Schecter Sullivan King Banshee-6 Floyd Rose Sustainiac Pickup - Obsidian Blood

A Banshee Reimagined for Sullivan King's Universe

This Sullivan King Banshee FRS follows the Banshee lineage, a format appreciated for its ergonomics and "performance" orientation. Schecter offers here a signature interpretation: a radical platform optimized for heavy distortion, effects, and modern techniques. The combination of a through-neck and a Floyd Rose 1500 Series vibrato clearly places this guitar in the category of instruments designed for stage and studio use, without compromising precision.

For Whom and Which Styles?

The Schecter Sullivan King Banshee FRS is mainly aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking fast playability and reliable tuning stability, including intensive tremolo use. It excels in modern metal, metalcore, djent, hard rock, as well as hybrid approaches mixing massive riffs, atmospheres, and sound design. Its Sustainiac pickup also opens the door to sustained textures, controlled harmonics, and "synth-like" guitar layers.

The Sound

The combination of ash (body wings) and maple (3-piece through-neck) delivers a very clear register: a sharp attack, tight lows, and a well-defined high end, ideal for lower tunings and tight rhythms. The Schecter USA Apocalypse humbucker in the bridge position is designed to provide a high output level with excellent articulation while maintaining bite to stand out in a dense mix.

In the neck position, the Sustainiac transforms the instrument into a true sustain generator: notes held infinitely, controlled feedback, and harmonic effects usable at both low and high volumes. Finally, the Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo allows maximum expression (wide vibratos, dive bombs) while securing tuning when the guitar is properly set up.
