Description

Schecter built the Wayne Hussey Corsair-12 as a signature twelve-string electric guitar developed in collaboration with Wayne Hussey. It sat within Schecter's Diamond Series and was constructed using a set-neck joint, an arched maple top, and a maple body, with gold multi-ply binding throughout.

The three-piece maple neck carried an ebony fretboard with 22 medium frets, a 14" (355mm) radius, and a Thin 'C' profile measuring .787" (20mm) at the first fret and .866" (22mm) at the twelfth. The 1.771" (45mm) nut width accommodated the wider string spacing required for twelve-string stringing, with a Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut handling that duty. Scale length ran 24.75" (628mm). Mother of Pearl Mission UK Design inlays marked the fretboard positions, with glow-in-the-dark side dot markers. Hardware was finished in gold throughout, with Grover tuners, a Diamond Adjustable-12 bridge, and Grip Tip Speed Knobs. Both neck and bridge positions carried Schecter Diamond Tubebucker pickups, wired through a 2 Volume / 2 Tone (Push-Pull) / 3-Way Switch control layout. The instrument shipped with Ernie Ball 12 String Electric #2230 (.010–.046) strings and was available in Ivory (IVY).

Owners sourcing replacement parts — particularly twelve-string-specific bridge saddles, Tusq nut blanks, or Grover tuner buttons — should consult a qualified guitar technician to confirm compatibility with the Diamond Adjustable-12 bridge spacing and the 45mm nut width before fitting any components.

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.
