@@SonicDriveStudio I don't think I can afford a new guitar right now, but this definitely makes me want to study the wiring behind it and mod one of my current guitars to get that kind of sound 😅
Oh, I hadn't noticed before, the plastic is transparent enough that you can see the copper coils. That's kinda cool. What I don't understand is that humbuckers work by each coil bucking the hum of the other. With 3 coils, you're adding hum that has no reverse phase to cancel it.
Incredibly heavy sound from the triple coil, but also surprisingly versatile with everything else! Would be a lovely guitar to own. It's like if a super metal 7-string baritone had a baby with a Tele!
After having my guitar stolen and going through a bunch of crazy stuff, my life is finally somewhat back to normal, except for my guitar. Today i freaked out and went to guitar center and this is the first guitar i picked up. I know i like schecters, and i was really interested in the pickups. I had a damien 7 before and have played an omen and a diamond, but this one feels a little more homey to me, because it is different and unique to anything ive played before, yet extremely nice and useful. The price really surprised me even with the somewhat simple visual design. I got it for $700. Grabbed the new spark 2 modeling amp as well. The staff actually didnt know anything about the guitar, they said they just got it in, hadnt heard of it and hadnt had the time to look into it yet. It was like fate. I absolutely love the guitar and the amp they are awesome and im having so much fun with them.
I would love to see you put out some songwriting and recording workflow/walkthru videos. Your music is very well arranged, and it sonically always sounds good in all your demos. I use axe fx 3 and looking for some recording tips with that. Just a simple request
Grounding noise on a lot of guitars is because of the finish on the bridge where they are usually grounded. Clean a spot back to bare metal and reground...
played one at Guitar Summit this year and it was just a really mean looking, sounding and playing guitar for a fair price... so even if it was 'just hype', it still is an awesome guitar imho
Most or at least a large part of the Indonesian-made guitars and basses that have a "mahogany" body or neck use in fact, nyatoh. It is a local wood (therefore cheaper) with resemblance to mahogany in the grain and color but is lighter in weight and more resistant to warp and dents.
I think a single humbucker in the bridge location may be the best overall design, as it simplifies dialing in great tones, particularly when paired withe the power of modern Modelers and Preset versatility.
Hej Johny, great vid, as always 😊 What pick do you use for your recordings? Maybe some episode on how the pick influences your tone. Because you definitely have fantastic tone. Cheers from across the Ocean 😁
Id love guitar with just tribucker pickup with a 3 way switch. Not a big fan of that shape or single pickup. Hopefully they will put this in a sg style guitar shape 😊
Is position 2 any noticeably noisier than position 1? I've been wondering how or if they would get rid of the noise if all three coils are equal in output.
@@SonicDriveStudio i think for what it costs here in germany there are some better options from schecter out there but lets wait and see how the sells are going, can be a new big hype or a big commercial flaw, i will have an eye on the used market that can also be a good indicator whats going on with these kind of guitars
I wanted to order one and the sick new sunset extremes...but the triple coil models seems to be a 2024 preorder..+600 more expensive here in Germany because of import and 3rd party costs...sad. It's one of the very few Schecters under 2.5k that come with stainless steel, and I don't even try guitars without stainless steel anymore, since I don't support artificial inflation or guitars, and music in general, being gatekept by companies trying to sell instruments for the same prices as cars and luxury goods. But, bolt on is good for easy replacements, if it ever gets damaged. People always talk about sustain but never let ring notes long enough to make use of the neck-through, unless you play doom or doom death metal. I actually killed one neck by falling over when my leg fell asleep, so I can understand why people would want bolt-ons even at higher price ranges
the biggest downside of this overly specialised guitar is that you are just bond to this pickup forever because regular pickups don`t fit in it..and if you have to replace that 3 coil thing one day schecter is charging 300$ for that replacement part 🙄
Any thoughts on the Schecter Sunset Triad models? All hype or actually awesome?
Opening song demo sounds like if Sevendust and Meshuggah had a baby 🤘🤘
That description works for me! Love bands! ❤️
I LIKE JUICE!!!!
I love juice AND bands.
Perfect description !
Well said!
I saw this thing and searched it up. Glad to see who was reviewing it. This channel always gives the best demos and reviews.
Much appreciated! Thanks!
Finally a high gain demo with the triple bucker in 3 humbucker mode ! thumbs up, great demo
Thanks! Sounds pretty massive eh?
Very interesting guitar. Schecter has so many great models. Nice to see them trying different things. Rockin' riffs and great review!!
Thanks and agreed!
Jon, it's always a joy to listen to your demo songs! Great video as always!
Thanks my friend!
SIKK RIFFS!! Loved that mix and playing!
REALLY digging that parallel sound in position 4!
It's sooooo good!

