Here’s a super-clean 2018 Schecter C-1 Koa with a fitted Schecter molded hard case. Schecter’s Diamond Series guitars have been price/performance leaders for years, and this C-1 Koa brings the goods with an elegant carved koa top, bound 24-fret ebony fretboard, locking tuners, and even a compensated nut.
The Schecter San Andreas pickups are high-output humbuckers with oversized pole pieces and ceramic magnets. While ceramic magnets may not have the vintage allure of Alnico, they deliver excellent clarity, touch response, and definition. In full humbucker mode, they can be a little too burly for pristine cleans, but they split better than just about anything short of an active pickup. The split tones are genuinely usable: clear, punchy, and the bridge pickup even has a little twang. The average C-1 player may not be channeling Johnny Cash or Tom Petty, but it’s nice to know the capability is there.
In full or split mode, the San Andreas pickups are built for tight, harmonically rich overdrive and distortion. With our JAM Rattler pedal, the C-1 Koa delivered powerful articulate crunch that’s perfect for classic rock, emo, and metal.
The Schecter C-1 Koa is a cover-band guitarist’s dream: it looks sharp, plays effortlessly, and can cover the bases from Fall Out Boy to ZZ Top to the Eagles.
Excellent condition, with only one minor mark on the bottom of the body (see photos) and an excellent neck with no fret wear. Includes a pro setup, setup checklist, and fitted Schecter molded hard case.
