The
Schecter Guitar
Research is
an American
guitar and
bass guitar manufacturer
based in
Burbank (California).
Initially
Schecter just made
instrument parts.
The company
started in 1989
to bring
a guitar
and later
a bass
guitar collection
on the
market. As
Schecter doesn't
sell their instruments themselves,
the company has
licensed sellers
in the
U.S. and Europe.
Schecter instruments
are relatively
difficult to obtain
because they
are rarely
available in
the local
music stores.
The reason
for this is that
Schecter guitars
and basses
are not
sent
out, such
as the
models of the
company Fender
in a
central European stock,
but only
go in
small numbers at
the stores directly out.
Both the
guitars and
the basses
are used
primarily in
metal and hard
rock,
but also
found in
jazz and
blues some use.
Schecter,
just like
other well-known
guitar manufacturers
has also
a "Signature"
series, those
guitar models
had on
their design
and technical equipment
known guitarists
and bassists
influence,
such as
those of the
American metalcore
band Avenged
Sevenfold inspired
Avenged Sevenfold
Custom Series.
Well-known musicians
who play
guitar or
bass from
Schecter are,
for example,
Robert Smith
of The Cure,
Mark Knopfler
of Dire
Straits,
Jeff Loomis
of Nevermore
and Sami
Yli-Sirniö
Waltari.
Also Alternative
Metal /
Nu Metal
bands like Papa
Roach (guitarist
Jerry Horton)
and Seether
(singer
/ guitarist
Shaun Morgan)
swear by Schecter
models.
