Schecter built the Hellraiser C-1 FR as part of its Hellraiser series, positioning it as a high-output, feature-laden electric guitar within the line. The model was manufactured in South Korea and configured for right-handed players. Its set-neck construction with Ultra Access was designed to facilitate reach to the upper register of the 24-fret neck.
The mahogany body carries an arched top and is bound with abalone alongside black/white/black multi-ply binding. The three-piece mahogany neck is shaped to a Thin 'C' profile, measuring .787" (20mm) at the first fret and .866" (22mm) at the twelfth, and is fitted with a rosewood fretboard radiused at 14" (355mm). Abalone Gothic Cross inlays run the length of the board. The Floyd Rose 1000 Series bridge is paired with a Floyd Rose locking nut at 1.625" (41.3mm) width, and Grover tuners are fitted to the headstock; all hardware is finished in black chrome. The electronics consist of an EMG 81TW at the bridge and an EMG 89R at the neck, each routed through a push-pull volume control that allows coil-splitting, alongside a single tone control and a 3-way selector switch. The instrument requires a 9-volt battery, housed in a clip-in compartment. Factory strings were Ernie Ball Regular Slinky (.010–.046).
Owners sourcing replacement parts — Floyd Rose components, EMG-compatible hardware, or Grover tuner replacements — should verify fit against the specifications above. For setup, intonation, or truss rod adjustment, 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.
