Schecter built the E-1 SLS Elite as a high-specification neck-through instrument positioned at the upper tier of the E-1 line. Constructed in South Korea, it combined a swamp ash body with a flamed maple top and an ivory single-ply binding, finished in Antique Fade Burst. The neck-through-body construction incorporated an Ultra Access heel joint, and the multi-ply maple, walnut, and padauk neck was further reinforced with carbon fiber rods.
The 25.5-inch scale ebony fretboard carried 24 X-jumbo stainless steel frets across a 12-to-16-inch compound radius, with abalone offset/reverse dot inlays and matching abalone side dots. Neck thickness measured .748 inches at the first fret and .787 inches at the twelfth, conforming to Schecter's Ultra Thin 'C' profile. Nut duties were handled by an Ernie Ball Compensated Nut at 1.653 inches (42mm), and tuning was managed by Schecter locking tuners. The bridge was a TonePros T3BT tune-o-matic paired with a T1Z tailpiece, finished in black hardware throughout. Electronics comprised a Fishman Fluence Modern ceramic-magnet humbucker at the bridge and a Fishman Fluence Modern alnico-magnet humbucker at the neck — both active, drawing from a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment. The control layout offered a volume and tone knob (each push-pull) and a 3-way pickup selector, with metal knurled knobs secured by set screws. The instrument shipped strung with Ernie Ball Regular Slinky .010–.046 strings.
Owners requiring setup adjustments, fret work, or hardware sourcing should consult a qualified guitar technician, who can also advise on compatible TonePros and Fishman Fluence replacement components.
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.
