Schecter Synyster Standard Plus Electric Guitar - Trans Deep Red
At Guitar Paradise we have a great range of Schecter electric guitars, available both instore and online through our webstore!
Featuring upgraded adornments and an undeniably aggressive attitude, the Schecter Synyster Standard Plus provides you with a more refined spin on Syn’s angular axe. This high-performance electric guitar begins with a lightweight mahogany body, capped off with a quilted maple veneer that’s sure to draw eyes onstage. As befitting a musician of Syn’s virtuosic stature, the Synyster Standard Plus’s Ultra Thin C 3-piece mahogany neck, 16-inch-radius ebony fingerboard, and 24 jumbo frets form a fierce foundation for all manner of 6-string technicality. What about the tone? A pair of Syn’s signature pickups dish out a fire-breathing arrangement of humbucking sounds ready to burn it all down courtesy of their ceramic 8 magnets and a screaming high-output wind. You also get Grover tuners and a Floyd Rose Special with a Hot Rod Locking system that unleashes decked dive bombs and piercing squeals with rock-solid stability. Crowned with Avenged Sevenfold’s iconic “Deathbat” design inlaid into the fingerboard, the Schecter Synyster Standard Plus is your own little piece of 6-string heaven.
Schecter Synyster Gates signature humbuckers
You'll be hard-pressed to beat the sustain and attack you'll get out of this guitar's high-output Schecter Synyster Gates signature humbucking pickups. This high-output pickup design features ceramic-8 magnets for higher output, while retaining plenty of upper-harmonic cut. Synyster Gates has been quoted as saying, "One day I plugged in and realized I was playing through the greatest pickups I had ever heard or felt in my life." Not a bad endorsement. So, if you're looking to get that same tight, aggressive, and pulverizing sound out of your playing, make sure you get what Gates himself uses.
Genuine Floyd Rose Special bridge
Sweetwater knows that players who prefer the heavier side of music demand absolute performance from their guitars. Luckily, Schecter loaded the Synyster Gates Standard Plus with a Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge. A remake of the original Floyd Rose blade tremolo, this incredible bridge lets you dive and pull up to the extreme without ever worrying about tuning accuracy. You'll get both the rock-solid reliability and the tight response you need when you strap on the Synyster Gates Standard Plus.
Hail to a King of modern metal guitar
Synyster Gates’s blend of fleet-fingered technique and vocal-like phrasing has influenced countless guitarists over Avenged Sevenfold’s quarter-century run. Whether ripping dual-guitar harmonies alongside Zacky Vengeance or shredding out lightning-fast solos, his signature sound is one of the most immediately recognizable in the world of metal — modern or otherwise. Since 2005, Syn has proudly endorsed Schecter guitars as his instrument of choice, with this Schecter Synyster Standard Plus representing a more premium take on his time-honored signature axe.
