A Radical Shape with Professional Refinements
The Schecter Avenger Standard (SKU #3963) is for the player who wants to break away from the crowd.1 While the “Avenger” body shape is often associated with metal royalty (most notably Synyster Gates), this Standard series model strips away the gothic excess to reveal a stunning, classy instrument. It combines a radically distinct silhouette with high-end features like a roasted maple neck and a flamed maple top, offering boutique specs at a working musician’s price.2
Aggressive Beauty
This guitar strikes a balance between “pointy” shredder vibes and classic elegance.
- The Finish: The Blood Burst finish is applied over a Flamed Maple top.3 The deep red gradient fades into a dark edge, highlighting the tiger-stripe grain of the maple for a look that is both fiery and sophisticated.
- The Shape: The Avenger body is unique to Schecter—distinct, sharp, and perfectly balanced.4 Despite its radical curves, it sits comfortably against the body whether you are standing or sitting.
- The Inlays: The Rosewood fretboard features White Pearloid Reverse Wave inlays, a signature directional design that adds a sense of motion and speed to the neck.5
Versatile, High-Octane Tone
Don’t let the passive pickups fool you; this guitar is built to scream.
- The Engine: It is equipped with a pair of Schecter Diamond Standard Humbuckers with sleek black metal covers.6 These pickups are voiced for clarity and punch. They handle high-gain distortion with tight precision but remain articulate and warm when playing clean passages.7
- The Core: The body is crafted from Mahogany, which provides a deep, resonant low-end growl that complements the snap of the maple top.8
Next-Level Feel
The “Standard” series upgrade shines brightest in the neck.
- Roasted Maple: The neck has been roasted to remove moisture, resulting in a beautiful caramel color and incredible stability.9 It is resistant to temperature changes and warping, making it a reliable road warrior.10
- Speed Profile: The Thin ‘C’ profile is satin-smooth, allowing your hand to glide effortlessly up and down the neck.11
- The Specs: With a 25.5″ scale, 14″ radius, and 24 Jumbo frets, you have a modern, flat surface ideal for fast riffing and wide bends.12
Rock-Solid Hardware
Stability is key for any performance instrument. The Tune-O-Matic bridge with a Stop Tailpiece ensures excellent sustain and precise intonation.13 Combined with a Graphite nut and reliable Schecter tuners, the Avenger Standard holds its tuning even under heavy attack.14
