Schecter Demon 7-Satin Black

Para ser una guitarra de 7 cuerdas me ha sorprendido que apenas supera el peso de mi preciosa Yamaha de 6 cuerdas. Es muy manejable.
El mástil se nota más ancho pero aún así es muy fácil moverse por él y tiene un tacto incluso mejor que mi vieja guitarra... Sinceramente una delicia.
El sonido... bueno, tiene unas pastillas activas y se nota superando con creces las dobles pastillas pasivas que he tenido. Tal vez no sea killer pero creo que está muy bien. He de decir que venía con una pila de marca.
Las cuerdas también son una delicia... está claro que están nuevas pero incluso así me han parecido de buena calidad.
Los acabados son perfectos... no puedo decir nada malo... y la guitarra me parece preciosa.

Pros: buenos acabados, buena calidad de los materiales, ligera, suave, fácil de tocar...

Creo que es una guitarra de muy buena calidad por el precio que tiene. Cada céntimo está justificado.

I was playing on this instrument for one month and I am ready to tell some details about this guitar. This is my first seven string guitar, also first guitar with active humbuckers. With this guitar, I used Boss GT1.

Firstly, I like how it built and overall feelings from touching it. It has good materials and I also like how it looks. Compare to my previous guitar, this has less weight. For a position, I am playing in classical position and it is quite comfortable to play, but for me, it was difficult to play it on a hip because it always going down.

For a sound, It was my first experience with active pickups and I got a good sound, also fewer noises from the processor. The sound is great. It has good deep sound with distortion and clears. But I received a problem with an additional metallic noise. I sent it back, but Thomann support said, that this is not a manufacturing problem, this is resonance effect. Support and return procedures were fast, and this is a good point for getting a guitar from this shop, they will not drop you)

In the end, pickups are the biggest problem for this guitar. They were produced by Schecter (or outsourced) and they have a microphonic problem. The noise problem was in pickups and I gave it to master. He took pickups from sockets and put material on the bottom. Also, some cloth before bridge and GruvGear on top. I still have some additional sound, but I have less and it is more comfortable to play.

if you want to play for yourself and you don't need to record songs, this guitar is a perfect choice. Also, if you are a perfectionist, you could have problems with this noise and you could need to fix it. If you have the ability to check it, try this guitar in local shops.

7 String guitar perfect for most of metal and aggressive styles.
Pros:
-active pickups
-not expensive guitar
- that black satin color is beautiful.
Cons:
-The line on the side around the entire guitar, i would say is too yellow. but that's just a taste thing.
- i thought the neck would be more comfortable. anyway it is confortable. but maybe is just a preference if it could be a bit more smooth and not that wide.
Anyway is a monster for "low" price. very happy.

Got this beauty week ago,
i was on a budget so i realy took my time and checked what should i get for under 500¤. I wanted 7 string and was choosing among Jackson/Ibanez/Schecter ... was a long battle between those 3 companies and at the end, Schecter prevailed. I did choose it only based on good reviews and some youtube tests. Also the looks are unpaired in under 500¤ category, same goes for pickups, this one was the only one for 500¤ that had actives in it. Since i really wanted actives, i choose this one.

I don't regret a thing bout this guitar.

It's built like a tank, came to my country nicely and safetly packed,
already set up pretty good. I will do the setup from 0 soon, though.

Pickups sound solid, cleans with a little reverb and echo go long way, and for the heavier sound? Well, let me say this, on drop A, sound is mean, angry and responsive. I paired this guitar with REVV G3 pedal and custom patch on my Katana 50.

And for this price, guitar is amazing! Sure i would like better pickups, wood and so on.

But for 500¤?

Amazing!
