Schecter Banshee Elite-7 In Cat’s Eye Pearl

When you call a guitar the Banshee subtlety is not high on the agenda and the two SuperCharger pickups in this 7 string bad boy do not dissapoint. If you fancy even more destructive power then check out the FR Floyd Rose model. The Swamp Ash lends the whole thing a touch of class as well.

The 7 string Banshee lets you tune low as well as scream hard up high.

It’s great to see Schecter offer high performance metal/rock guitars in such refined finishes. The Swamp Ash on the new 2016 Banshees is a real beauty to behold, contrasted nicely by an Ebony fretboard and Black Chrome hardware. The side dot markers are glow in the dark for practicality and that little guitar geek flourish you expect from high end shred machines.

When it comes to the electronics and hardware the Banshee range have got all the fiendish devices you would expect, including 6,7 & 8 string versions. Floyd Rose/Sustainiac setups are available on the 6/7 stringers, for endless sustain and divebomb action. Plus Grover tuners, Schecter’s own USA SuperCharger pickups and a neck so gloriously fast it defies at least 3 fundamental laws of physics.
