Schecter Synyster Custom

Avg price: $1,198.71

In the official music video for Doomsday Party by DragonForce, Sam Totman can first be seen holding a Schecter Synyster Custom at 0:53. He is later shown playing the guitar multiple times throughout the video, including during the dual guitar solo with Herman Li beginning at 3:02.

The guitar can be identified specifically as the Synyster Custom rather than the Schecter Synyster Custom S. The instrument in the video features dual humbucker pickups, consistent with Synyster Gates signature Seymour Duncan Invader SH-8SG pickups (discontinued around 2017), rather than the Sustainiac neck pickup found on the Custom S model.

Additionally, the guitar clearly has a set neck joint rather than the bolt-on neck used on the Synyster Standard, which can be observed by pausing the video at 3:25. At 0:53, the truss rod cover also shows the text “SYNYSTER CUSTOM”, further confirming the model.
