230]

Hey my friend I was wondering if you know the ballpark weight of your instrument? I have a spine problem which prevents me from playing heavier guitars at gigs.

[@davedavem]

I just re-watched one of your old "quest" videos from 2014 - How to Gig for Under £500 - Gigging Guitar Rig Shopping Challenge!!. Micro terror + Blackstar cab + Jackson explorer-style thing (Rob) vs Blackstar combo + squier HSS strat (Lee) + one line from Rabea "Famous last words, Lee."... That could do with being updated! So much more choice on amps in that bracket now!

[@EsKyx1]

[@davedavem]

@@EsKyx1 most probably, but that video was the whole rig for £500, so it'd have to be the mini from the katana range, which doesn't beat off the competition quite so convincingly.

[@Inkfliktedtattoosandpiercings]

I'd love to have either of them. Sound great

[@mattharrison4238]

I own a non-sustainiac version of this guitar in Sea Foam Green and I love it. I originally wanted a Charvel San Dimas, but after playing both guitars, I decided to save $200 and go with the Schecter, both have similar specs, both play and sound great. I would recommend this to anyone in the market for a Floyd equipped Super Strat, it's a killer guitar at a great price.

As someone who has only started playing in january. I love my satin walnut omen 6! And some of these look stunning! Would much rather a hardtail, but these are proper noice

[@rogershore7189]

Charvel did start off as a parts business, up until Wayne Charvel sold the company to Grover Jackson in ‘79. Was shortly after this that Charvel guitars appeared (around 80-81). The seconds grade body that a certain young EVH purchased from the Charvel shop was actually a boogie body, though Charvel was selling bodies made by Schecter at the time. Once Grover took over he tooled up to make his own bodies, which he would then sell on to Mighty Mite and DiMarzio.

[@AbelinoG510]

I got the lambo orange one (thanks Henning and Robert), which is great for the hard rock metally stuff! Feels great. Pickups (reto-actives) are good and like 'm more than the usual active EMG's, just don't try to 'clean up' the sound by turning the volume knob. :P

[@jimcamp2423]

The Birch Green in the Sun Valley Shredder line is probably my first choice of a Schecter for what I'd consider spend,ing it's $ 800 today though. The budget beginner model they have though, that is most like the Squier Affinity series is the C6 Elite in Sunburst Silver.

[@WoodsyGuitars]

I just got the sustainiac version in white for fun shenanigans and I absolute love it. Punches well above its weight, incredible value for money, proudly sits next to my EBMM liii, super impressed with it. The neck is super comfortable, I couldn't gel with a Charvel purchase as found the neck a bit too wide, but these are narrower and super comfy.

[@fritsvanzanten3573]

When I see Rob playing the substaniac, my though was; why not make a small cavity below the strings with a tiny momentary switch, so you can use your pinky without having to move all the way to the switch where it is now. The sunken cavity is to prevent it from touching indeliberately.

the first thing i think of with Schecter is the Dougas Adams quote; “Mark Knopfler has an extraordinary ability to make a Schecter Custom Stratocaster hoot and sing like angels on a Saturday night, exhausted from being good all week and needing a stiff drink.”

[@ze-ce.cra_]

Some nice guitars right there, 24 frets straightforward superstrat, what's not to like

[@thecentralscrutinizerr]

I just ordered the black sustainiac with the Maple neck. I think that guitar is the coolest looking one. The only thing I don't like about it is the fret markers, so I'm ordering some black "Iron Cross" PET fret markers outlined in silver to put on the neck. That will make it "pop" very nicely. Also adding a chromed Gothic cross in black outlined in chrome to stick onto the body from the auto parts store. It'll look absolutely awesome then.

Hi Captain, what drive pedal was you using, it sounds bledy amazing

[@orphanuprising]

Schecters are my faveys

[@FaizanShakeelKhan]

The only reason i bought it for (sustainiac) is not working :S. It works perfectly on 1st setting (sustain without overtones) and i can feel the vibrations on the neck but as I go from 1st to 2nd and 3rd, the power of sustainiac seems to get weaker, thats why it works somewhat on 2nd setting as well (mostly higher than 12th fret) but hard to make any note work below 12th fret on 3rd setting (octave harmonics). Tried new batteries but the same, what a pity will have to return it now.

[@colintraveller]

I know it's a longshot but i'd like to see you review more guitar's with Kahlers , Super Vee's and Coherent Sound and Light products please ... And when will someone be the first to review a Nik Huber Orca 59 ... How well does it fair against the PRS 549 and a high end Gibby

Here's the one I just ordered. For those looks, that price and as good as the reviews are saying this thing is, I'm waiting for the downside.

[@joecooper1703]

I have an 80s HSS like that flame one Lee is playing at the start (I bought it new). Mine's quilted maple body with a killer bird's eye maple neck. It's an ugly green color but sounds better than anything I've ever played/owned, so I keep it, even though I also hate the Floyd and it weighs a ton. Not sure why these all have third party pickups, though; the overwound coil-tapped/split Schecter pickups from that era were absolutely killer.

[@michaelangeloh.5383]

Oh look, EMG makes more than just the EMG 81 pickup. - What a surprise. - I would totally have known this had I only listened to everybody on the internet...

[@somebodyelseuk]

Schecter made Mark Knopfler and Pete Townsend's guitars in the late 70s/early 80s. They did a few for Duran's Andy Taylor as well, including a Hendrix-y thing 25 years before Fender - he was involved in developing Schecter's locking trem. Larry Grayson-Generation Game, by the way.
