Description

Schecter positioned the C-1 SLS Elite at the upper tier of their C-1 series, built in South Korea as a high-specification instrument aimed at players demanding modern performance features. The neck-thru-body construction with Ultra Access was paired with a Swamp Ash body and a Flamed Maple top finished in Antique Fade Burst, with Ivory 1-ply binding completing the profile.

The multi-ply Maple, Walnut, and Padauk neck incorporates Carbon Fiber Reinforcement Rods and carries an Ebony fretboard with a 12"–16" compound radius, 24 X-Jumbo Stainless Steel frets, and Abalone Offset/Reverse Dot inlays with matching Abalone side dots. The Ultra Thin 'C' profile measures .748" at the first fret and .787" at the twelfth. A 25.5" scale length and 1.653" nut width are served by an Ernie Ball Compensated Nut. Schecter Locking tuners and a Hipshot Hardtail bridge with string-thru-body anchoring handle tuning stability and sustain at the hardware level, all in black. Electronics are fully active: a Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic Magnet humbucker at the bridge and a Fishman Fluence Modern Alnico Magnet humbucker at the neck, controlled via push-pull Volume and Tone knobs and a 3-way switch, powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery. The factory string set was Ernie Ball Regular Slinky .010–.046.

Owners requiring setup adjustments, fretwork, or hardware sourcing should consult a qualified guitar technician, particularly when working with the active Fishman Fluence circuit or the heel-access spoke-wheel truss rod.

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.

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.
