The Nick Johnston Traditional HSS delivers versatile pickup combinations designed around Johnston's playing specifications, balancing thick driven tones with articulate cleans and crystalline textures. Built on a lightweight alder body with a thin "C"-shaped neck, this guitar prioritizes ergonomic comfort and extended playability without compromising structural rigidity. B stock cosmetic blemishes are visible only under close inspection, while the instrument plays and sounds identical to new examples.
Tone & ElectronicsThe HSS pickup configuration pairs a Schecter Diamond '78 humbucker at the bridge with two Schecter Diamond Nick Johnston single coils in the middle and neck positions. A push-pull tone control enables coil splitting on the humbucker, while the 5-way lever switch provides intuitive access to all pickup combinations alongside a dedicated volume control.
Playability & ConstructionThe thin "C" neck measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th, accommodating extended sessions without sacrificing rigidity. A 25.5" scale with 22 X-Jumbo frets on a 14" radius roasted maple fretboard supports both bending and chording, while Schecter locking tuners and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut ensure tuning stability across the neck.
