Schecter Blackjack SLS

Re: Schecter Blackjack SLS

I will tell you now that you will love it. I read a lot of reviews about the full shred online whilr deciding if I wanted one. A lot of the reviews said it was a one trick pony. Of course this is subjective, but I disagree. I have been able to get all the sound I want from it. With the volume all the way up on the guitar, it has an awesome metal/ thrash sound. Notes really stand out with it. Unlike invaders which I find often drown out certain notes, every lick stands well on its own. Even tho I have the fr, the sustain is pretty amazing with it. The string thru of the avenger model will be even better. You will be pleased.

I have pretty much left my amp settings alone (ie distortion at 10) and when I want to switch to say maybe a more Creedence sound, I just drop the guitars volume and up the master vol on my amp a bit. Its a good pickup. Very versatile, even more so if I mess w my amp...but I like where it is at. I would def say it is not a one trick pony pickup. You will like it.

And yes, the inlay looks a lot better in person. But so does the satin finish. The guitar is simply beautiful and plays like a dream

Oh boy! awesome news! I heard it was a bright guitar, so I thought the FS might be a strange pup choice, but you have changed my mind about that. I am now going to contact my nearest Schecter dealer and beg them to get a SLS Avenger in so I can try it!
