She's a Schecter C-1 She Devil. 😈

I'm ridiculously excited. Photos coming soon.

She reminds me of a used Ibanez I seen at the local shop. I believe it was a neck thru body, carved top, Active pickups & Mahogany finish. They wanted $400, I was only willing to give $200 - $250 cause I knew I'd have to replace all the electronics. Did you buy it new/used, how much did it set you back?

Poop

I actually nabbed it off the 'Bay for a very reasonable price (it being a factory 2nd brought the cost down considerably). I'm anxious to hear how the pickups sound. They're the Duncan Designed HB-105 active humbuckers and I've heard pretty good things about them. (I don't buy into that stigma that stock pickups need to be replaced as soon as you get the guitar. Sometimes they do, sometimestimes they don't.)

This is all mahogany, too. It's a set neck but it has the "Ultra Access" heel which is pretty neat. I've been trying out a friend's Ibanez RGT42DX to try to get used to the 25.5" scale and that is a neck-through with the same sort of heel.

UGGHH!!!

I like fairly pointed shapes like z or v, but funny paint jobs or overly pointy headstocks just look ridiculous.

Proper metal guitars;

Don't post those at OSG. You're apparently on thin ice as it is. Posting those will get you banned.

In other news, my Schecter arrived today and it's so kickass that I think my Jaguar will find its way to the auction block. 😲

Why is he on thin ice? Wtf that forum.

I don't actually know. I was lurking there earlier, checking out some of my old posts in the Introductions and I saw that there had been an... incident. 😆

I owe him, though. He plugged my name as the moderator of a Schecter forum (right in the midst of the tension, when threads about me were getting locked). Unfortunately, that was before I became mod at a Fender forum, too. I'm sure that I could have gotten some OSGers to check the place out. 😆
