Schecter positioned the Sun Valley Super Shredder FR S LH (item 1287) as a left-handed, performance-oriented solidbody electric within its Sun Valley Super Shredder line. The instrument was built in South Korea using a mahogany body with a flat top contour and a bolt-on maple neck, configured specifically for left-handed players.
The neck carries a Thin 'C' profile measuring .787" (20mm) at the first fret and .866" (22mm) at the twelfth, topped with a maple fretboard bearing offset/reverse dot inlays. The 25.5" (648mm) scale accommodates 24 X-Jumbo frets over a 14" (355mm) radius board. Locking duties at the headstock fall to a Floyd Rose Special nut (1.625" / 41.3mm wide), paired with a Schecter-exclusive Floyd Rose Special 'Hot Rod' locking tremolo at the bridge — both finished in black hardware. Electronics are centred on an EMG Retro Active Hot 70 at the bridge and a Sustainiac® driver at the neck, powered by a double 9-volt clip-in battery compartment. The control layout provides Volume/Volume/3-Way pickup switching alongside a 2-way Sustainiac on-off switch and a 3-way Sustainiac mode switch covering Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic modes. The 2-way adjustable truss rod is accessed via a heel-mounted spoke wheel. Schecter tuners and metal knurled set-screw knobs complete the hardware complement. The instrument shipped strung with Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky .009–.046 (no. 2222).
Owners seeking setup assistance, tremolo calibration, or Sustainiac system service should consult a qualified guitar technician familiar with Floyd Rose locking systems and active electronics.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
What do you know about this one?
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
