The Schecter Temptest 40th Anniversary Electric Guitar is perfect for the working guitarist who wants to stand out from the rest. This asymmetrical double cutaway has a lot to offer. It features a comfortable mahogany body with solid maple cap in a finish that lets the woodgrain shine through. The mahogany neck is joined using Schecter's ultra access deep insert joint, giving you amazing access to the upper register. The neck sports a thin C profile and has an ebony fretboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets.
This Tempest comes with some high-performance electronics including Schecter USA Pasadena and Pasadena Plus 40th Anniversary pickups. They come wired to individual volume controls and a master tone control with push/pull coil-tapping. Black hardware includes a TonePros tune-o-matic bridge and Schecter locking tuners.
