Description

Schecter positioned the C-6 Deluxe as an entry point into their bolt-on double-cutaway line, built in Indonesia and finished in Satin Purple. The model carried Schecter's own hardware throughout and was designed to deliver a familiar, player-friendly platform at a modest tier of the catalogue.

The basswood body features a flat top with a bevel edge and accepts a Tune-O-Matic bridge with string-through-body stringing. The maple neck is bolt-on, shaped to Schecter's Thin 'C' profile — measuring .787" at the first fret and .866" at the twelfth — and carries a rosewood fretboard with 4mm dot inlays, a 14" radius, and 24 narrow X-Jumbo frets. The graphite nut measures 1.653" (42mm) wide and the scale runs 25.5" (648mm). Both bridge and neck positions are loaded with Schecter Diamond Plus pickups, routed through a Volume/Tone/3-Way Switch arrangement with metal knurled knobs. Tuning machines are Schecter-branded, and all hardware is finished in chrome. A 2-way adjustable truss rod is accessed via a 5/32" (4mm) Allen nut. The guitar ships with .010–.046 strings; a case (SGR-1C) was sold separately.

Owners sourcing replacement parts should note that the Tune-O-Matic bridge accepts standard TOM-pattern saddles and posts, the 42mm nut width accommodates commonly available graphite blanks, and the 25.5" scale is compatible with widely stocked string sets. For setup adjustments or parts matching, consult a qualified guitar technician.

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.

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.
