I converted to Schecter last year after starting out with a Nick Johnston HSS in Atomic Green. What a stunning piece of gear that is. NEVER thought I’d be a Schecter guy despite growing up as a solely metal player (which the brand is synonymous with). I then bought an Aaron Marshall AM-6 because I love the NJ that much. And now I’m a Schecter guy. Fantastic brand.
The dual strap buttons is a hold over from when Tom Anderson was making guitars with them (a staple on his guitars), not for strap position but to help stand/lean up against an amp if you didn't have a stand. Kinda practical.
Oh, man, Paul. Perfect tone and outstanding playing on the Dire Straights piece. Amazing balance from low strings to high on this guitar. Definitely a keeper!
Paul, great video, glad you like the guitar. It sounds like you, watch a lot of your videos and it doesn't seem to matter what guitar you play, it sounds like you.
I had a Schecter Strat back in the ‘80s and kept it for 40 years. The weak point was the cabling that had to be redone and the neck was one of the finest I’ve played on a Strat. The 2 strap buttons also were destined to give stability to the guitar when standing on the floor and leaning against an amp, thus precluding it from falling… cheers Paul !
Nice video Paul, Lovely guitar, worth a thought if they are cheaper. Once again your selection of style and chords put me into a certain feeling which I can't describe but it's good.
That Schecter is what I believe Fender SHOULD be making day after day. I agree with @ScoobyStrat that your touch and skill do add just a wee bit 'o goodness to the sound.
And Suhr, and Tom Anderson and Xotic and etc etc. Custom Shop is Custom Shop bud. Does not matter who the builder is, no custom shop is going to make sub par products. Even the ones we haven't heard about because you can't throw "Custom Shop" title on just anything unless you want to go broke. I own plenty and all every bit as good as the other, but I prefer Suhr.
Those of us old enough, I'm 54, remember when Wayne Schecter was as important to the southern Californian hotrod/custom rock guitar scene in the late 70s/early 80s as Grover Jackson, Wayne Charvel and Lynn Elsworth. Schecter was a high end replacement parts builder and supplied many company's and players with replacement parts. Knopflers three main Schecter guitars starting around the Love Over Gold era? were built by John Suhr from Schecter parts when he was working at Rudy's guitar shop in New York. This lead to Townshend and other players purchasing John's Schecter parts builds also. Wayne Schecter seeing this then decided to go into production building 'Schecter' guitars as we now know them. Don't quote me, but I believe Wayne Schecter may have then done a deal that guitar shops were prevented from building full guitars using Schecter parts. Also in regard to the Rudy's/Suhr Schecter guitars it's very important to remember that John Suhr wasn't just putting these guitars together slap dash like us regular blokes. John was doing the final finishing and adjustments to the frets, bridge install, electronics and his setup and intonation. This is what took these guitars to the next level.
Steavie Ray Vaughan also used a Schecter neck - they were providing replacement parts for fender at the time. Knopfler also had a Schecter tele. Also these pickups are not original - Schecter wires their own.
Put that Strat in the hands of a beginner or even an intermediate player and they will only sound like themselves, whereas you are in the very top 1/1000th % of Guitar players anywhere in any realm and on any planet. You are that gifted, talented, inspired and you have more than earned this praise. I have watched your stuff for a long time and I have always thought these words about you.
Schecter are some of the best playing guitars I’ve ever played. Wouldn’t sell my PT fastback ii for anything! I did change the pickups and installed locking tuners but the feel and the neck are unparalleled!
I completely missed this video in my feed. I have a Schecter NJ Diamond Series which is a very fun S Style guitar. For the price it is, it's well worth it but obviously not to the level of the Custom Shop. I do really like the quality of the new Schecter products. BTW Paul your playing is so lovely to hear, very tasteful, your notes are super clear and your approach to playing is always so humble. Great video!
Schecter are really a class act. I haven’t got my own one (yet) but my wife has a Schecter bass and it is awesome, all things to all men (and women of course).
Fantastic playing. I’m such a Knopfler fan and you nailed it. By the way, Fender used to make this as the Lonestar Strat. Pearly Gates in the bridge and Texas Specials in the neck and middle. Love them. I have two.
The two strap buttons are for balance when sit turn the guitar on that end. It actually works well. But I agree, it looks a bit ugly cause we’re so used to the way it’s always been
I have a usa traditional hss, with a superrock humbucker and monstertone single coils (all of which are tapped with a push pull pot). It's utterly fantastic.
Your custom shop Strat with the JB had a 250k vol pot. It even said so in the specs on the video. This likely has the correct 500k pot making the JB sound less dark.
great video brodda! I bought a Schecter with stainless frets...omg, they are huge! and out of all my other guitars with ss frets... none quite match the smoothness and glide effect when playing that Schecter.
Love Schecter … even the cheaper ones play great. Paul, I know you mainly focus on gear but it would be awesome if you did a video on legato… love your legato!
@@TheStudioRats you’re too hard on yourself.. and I watch both regularly along with Rick Graham and a bunch of others … but you have a rock simplicity that really intrigues me that’s so different from the others.
Always great playing on this channel.. Just very cool! That guitar sounds great too for sure.. I'm not a huge fan of the JB in a strat style guitar.. It's too ice pick in the ear with the treble usually in my experience. I like the JB in a LP style guitar because of the scale length! Good stuff
