JAPAN IMPORT
Here's a model from Schecter in Japan that I haven't seen before. Schecter were an American company formed in the late 70's, originally producing guitar parts before going on to manufacture their own guitars to a very high standard. The company was later bought by Shibuya Hisatake, a Japanese entrepreneur who also owned ESP. Their guitars are made in Japan & Korea, and most Japanese models are made at the Fujigen Gakki facility in Nagano Japan.
This particular guitar is from Schecter's Progauge Series and is in superb condition with barely a mark on it. To look at, the styling is from a 70's Strat with a large headstock but in typical Schecter fashion, it features other special features, particularly the electrics with it's 3 x "Monster Tone" J single coil pickups that have a multitude of tone options and also a split coil switch (push/push)
Here's some more info from the web:

Hard Case
As said many times, all my guitars come shipped in a new black hard case which is included in the price. I find this is the safest way to avoid damage in transit. Please contact me before purchasing if you would like this. Alternatively, if you are collecting the guitar and, like some buyers have cases coming out of their ears, that's no problem, I'll adjust the price (usually around a £50 discount) and I can usually find you an old gigbag to take the guitar away in. The only hard and fast rule I have is that i won't ship a guitar in a gigbag.
If you are further interested in this guitar, you can either email me with any queries & I'll do my best to get back to you within 24 hours.
Or, you can buy quickly and safely using the PayPal "buy now" button and I will ship to most UK addresses the next working day. Highlands and Islands can be slightly dearer but I'll keep the cost as low as I can.
I can accept credit card payments by phone and will also offer a small discount to purchasers using bank transfer payments.
Overseas customers are very welcome but please email me first for shipping quotes.
