Exotic wood combo for beautiful resonance and unwavering durability





The Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic's sharp looks aren't just for show. At its core sits a black limba body, comparable to the more common mahogany but with a brighter, more open sound. Though considered an exotic wood, wenge has quickly made its way into the builds of many of today's most reputable boutique manufacturers thanks to its bell-like sound, tough-as-nails durability, and incredible hand feel. Rounding out this axe is a tried-and-true ebony fingerboard, imbuing this 6-string with the tonewood's trademark glassy feel and effortless playability.





Scorching-hot pickups and high-quality hardware





An instrument named "Super Shredder" requires some seriously scorching pickups. Thankfully, Schecter's Sunset Strip and Pasadena pickups more than deliver. The Sunset Strip bridge humbucker is a perfect storm of aggression, output, and sustain, utilizing a ceramic magnet to increase the dynamics and compression for cutting cleanly through mixes. Likened to a cross between a Seymour Duncan JB and '59, the Pasadena neck humbucker is slightly overwound for additional output and unmistakable PAF-style tone. Throw in a highly expressive Floyd Rose locking tremolo for deep-sea dives and whammy wails, and the Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic is at the top of Sweetwater guitarists' lists of ideal single-guitar solutions for the concert stage.





Thin "C" neck profile geared for lightning-fast licks





Pick up the Sun Valley Super Shredder Exotic, and you'll experience extreme playing comfort, courtesy of Schecter's Thin "C" neck carve. This super-slim neck profile provides you with a major speed boost, making this axe an ideal choice for any aggressive playing style. And with the guitar's double-cut body design, you'll have no trouble reaching those high frets. Notwithstanding its slender profile, this neck gives you the dependable stability you demand, thanks to its bolt-on construction. Top it with a fast-playing compound-radius fingerboard ? complete with awesome offset/reverse circles ? and you're in frettin' heaven.
