Description

Schecter positioned the C-6 Deluxe as an entry point into their bolt-on solid-body electric line, built in Indonesia with a basswood body and a maple neck joining it via bolt-on construction. The model carried a flat top with a bevel edge and was finished in Satin Aqua with chrome hardware throughout.

The neck ran a Thin 'C' profile measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the twelfth, topped with a rosewood fretboard carrying 4mm dot inlays. The 25.5" scale length accommodated 24 narrow X-jumbo frets over a 14" radius board. Nut width measured 1.653" (42mm) with a graphite nut, and the truss rod was a two-way adjustable unit accessed via a 5/32" Allen key. Schecter-branded tuners handled stringing, and the factory gauge ran .010–.046. Pickups were Schecter Diamond Plus humbuckers at both neck and bridge positions, routed through a volume control, a tone control, and a three-way toggle switch, with metal knurled set-screw knobs. The bridge was a tune-o-matic with string-through-body anchoring. The SGR-1C case was sold separately.

Owners sourcing replacement parts should note that the tune-o-matic bridge accepts standard tune-o-matic saddles and posts, and the 42mm graphite nut is a common width compatible with many aftermarket blanks. For setup adjustments, intonation work, or fret service, consult a qualified guitar technician.

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.
