The Schecter C 1 Platinum is comprised of a mahogany body, a maple top, and a three-piece maple neck. As far as the sound that this instrument produces, the Schecter C1 would sound very well in any metal or rock genre, such as 80’s metal, rock, heavy metal, and even thrash metal that all guitar players will love.

Schecter guitars are certainly designed to sound good with some dirt on them, and that makes them great for hard rock and metal, but that certainly doesn’t make them bad for other playing styles.

Even though Schecter is still a relatively new brand compared to other guitar manufacturing companies, it stands out from the others because of the unique shapes, price, and quality of the guitars. They’re incredible metal and hard rock instruments—Schecter has never shied away from its metal roots.

The C-1 E/A has this in spades with its original take on the F-hole. And that doesn’t even mention the weight relief it will offer you. Play it electric or acoustic, have it on your shoulder all night long, and look good doing it!

Another one-of-a-kind guitar in the C-1 series is the E/A. This beauty has a set mahogany neck that’s joined at the head with Schecter’s ultra-access neck joint for reaching higher frets, and a chambered mahogany body that looks stunning in its Cat’s Eye finish.

Throughout the C-1 series, Schecter Guitar Research aims at constructing killer axes for every taste, style and budget. In fact, C-1 guitars are even used by many famous shredders, including Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold and Jeff Loomis of Nevermore.
