EMG Retro Active electronics





Schecter tapped EMG Pickups to supply the Sun Valley Super Shredder PT FR's horsepower. Their Retro Active electronics utilize a specially designed active preamp system and passive-style coils for a tone that boasts vintage clarity with modern power. The onboard preamp treats each coil of the pickups separately. This helps remove low-mid frequencies that can muddy up your signal. And a simple-to-use 2-knob control layout works in conjunction with the 3-way pickup selector to access a wide variety of tones.





Schecter-exclusive Floyd Rose Trem





Schecter and Floyd rose have partnered to bring you the Floyd Rose Hot Rod double-locking tremolo for a new level of control and stability. Floyd Rose has long been one of the best double-locking tremolo sellers at Sweetwater. And the Hot Rod is a specialized take on their iconic design that you will only find on select Schecter guitars. The addition of this trem is another appointment that prepares this Sun Valley Super Shredder PT FR for your best playing.
