Description

Schecter positioned the C-1 FR S Silver Mountain within its high-specification C-1 series, building it around a set-neck mahogany body with an arched top and black single-ply binding. The construction used a set-neck joint with Ultra Access heel contouring, and the three-piece mahogany neck incorporated carbon fiber reinforcement rods for added rigidity along its length.

The ebony fretboard carried 24 X-jumbo stainless steel frets on a 14-inch radius, with a Thin 'C' profile measuring .787 inches at the first fret and .866 inches at the twelfth. Luminlay glow-in-the-dark side dot markers ran the length of the board. The nut was a Floyd Rose 1500 Series unit at 1.625 inches wide, feeding a Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge — both finished in black hardware matching the rest of the appointments. Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners anchored the headstock. The pickup configuration paired a Schecter USA Sonic Seducer humbucker at the bridge with a Sustainiac driver at the neck; the Sustainiac system required a 9-volt battery housed in a dedicated clip-in compartment and was governed by a two-way on/off switch and a three-way mode switch selecting between Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic modes. The full control layout added Volume, Tone, and Intensity knobs — all metal knurled with set screws — alongside a three-way pickup selector. Schecter specified Ernie Ball Regular Slinky strings (.010–.046) from the factory.

Owners working on setup, fret work, or Floyd Rose maintenance should consult a qualified guitar technician familiar with double-locking tremolo systems to ensure correct spring tension, intonation, and nut-locking procedures.

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.

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.

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.
