Overview

Extended-range power with relentless tuning stability.

The Schecter Sunset-6 ET EX Red Dawn electric guitar is built for guitarists who demand crushing tone, extreme precision and absolute tuning reliability. Designed with a 27" baritone scale length, this extended-range powerhouse delivers tight low-end articulation, making it perfect for lower tunings, such as B-standard. Featuring an EverTune bridge, Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups and an ultrafast Ultra-Thin C neck, the Sunset-6 ET EX Red Dawn is engineered for high-performance players who need consistency, stability and searing tone.

Extended Range for Powerful Low-End

The basswood body provides a balanced tonal foundation, ensuring deep lows and smooth highs. The three-piece maple set neck with an Ultra Access joint allows effortless upper-fret playability, while the ebony fingerboard with offset red circle inlays offers a fast, responsive feel. The 27" scale length extends the range of the instrument, allowing for baritone B-B tuning with tight, controlled lows and crisp attack.

Fishman Fluence Pickups for Cutting-Edge Versatility

Loaded with Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups, the Sunset-6 ET EX Red Dawn delivers aggressive distortion with exceptional clarity. The ceramic bridge pickup provides tight bass response and articulate highs, while the alnico neck pickup delivers smooth, dynamic leads. A push-pull volume control and five-way switch offer multiple Fluence voicings, covering everything from clean and articulate to full-on high-gain saturation.

EverTune Bridge for Unshakable Tuning Stability

The EverTune bridge ensures that every note stays perfectly in tune, even under extreme playing conditions. By maintaining constant string tension, this system prevents tuning drift, making it an essential feature for high-performance recording and live performance. No matter how aggressively you play, the EverTune bridge guarantees spot-on intonation across the entire fretboard.

Built for Performance and Reliability

With Schecter locking tuners, a Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut and 24 X-Jumbo stainless-steel frets, the Sunset-6 ET EX Red Dawn is designed for professional-level performance. The black hardware and gloss black finish with red binding complete its bold, aggressive aesthetic. Whether you're pushing the limits in the studio or tearing up the stage, this guitar delivers uncompromising quality and playability.
