Features
  • Premium Body & Neck Construction: The Synyster Custom-S features a solid mahogany body, known for its rich, warm tone and long sustain. It uses a set-neck construction with Schecter’s Ultra Access heel, which allows for smooth playability all the way up to the 24th fret—ideal for lead players and shredders. This design offers a sturdy, resonant connection between the neck and body, enhancing tonal depth and sustain.

  • Fast-Playing Neck with Ebony Fingerboard: This model is built for speed, featuring a 3-piece mahogany neck reinforced with carbon fiber rods for added stability. The neck is shaped with an ultra-thin ‘C’ profile, making it comfortable for fast solos and technical riffs. Topping it off is a 16” radius ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets—perfect for aggressive bending and low action. The glow-in-the-dark side dots also add a practical edge for stage visibility.

  • Signature Visual Style: Visually, the Synyster Custom-S stands out with its gloss black finish and gold pinstripes, matching gold hardware, and signature inlays. The fingerboard features a gold “SYN” logo and the iconic Avenged Sevenfold Deathbat at the 12th fret, reinforcing its artist-inspired identity. Every visual detail has been carefully designed to reflect Synyster Gates’ bold aesthetic.

  • High-Output Pickups with Sustainiac System: This guitar is loaded with a powerful Schecter USA Synyster Gates signature humbucker in the bridge for cutting tones, and a Sustainiac pickup in the neck, enabling infinite sustain and harmonic feedback. The Sustainiac comes with its own dedicated switches for on/off and harmonic mode control (Fundamental / Mix / Harmonic), making it a unique tool for ambient textures or controlled feedback.

Why We Love This
