Hey guys. I'm having trouble deciding on my next guitar. I already have a Schecter Hellraiser Hybrid loaded with Blackouts and tuned for drop c. I play mostly Godsmack and System of a Down kind of music on it. I want to replace my Ibanez RG1570L with another Schecter for E standard/Drop D tuning. I usually play Rocksmith and I also have a Mesa Rectoverb and Blackstar HT5R. Both combos. No gigging, just apartment rocking.

I would be using the new guitar for anything from Godsmack, Disturbed, Metallica, to multiple attempts at sweet child o mine, Chevelle, to Blink 182, Weezer, etc.

I'm thinking of either the Schecter KM6, C-1 Platinum, or Hellraiser Passive. Links below.

Which would you pick and why?
Pretend they're all the same price.

Also, I was wondering if anyone has personally heard the difference between the LW Must mustaine pickups and the Black winters. I bought the mustaines a while back thinking I'd put them in my Hellraiser Hybrid, but I loved the blackouts so much that I never took them out.

I'd choose the C-1 Platinum because it's the cheapest but looks legit. Pickups would be Full Shred neck and JB bridge.

Another vote for the C-1 Platinum. But mostly because it's very similar to my Omen-6 (also LH). I recently took both the stock pickups out and replaced the bridge with a Fishman Fluence, so it's a little closer to the Platinum, but still very cheap.

KM hands down for me. None more black.

What if they were all the same price? I will be financing it through Affirm so the difference in monthly payments is like $10 lol.