It's awesome. My Nick Johnston (Asian) is a gem....but pups are a bit bright. Just dropped a loaded Fralin pickguard today into my '93 MIA Strat...lefty....Vintage Hots x2 and a Blues Special...blender pot....nice!! Great vid...keep the Schecter...don't want any regrets later. Cheers
You didn't butcher the Dire Straits song, it was really nicely played! I really need to try a Schecter S-style (though not custom shop, I don't have the cash), though with a SSS pickup setup. I'm looking for an awesome Strat type guitar that sets up well tuned down a whole step.
Uhh nice! I have a USA CS Nick Johnston Schecter and, omfg, after having Suhrs and other superstrats, the Schecter is my favorite. Just so nice in every way. Hope you can try the NJ at some point. The Wenge neck is just wow...best looking and feeling neck i've ever had. Nice one, I love my Schecter, has became my number 1 guitar. And the NJ USA is not a very thin neck. I like chunkier necks in general ,and the NJ one just fits perfect. Not thin not chunky, very very nice.
You do know that the Schecter Custom Shop guitars like the one he is playing are expensive guitars. They can cost as much as a Suhr. Very different from the non-custom Schecters.
You missed one the key points of two strap buttons. When resting it not on a stand, the guitar wont spin around like a top on one strap button. I have surf green one and its one of my favorite guitars.
The sultans of schecter. Zakk Wylde has his custom line of "fiddles" as he calls them. Built by the boys out in CA. Schecter is in the realms of Suhr and the like. Definitely some of the best.
I have a Schecter Custom Shop Strat, the Mark Knopfler model and it’s the best Strat I’ve ever played and the pickups are stunning - tappable single coils! I paid £750 for it. With a case. I win!
Was the Black Telecaster from the Eminence Front video the Schecter? So have you thrown it across rocks and ordered the Thornbucker for it yet? That Trem looked spotty as well.
That sounds incredible mate, have you looked at the Schecter Nick Johnston signature series? Incredible value for money you should check them out. Also that tone was 🔥👌
I just checked out their website and I see no model six string that looks anything like the guitar you're holding there. I also checked out the custom shop and they all look like super stats and yours looks more like a traditional Strat.
Like most of you when we think of a nice trem hss super strat we think modded fender, charvel, Ibanez, and so far the best would be suhr....but I have been seeing these schecter and they are incredible. Fender should take notes schecter is killing it lately all the way down to the $1000 price range they are incredible
Having a USA Schecter is definitely one of my dream guitars. It's funny that a lot of people only know them for the import mid-range stuff, which is definitely metal focussed but even with that side of their offering there are quite a few retro inspired models. They are one of my favourite brands as the first guitar I bought with my own money (and my first actual decent guitar) was a Reaper-6 which plays incredibly well. Quite a few of their import models have ultra-thin necks which is one of my favourite things. I believe they are one of the few custom shops that can truly do anything you want...if you go for the top 'Masterworks' level, you can go for custom body shapes, finishes, pickups. Pretty much anything that doesn't violate another brand's copyright. This one really caught my eye from Peach Guitars: th-cam.com/video/CpQNSvWOAAc/w-d-xo.html Best sounding single coils I've ever heard, although Suhr's are on a similar level. I've never been able to play a USA Schecter in person yet though, whereas my local shop is one of the few UK Suhr dealers and they were kind enough to let me try a Standard Plus, even though that kind of stuff is outside of my budget atm they still let me try it just to get the feel and the single coils sounded very spanky! That Schecter was going for almost double the price of the Suhr though, and would have been even more if Peach spec'd them with stainless frets. Those resin tops look awesome, that's what caught my eye first.
No connection whatsoever between the early Schecters used by Knopfler, Townsend etc and what you have here today. The original Schecter company was sold in 1984 and existed thereafter by name only. The early guitars were the brainchild of Dave Schecter and Tom Anderson hence your two strap buttons....seen still today on Anderson Guitars, made not for strap positioning but to help your guitar lean up against the amp safer.
Sounds just like all your others because of your harsh sounding rigs, I dig your channel, value and playing. But I’ve heard some great tones from you and this just isn’t it. The clean tones though are spot on!
Look, buy a Vintage Brand Icon for 600 dollars..it plays and sounds as good as this or any other Strat style...why spend the money for what? A opinionated review of another guitar..who cares..so what!!!!! My money is on my top of the line Vintage Brand strat hanging on the wall in my studio..IT'S KILLER PEOPLE..KILLER...hell my Ovation Preacher sounds better than that Schecter Strat and it's 54 years old....

Every day's a school day! 👍
Came for the same reason 😂, My T. Anderson Pro Am has the dual buttons. There a Tom Andersons factory tour video on TH-cam where Tom discusses this.

I have two Schecter PT Fastbacks, one with humbuckers and one with filtertrons. They're both really solid instruments.
The two strap buttons are to make it more stable when you lean it against a wall. Tom Anderson does it too.
I actually love it Paul hope you keep it now I want one 🔥😎👊🏻
I have two Schecter Custom Shop guitars and I love them. I especially like monstertone pickups!
Those pickups are excellent!

You did not sell your Paisley p90 Strat did you?
A couple of months ago.
@@TheStudioRats 😪 what a shame. Hard to find a semi hollow strat with p90s
Actually, very nice touch on that Dire Straits classic.

Playing is great as usual but I don't like that cocked wah honk from seymour duncan.

If its as good as you say Paul this guitar is priced very very reasonably. It is a bewt.
so which guitar did you trade with?

I'm sure the pots are 250k, that may be why you like the JB in this guitar.
you are also actually meant to use the two as a stand.
it goes back in their history or something.
Cost ???
