Description

Step into the world of refined musical craftsmanship with the Schecter USA California, where vintage aesthetics meet modern innovation. This solid body electric guitar is a testament to Schecter's dedication to quality and tone. At its core, the California boasts a semi-hollow Swamp Ash body paired with a solid Maple Cap and Quilted Maple Veneer. This combination delivers a resonant, full-bodied sound that’s equally suited for both crisp cleans and roaring overdrives.

The neck is crafted from stunning Flamed Maple, topped with an Ebony fretboard, offering a silky smooth playing experience across its 22 jumbo stainless steel frets. The Custom C shape profile and a 14" radius make this guitar a joy to play, whether you’re shredding solos or laying down complex chord progressions. The Schecter Nouveau Locking Tuners ensure stability and precision, while the Schecter Nouveau 2-Point Tremolo bridge allows for expressive pitch bends and vibrato effects.

For tonal versatility, the California shines with its Schecter USA Pasadena Plus Trem Gold bridge pickup and Schecter USA MonsterTone neck pickup. The push-pull volume and tone controls, paired with a 5-way lever, provide a wide palette of sounds, perfect for any genre.
