Overview

An affordable entry into the world of eight strings.

The Schecter C-8 Deluxe 8-String electric guitar is here to make it affordable to enter the world of eight string exploration. It features a basswood body with a bolt-on maple neck that is heavily reinforced. The rosewood fingerboard has a flatter, 16" radius with 24 frets and dot inlays to make fingering as easy as possible. Schecter Diamond pickups are designed to handle the extended range of this C-8. A tune-o-matic bridge with string-thru body loading improves sustain while keeping intonation tight.

A case is sold separately.
