I posted these at www.schecterguitars.net/ but they seemed appropriate here, too.
If you're in Japan, you can snag one and you'd essentially have a Jaguar with different pickup combinations, a hardtail, simplified wiring and a 25.5" scale.

You can even have a 7-string version!

I can't imagine the target demographic for a 7 string, hardtailed, EMG equipped, sunburst/tort Jaguar.

Aside maybe for Fran, that is...

They're always ahead of the game. (Think Mustangs.)

Well clearly, seeing as they are intended for Japanese markets.

Maybe there's more to this, though? Is there an Indie Rap Metal scene in Japan that I don't know of?

:D Yeah, had to take the plunge. Especially after my "departure" from another forum. :roll:

Eh - I might be interested in a 7-string Jag. I've occasionally toyed with getting a cheap 7-string just to see what new stuff I can come up with.

I've had this screenshot saved for a while:

I kinda like the first one, but not interested in the other two.

Yeah, no joke. :? It could be anything from Japanese surf bands to Japanese emo kids. Or the grungers... :lol:

Schecter make some of the best playing guitars for the money, but unfortunately, most of their designs don't jive with me. I really want a Les Paul with a floyd rose, so they came out with the Solo 6, but it looks kinda wank. One guitar they have that is on my 'to do' list is the ATX V1, the cream binding and flat black v style.

What happened? Did you get banned from the offset forum?

Those Schecters look cool. I don't like the blank upper control plate though, needs moar switches.

First one is kind of cool but really not keen on the HB pup ring and a single without - just looks totally unbalanced to me. Also fuck that headstock in the eye. Potential for mods though for sure.
