Schecter C-1 E/A Classic guitar in Cat's Eye

Schecter C-1 E/A Classic Electric Guitar — Cat's Eye

The C-1 E/A delivers a fast, responsive playing experience built on a thin "C"-shaped mahogany neck with a 25.5" scale and 24 X-Jumbo frets. The arched flamed maple top over a mahogany body produces articulate tone with natural sustain, while the body contours fit comfortably during extended playing sessions. The hybrid electronics—dual Schecter Diamond Plus pickups paired with a Fishman Powerbridge piezo system—give you versatility across magnetic, blended, and acoustic-modeled tones.

Playability & Construction

The thin "C" profile neck measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret, engineered for speed without sacrificing control. Set-neck construction with Ultra Access provides secure intonation and straightforward truss rod adjustment, while the Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut (1.653" width) and mother-of-pearl dot inlays combine playability with refined aesthetics.

Tone & Electronics

The dual-system electronics let you switch between pure magnetic tone, both pickups blended, or piezo-only output via the dedicated 3-way switch. Independent volume and tone controls for each system, plus Grover tuners and a TonePros T1z tailpiece, ensure tuning stability and tonal clarity across every register.