That first song you played, is rad as hell! Reminds me of early sonic Drive demos. Sweet job Jon!!!
Glad you liked it, thanks!

That is true and I wondered the same thing. It gives you more gain, but should also give you back 50% of the hum

Amazing demo showed everything in full detail!! Considering getting it one because it’s a baritone 7 and 2 because it’s very affordable and versatile

This had to be one of my favorite tone songs ever! Those chugs were meaaaaaan!
Thanks!
The Sunsets are basically John Browne's sig guitar as a whole new model, which I dig. I wonder who makes replacements for the triple pickup lol.
dem riffs dude. wow. jawdropping
Thank you very much!

That clean tone❤❤❤
Mint track buddy
Cheers man!
all awesome 🔥🔥🔥
Cheers!
3:40 what is the difference between "bild and constrution"?
I'm not native english. Just trying to fully understand.
Basically the same mate
I've been playing guitar for a year and have been wanting a 7 string to try out..... I think this might be the one for me.
I think a single humbucker in the bridge location may be the best overall design, as it simplifies dialing in great tones, particularly when paired withe the power of modern Modelers and Preset versatility.
That demo song? noice!
It's a good sounding guitar! Looks great and I like 7 string guitars. It's on my list now... 😊
awesome
Most definitely!
I love it.
I think it's a really awesome gimmick
That works :)
Hej Johny, great vid, as always 😊 What pick do you use for your recordings? Maybe some episode on how the pick influences your tone. Because you definitely have fantastic tone. Cheers from across the Ocean 😁
Thanks! The green Dunlop ones. .88 I believe
God, Jon. Nice playing but maybe try-out heavier gauge strings, going sharp all the time just drives je nuts!!!
Anyone familiar with how well a guitar like this tends to stay in tune? I'm used to Floyd Rose bridges to lock things down.
Cool guitar with a unique feature… but I am still partial to the E1 when it comes to schecter!
Love the E1!

A touch more noisy
godverdomme dat klinkt lekker
Jatoch?!
since i`m a big schecter fan, It's a shame that this guitar is so much more expensive in Germany than in the US 😭
It's still worth it!
@@SonicDriveStudio maybe a bit too special for me i like to have the possibility to change pickups

What is the DC resistance of that Triad Position?
No idea...
Bro, PLEASE tell me you have played the Bad Cat Lynx…. I just picked one up, and OMG.
I have not
my boy this was tight AF
What did you think of that third triple coil clip? Pretty beefy eh?

Hi from indonesia john🤘
Have to admit it sounded gimmicky to me but I really like the pickup switching options.
This guitar could be perfect if 8 and 7 strings were available with FR systems and using the second section of the triad as another humbucker. But ok.
0:41 sounds very Megaherz
I never asked for triple buckers, why do they exist? 😅
No roman numeral numbers make me sad :(

When you have other guitars it doesn't matter, It's just another "flavour"...
@@MickH60 i would rather get an apocalypse instead for the same amount of money!
Why would you buy this guitar other than to get the triple coil? It's literally the whole gimmick.
@@neighbourhoodmusician "gimmick" 👍. a pricey gimmick, here in germany, the US price looks much better to me and is maybe worth a try! cheers
Gosh darn it Jon, when do you get a singer? These songs need a vocalist.
I really like it but if I get a schecter it's going to be a banshee. You hear me schecter? Get the 7string banshees with sustainiac back in stock!
I have a Banshee 6 Passive from 2014. The best guitar I have. Period!
The Banshees are amazing!
Indeed hype and gimmick but cool
Nonetheless
Hype sure, but not so much a gimmick because it offers versatility! Imho
Single coil in the neck yyyyup
A .68 for Ab??? Well it is a 27 in scale.
Lots of tonal variation ...
Bolt ons just sound better. Fight me
Drums sound horrible, riff is great but drums sound like trash cans.
luckily its about the guitar right
Gee thanks! Haha, I love this drum sound!
