Schecter is expanding its E-1 lineup with two new E-1 Standard models, each carrying an affordable $499.99 price tag. The guitars are available in Charcoal Satin and Blood Burst, with a few differences in their top materials and finishes.
Both models feature a Mahogany body with a bolt-on Roasted Maple neck, a Rosewood fingerboard, 22 jumbo frets, and a 24.75-inch scale length. The neck has a Thin “C” profile, a 14-inch fingerboard radius, and White Pearloid block inlays. Hardware includes Schecter tuners, a Tune-O-Matic bridge with a Stopbar tailpiece, and black metal dome knobs.
Electronics are identical across both guitars, with a pair of Schecter ’78 humbuckers featuring black metal covers. Controls consist of master volume, master tone, and a three-way toggle switch.
The Charcoal Satin model pairs its Mahogany body with an Ash top, while the Blood Burst version gets a Flamed Maple top. Both feature black one-ply binding and black hardware.
At $499.99, the E-1 Standard models offer a relatively accessible entry point into Schecter’s single-cut lineup. Get ’em here.
