The Nick Johnston Traditional HSS delivers immediate playability through its comfortable wenge neck with Nick Johnston's signature "C" profile and responsive feel across all registers. This 10th anniversary model balances refined construction with serious working credentials, handling both high-gain aggression and articulate clean tones with equal authority. The striking Atomic Violet gloss finish makes a visual statement without compromising the guitar's playability.
Playability & Neck ConstructionThe wenge neck with Nick Johnston "C" profile (20.32mm at the 1st fret, 21.59mm at the 12th fret) combined with a 14" fretboard radius ensures comfortable access across the entire neck. The ebony fretboard with brass ring inlays features 22 jumbo stainless steel frets on a 25.5" scale, while the Graph Tech Tusq XL nut and 2-way adjustable truss rod with spoke wheel at the neck heel maintain long-term stability and intonation reliability.
Tone & ElectronicsThe HSS pickup configuration pairs a Schecter USA Nick Johnston Sub-Atomic humbucker bridge pickup with Sub-Atomic single-coil neck and middle pickups, delivering clarity in the upper register and powerful low-end response. The master volume, master tone with push/pull coil split, and 5-way pickup selector provide extensive tonal flexibility, while the Schecter Nouveau tremolo bridge and Schecter Nouveau locking tuning machines maintain tuning stability during aggressive playing.
