Members AzCat Posted May 25, 2006 Members Share Posted May 25, 2006 I'm not really a 7-string player but wanted one to fool around with so I shopped around for a while looking for something interesting. The ICU-7 fit the bill nicely:So, who has the apocalypse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AzCat Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 I believe Schecter's custom shop wound these pups specifically for this guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members stangme01 Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 Well I'm getting in here pretty late but i absolutely LOVE Schecter i haven't found a brand at these prices at any store yet that beats out schecter. Even Dean or Ibanezaren't up to par even though i really like the SZ and Dean hardtails. Anyway i play a C-1 Hellraiser in Black Cherry and its the best C-1 i've owned. I've owned most of the C-1's and love them all. My 2nd pick is the C-1 Blackjack and i will be buying this one again. I've owned a S-1 elite before too, which was pretty cool.

He used to work for Schecter before starting his company, which is why some earlier Schecters look pretty similar to what Tom is making today.

Members stangme01 Posted May 29, 2006 Members Share Posted May 29, 2006 anyone tried a Bill Lawrence L-500XL in a c-1 yet? IF so how do they compare to the stock pickups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AzCat Posted June 4, 2006 Members Share Posted June 4, 2006 The only place I'd go shopping for a Schecter is Drum City Guitarland. Talk to Jason, he'll hook you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members stangme01 Posted June 5, 2006 Members Share Posted June 5, 2006 If you want a mid priced C-1 do yourself a favor, if you like metal get the hellraiser. If you like versatility get the blackjack. I've own all of them and these 2 are the best C-1's by far. MOst of the others don't have X-jumbo frets either.
