Schecter positioned the V-1 Apocalypse LH as a left-handed variant within its Apocalypse series, built around a set-neck construction with Ultra Access and a swamp ash body finished in Red Reign. The guitar carried satin black hardware throughout and a flat top profile.
The multi-ply maple and padauk neck incorporated carbon fiber reinforcement rods and was cut to a Thin 'C' profile, measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the twelfth. A 25.5" scale ebony fretboard with a 12"-16" compound radius hosted 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets, Roman numeral inlays, and glow-in-the-dark side dot markers. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut measured 1.653" wide. A TonePros T3BT tune-o-matic bridge paired with a T1Z tailpiece anchored the strings, with a 2-way adjustable truss rod accessible via a 5/32" Allen nut. Both pickup positions carried Schecter USA Apocalypse-VI™ humbuckers, controlled by a volume knob, a push-pull tone knob, and a 3-way switch, all fitted with Hipshot O-Ring knobs. Schecter locking tuners completed the hardware complement. The instrument shipped strung with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky .010–.046 strings; the SGR-8V case was sold separately.
Owners requiring setup adjustments, fret work, or parts sourcing for the TonePros hardware, Graph Tech nut, or Schecter locking tuners should consult a qualified guitar technician.
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.
