Description

Schecter positioned the V-1 Apocalypse FR Red Reign at the high-output, extended-range end of its Apocalypse series. The instrument was built in South Korea with a set-neck construction featuring Ultra Access, pairing a swamp ash body with a maple and padauk multi-ply neck reinforced with carbon fiber rods. The Red Reign finish was offered in satin black hardware.

The neck carries an ebony fretboard with a 12"–16" compound radius and 24 X-jumbo stainless steel frets, shaped into a Thin 'C' profile measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the twelfth. Roman numeral inlays mark the positions, with glow-in-the-dark side dot markers. The 25.5" scale runs from a Floyd Rose 1500 Series nut — 1.625" wide — to a Floyd Rose 1500 Series bridge, with Grover Rotomatic 18:1 tuners managing string tension. Both pickup positions carry Schecter USA Apocalypse-VI™ humbuckers, routed through a volume, a push-pull tone control, and a 3-way switch. Hipshot O-Ring knobs and black 1-ply body binding complete the hardware complement. Ernie Ball Regular Slinky .010–.046 strings were fitted at the factory.

Owners requiring setup work, Floyd Rose adjustments, or fretwork on the stainless steel frets should consult a qualified guitar technician familiar with double-locking tremolo systems.

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.
