A 30" scale. EMG power. Unmistakable Hellraiser style.

The Schecter Hellraiser C-VI in Black Cherry gives adventurous players a distinctive platform for exploring deeper registers and expansive arrangements. Its 30" scale length and heavy-gauge Ernie Ball Hellcat VI strings pair with EMG pickups, while a Thin “C” neck and Ultra Access construction keep the playing experience comfortable.

An arched quilted maple top, abalone binding, and Gothic Cross inlays bring the signature Hellraiser look together in a striking six-string instrument.

Room to Explore

The C-VI’s 30" scale is central to its design, complemented by a custom .024–.090 string set. Whether you’re building weighty riffs, layering atmospheric passages, or exploring new chord voicings, it offers a different starting point for your creativity.

A rosewood fretboard with a 14" radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets provides plenty of room to move, while the Thin “C” neck measures 20 mm at the first fret and 22 mm at the twelfth.

EMG Pickups, Flexible Controls

An EMG 81TW bridge pickup and EMG 89R neck pickup give the Hellraiser C-VI its electronic foundation. Two push-pull volume controls, a master tone control, and a three-way pickup switch put sound shaping within easy reach.

A dedicated clip-in 9-volt battery compartment provides convenient access for battery changes.

Detailed Construction, Distinctive Finish

The three-piece mahogany neck features carbon fiber reinforcement rods and joins the mahogany body through set-neck construction with Ultra Access. A TonePros bridge system with custom brass saddles, Schecter locking tuners, and a Graph Tech XL Black TUSQ nut complete the hardware package.

The Black Cherry finish showcases the quilted maple top, framed by abalone and multi-ply binding. Black chrome hardware adds the finishing touch to an instrument with plenty of visual presence.
