This guitar combines classic design with modern enhancements, making it a standout choice for rock and metal enthusiasts.

Once you crank up your amp, the dual Schecter USA Apocalypse VI humbuckers unleash a fierce, harmonic-laden sound that's perfect for high-gain riffs and searing solos.

The V-1's playability is second to none, thanks to its sleek Thin "C" neck profile and compound-radius ebony fingerboard, which makes navigating the 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets a breeze.

Equipped with a Floyd Rose 1500 bridge, the guitar ensures rock-solid tuning stability and sustain, even during the most aggressive whammy bar antics. Schecter locking tuners and a Graph Tech BlackTusq nut further solidify this guitar’s ability to stay in tune, no matter how hard you play.
