An Accessible 8-String in Schecter's "C-Series" Spirit
The Schecter C-8 Deluxe follows the line of the "C" models: guitars with a modern design, crafted for technical playing and contemporary tones. Within the range, the "Deluxe" designation emphasizes efficiency and value for money, featuring a clean aesthetic and luthiery choices aimed at versatility in both distortion and tight rhythm playing.
For Which Guitarists and Styles?
This 8-string electric guitar is especially suited for intermediate to advanced guitarists who want to explore low registers, extended tunings, and modern textures. It excels in metal (djent, prog, death), heavy rock, and any context where precision, articulation, and tight palm-muting are sought. It is also suitable for composers/arrangers looking to expand their palette without moving to an instrument that is too complex to set up.
Sound Characteristics
The basswood provides a balanced response, with present mids and consistent dynamics: an excellent foundation for high gain levels, as the spectrum remains clear without becoming harsh. The Schecter Diamond Plus pickups at the neck and bridge offer two complementary approaches: a rounder, singing tone at the neck, and a more direct attack at the bridge for tight rhythms. The Tune-o-matic bridge combined with string-through-body construction promotes solid sustain and a stable tension feel, while the Flat Top with beveled edge enhances forearm comfort and reinforces the instrument's "modern" character.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To get the most out of this 8-string, you can choose a set of 8-string guitar strings (gauges selected according to tuning), a standard strap, and picks suited for precise rhythmic playing (medium to heavy thickness).
