DISC Schecter Blackjack Tempest Electric Guitar, Black

Full Description

Mahogany Body, Solid Maple Top

The Blackjack Tempest is a well-balanced guitar, from aggressive crunchy sounds to rich, clean tones, perfect for the modern-day player. The mahogany body offers a naturally warm tone with a touch of bite, creating beautifully tight lows and an appealing high end. The smooth contours of the body ad to the guitar's comfortable performance, allowing players to rest naturally against the body without hindrance. With black/red binding, black hardware, a TonePros bridge, and a sleek gloss black finish, the Blackjack is a stunning guitar.

Mahogany Neck, Ebony Fingerboard

The 3-piece mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard has been designed with a thin "C" shape for a smooth, fast play. The mahogany/ebony combination produces tight, warm tone with excellent definition, an open frequency range, and a fast attack. The two woods provide the guitar’s sound with a muscular, controlled bass and snappy, sizzling highs. It also comes with many other features including Schecter locking machine heads and red circle inlays.

Seymour Duncan Pickups

Designed with Seymour Duncan Nazgul and Sentient pickups, the Tempest guitar delivers searing highs, grinding mids, and a tight bass perfect for the modern player. The Sentient humbucker offers a balanced and versatile sound with a dynamic response, producing an incredibly clean tone and wide harmonic range thanks to its articulate vintage output. The Nazgul humbucker provides a bright tone and a sharp pick attack, with its large ceramic magnet and custom wiring specs offering the perfect blend of note articulation and saturation. This is perfect for creating powerful chugs with a tight bass response and an aggressive high gain.
