Took the day to go to the Schecter Open House and was blown away.. Deals galore !!! I was a kid in a candy store ... But ultimately I left with this ..... An Ultra Prototype with case for a price I still can't believe I got it for ... Insane ..

Image


It looks like a 2006 Classic but they changed it some . It's one of the prototypes ... Plays like a dream ..

Surprised of the shape difference between the Ultra and the Ultracure .. They're completely different on so many levels . The Prototype is VERY Gibsony . The Ultracure is very Fendery/Grestchy/Schecter ..... Been playing them back to back and they're very different . Both great guitars .

I just wish they had some Bass VIs available that day...... :cry:

Nice real Nice... makes the ultra cure look a bit bloated and out of shape.

That is way nicer than any Ultra I've seen so far. I really like the headstock too.

That headstock is tits.
That's the route they should have taken for the Hellcat VIs, would make it a much better looking instrument.

Sweet score, indeed. I prefer the look of the Ultra IIIs, but this is pretty sick. And, yeah, there's a big difference between the Ultra and UltraCure; the ultra was a base platform, but they really went another direction.

HA HA, tbh, the ultra cure does that on it's own. UGLAY

whatever this guitar is it's pretty cool looking despite being a schecter

24 3/4 scale , solid mahogany . I like it . Thinking a Bigsby and Phat Cats are in store . The Duncan Design wannabe JBs are nice and all but I think a P100 variant would be interesting.

I was gonna buy a Levy strap at Sweetwater when I was buying my guitar cases the other day, and found out (through the marketing material) that NICKLEBACK are proud Levy strap users. And Levy is proud to pimp that fact.

I took my money elsewhere. BOYCOTT ANYONE THAT WORKS WITH NICKLEBACK.

Is that guitar neck-thru?

And Nickleback is a guilty pleasure like McDonalds Chicken McNuggets or Cinnabon.
No one admits to liking them, but someone must...

As I thought not even a month and I'm changing shit . The Phat Cats completely turned this guitar from great to just awesome .

The Bigsby B-5 is ordered and in route .







And Nickelback sucks . Wouldn't go as far as calling their fans douchebags .. Perhaps lemmings . :wink:

That guitar is looking sweet. The B-5 is going to make it even more awesome.
