The Nick Johnston Traditional electric guitar from Schecter is a metal and rock players' dream axe. Designed in conjunction with progressive rock instrumentalist virtuoso Nick Johnston, this solidbody electric guitar is built for tone. Featuring a lightweight, resonant alder body and roasted maple neck with ebony fingerboard, this guitar delivers great sustain and feels amazing in your hands. A trio of Schecter Diamond Nick Johnston Single-coil pickups is also onboard for pristine, hot-rocking tone.

Nick Johnston designed this guitar to play

Nick Johnston burst onto the progressive rock scene in the past decade as a young, visionary player who drew on many styles to produce truly innovative sounds and melodic instrumentals. He is known for his incredible neck work, and the Nick Johnston Traditional features a thin C-shaped, roasted maple neck that is ideal for exploring the type of aggressive artistry Johnston has become known for. The ebony fingerboard with 22 extra-jumbo frets produces wonderful intonation and is smooth and responsive. And really cool brass circle fingerboard inlays add an enticing visual to this already stunning neck.

Three single-coil pickups deliver killer tone

Three Schecter Diamond Nick Johnston Singe-coil pickups give you a massive array of classic single-coil tone. And with a 5-way pickup selector and master tone and volume controls, you can dial in subtle tone-shaping configurations from clear and singing to gritty and hard-hitting. And a Diamond Vintage Tremolo bridge adds stellar tonal support and tremolo coloring to your arsenal.
