Overview

Innovative tone and electrifying performance with infinite sustain.

The Schecter E-1 FR-S Electro-Resin electric guitar pushes sonic boundaries with cutting-edge technology and a striking modern design. Combining a mahogany body with a flamed maple electro-resin top, this guitar delivers a balanced blend of warmth, clarity and sustain. The pale moon ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, ultraresponsive playing surface, while the thin C mahogany neck ensures effortless speed and comfort. Designed for guitarists who demand precision and power, the E-1 FR-S offers a bold visual aesthetic paired with unparalleled playability. At the core of this model's innovation is the Sustainiac System, which allows for infinite sustain and controlled feedback, making it a game changer for lead players and ambient soundscapes. Coupled with a Seymour Duncan '78 bridge pickup, this guitar delivers powerful, articulate tones that cut through any mix. The Floyd Rose 1500 locking tremolo system provides superior tuning stability and expressive dive-bombing capabilities, making the E-1 FR-S a powerhouse for technical and expressive playing styles.

Electro-Resin Top for Enhanced Aesthetics and Tonality

The E-1 FR-S features a flamed maple electro-resin top, which not only enhances the guitar's visual appeal but also contributes to a bright, articulate sound with increased sustain. The mahogany body adds warmth and depth, balancing out the sharper attack of the maple top. Finished in gloss natural with black resin accents, this guitar's design captures both elegance and a futuristic edge.

Sustainiac System for Infinite Sustain

The inclusion of the Sustainiac System sets this guitar apart, giving players access to infinite sustain for lead work and atmospheric textures. This system transforms the neck pickup into an active sustain generator, allowing notes to ring indefinitely. Two mini switches provide control over the sustain mode, making it easy to switch between standard playing and expressive, endless sustain for solos and ambient soundscapes.

Seymour Duncan and Floyd Rose for Ultimate Expression

The Seymour Duncan '78 bridge pickup offers vintage-inspired tones with a modern edge, delivering rich harmonics and powerful midrange punch. When paired with the Floyd Rose 1500 locking tremolo system, players can explore extreme pitch bends and smooth vibrato while maintaining rock-solid tuning stability. Whether executing dive bombs or intricate tremolo phrasing, this setup ensures reliability and precision.

Built for Players Who Demand Performance

The Schecter E-1 FR-S Electro-Resin is designed for guitarists who push their sound to new heights. With its fast 25.5" scale length, compound-radius fretboard and 24 jumbo frets, it provides effortless playability across all registers. The TonePros M-Series tuners and Floyd Rose locking nut further enhance tuning stability, ensuring that the guitar performs flawlessly in any setting. Pair it with the Schecter SGR-E1 premium wooden case (sold separately) for ultimate protection and portability.
