Overview

Precision, power and unwavering tuning stability.

The Schecter Sunset-6 ET Red Dawn electric guitar is built for players who demand high performance, crushing tone and flawless tuning stability. Designed for metal and progressive musicians, this guitar features an EverTune bridge for consistent intonation, Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups for dynamic versatility and a sleek ultrathin neck for effortless shredding. Whether you're delivering bone-crunching riffs or soaring leads, the Sunset-6 ET Red Dawn ensures every note is precise and powerful.

Premium Construction for Maximum Resonance

The basswood body delivers a balanced tonal foundation, ensuring deep lows and crisp highs. The three-piece maple set neck with an Ultra Access joint provides seamless upper-fret playability, while the ebony fingerboard with offset red circle inlays enhances both aesthetics and performance. The 25.5" scale length ensures a snappy response with optimal tension for aggressive playing styles.

Fishman Fluence Pickups for Modern Versatility

Loaded with Fishman Fluence Modern Open Core pickups, the Sunset-6 ET Red Dawn offers powerful, articulate tones with minimal noise. The ceramic bridge pickup delivers tight, percussive attack and controlled low end, while the alnico neck pickup provides smooth, expressive leads. A push-pull volume control and five-way switch offer multiple voicing options, allowing players to shape their sound with ease.

EverTune Bridge for Perfect Tuning Stability

The EverTune bridge ensures consistent tuning across all playing conditions. By maintaining constant string tension, this system prevents tuning drift, making it an essential tool for studio recording and live performance. Whether you're bending notes, playing aggressively or switching tunings, the EverTune bridge guarantees precise intonation at all times.

Built for Speed and Durability

From its Schecter locking tuners to its Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, every component of the Sunset-6 ET Red Dawn is designed for professional-grade reliability. The 24 X-Jumbo stainless-steel frets provide smooth bends and effortless speed, while the black hardware and gloss black finish with red binding create a bold, aggressive look. Whether in the studio or on stage, this guitar is built to handle anything you throw at it.
