Turbo-charged tone
Articulate lows. Glassy highs. And plenty of midrange punch. The Sun Valley Super Shredder gets its signature grit from a pair of thunderous humbucker pickups. At the bridge, the EMG Retro Active Hot 70 delivers detailed intensity and fluid sustain. Built with a uniquely voiced plug-in FET preamp, your tone will kick with the power of an active pickup and the dynamics of a passive.
At the neck, a legendary Sustainiac pickup boosts your tone into overdrive. It pushes sustain into a different universe, making your notes ring out endlessly - perfect for heavy divebombs and screeching solos. Both humbuckers work together for well balanced, dynamic expression. This is for the guitarist who demands the best.
Ideal neck for shredding
Fly up and down the fretboard. You're unlikely to find a faster-playing neck than the ultra-slim, "C" shaped one on the Super Shreder. The slender profile allows you to hurtle from bottom to top in the blink of an eye, perfect for electrifying, intoxicating shredding and solos. The "C" shape means your hand will sit comfortably anywhere along the neck, meaning you can play on long into the night without worry of cramp. The perfect accomplice to send audiences into frenzy.
The definitive aid for pinpoint playing precision. The Sun Valley's jumbo-sized frets give you more room to manoeuvre in your playing. You're certain to hit every note no matter how blisteringly fast your shredding is. While you're at it, every note will sound raw and vicious thanks to a hard, sleek maple fretboard. Despite being incredibly smooth and slick to the touch, maple is one of the brighter fretboard woods, which means it delivers unparalleled bite and ferocity in every single note. Capture monstrous sound.
Tremolo with complete control
Experiment with ease and freedom. Welcome trembling, quivering tremolo effects into your playing thanks to the Super Shredder's Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' Locking Tremolo bridge - exclusive to Schecter.
Transform your pitch to create powerful, invigorating screeches. The whammy bar lets your guitar moan and wail to give your playing a hair-raising edge. The FR's double-locking bridge means that no matter how much you use your tremolo, your strings will be locked in tune. Be as liberal as you like with the tremolo without ever worrying about dropping out of tune.
