Solidbody Electric Guitar with Nyatoh Body, Multi-ply Maple and Rosewood Neck, Ebony Fingerboard, and 2 Humbucking Pickups – Scarlet Burst

Shred from Sunrise to Sunset-6

“Schecter Guitar Research” is no mere catchphrase. Every axe in Schecter’s repertoire — classic and contemporary — results from meticulous work by their luthiers, sparing no effort to deliver a bona fide shred machine. The indelibly articulate Sunset-6 is no exception, outfitted with premium appointments to ensure no punch is pulled with every lick and lead. Superlative tonewoods comprising maple, rosewood, nyatoh, and ebony culminate in a sonorous mix of substantial sustain, excellent articulation, and heaps of tonal heft. A high-speed neck complements a 25.5-inch scale, sprawling with 24 frets of unfettered riff-crafting potential. Guitarists especially appreciate the menagerie of Schecter’s house-made hardware, from their locking tuners and hardtail bridge to their Schecter USA pickups to bring these high-octane sonics to life.

Premium tonal appointments for flexible firepower

Luthiers at Schecter spared no effort in devising the optimal mix of tonewoods to deliver superlative shred-sonics with the Sunset-6 Extreme. Its tonal profile is anchored by its nyatoh body, known for its blossoming harmonics, musical overtones, and mid-heavy tone. The neck boasts a dyad of maple and rosewood to impart bright articulation throughout every register, bolstered by the rosewood’s crystalline sheen. Up top, an ebony fingerboard serves up serious sustain with unrivaled clarity. Taken together, the Sunset-6 Extreme elicits evocative tones, melding aural heft with sustaining distinction to ensure everything from raucous riffs to searing solos is always at its best.

Superlative speed meets uncompromising accessibility

Choosing to pair maple and rosewood in the Sunset-6 Extreme’s neck does more than just provide a delightfully complex sonic array. It supplements your sound with a dimensional stability to prevent from warping or twisting, making it a great choice for gigging and touring musicians. What’s more, a carefully sculpted heel and cutaway are complemented by an Ultra Thin “C” neck profile to comfortably accommodate speed and access to all 24 frets across its 16-inch fingerboard radius and 25.5-inch scale. Schecter locking tuners and their Diamond Hardtail Plus bridge bookend your strings, joined by a Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut for reliable intonation and buzz-free tones.

In-house pickups optimized for performance

Keeping with their namesake research, the Sunset-6 Extreme is outfitted with a pair of Schecter USA humbuckers that leverage a passive design. In the neck, a Pasadena pickup utilizes direct-coupled Alnico V magnets for smooth yet articulate tones. The bridge, on the other hand, hosts a Sunset Strip pickup with direct-coupled Ceramic 8 magnets, harmonizing heat and heft to bolster wild riffs and serious chug. Both pickups feature a split-coil design, and the accompanying 5-way selector ensures pain-free traversal of tremendous tonal territories, further streamlined by the sole master volume knob to minimize clutter and maximize tone-crafting possibilities.
