Schecter Hellraiser C-1 Electric Guitar - Black Cherry | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The Schecter Hellraiser C-1 is a high-output electric guitar built for players who demand serious tone and reliability from their instrument. Its mahogany body paired with a quilted maple top delivers a commanding midrange with a sweet, articulate top end — a combination purpose-built for hard rock and metal. Available now at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls, this left-handed model is ready for the player who means business.
Product Overview
The Hellraiser C-1 is constructed around a solid mahogany body topped with a stunning quilted maple cap finished in Black Cherry polyester. The result is both visually striking and tonally rich, with the mahogany providing natural warmth and resonance while the maple top adds clarity and definition. The Black Cherry finish gives this guitar a bold, distinctive look that stands out on any stage.
The three-piece mahogany neck joins the body via a set-neck joint for maximum sustain and feel, finished with a 14-inch radius rosewood fingerboard featuring 24 extra-jumbo frets and abalone Gothic cross inlays. The neck profile, nut width of 1.653 inches, and 25.5-inch scale length combine to deliver a playing experience that is both comfortable and precise for technically demanding styles.
Electronics are handled by a pair of active EMG pickups — an EMG 81TW at the bridge and an EMG 89 at the neck — driven through push/pull volume controls that expand your tonal palette. The TonePros Tune-O-Matic bridge with through-body string construction adds further sustain and intonation stability, while Schecter locking tuners keep everything locked in pitch.
Ideal For
- Hard rock and metal guitarists seeking high-output active pickups with versatile voicing options
- Left-handed players looking for a premium, well-specified electric guitar built to professional standards
- Stage performers who need reliable tuning stability and a visually commanding instrument
- Recording guitarists who want the classic EMG 81 attack and the warmth of an Alnico V neck pickup in one guitar
- Players at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls searching for a serious step up in tone and build quality
Key Features
Active EMG Pickup System The EMG 81TW at the bridge offers the iconic high-output, articulate sound of the classic EMG 81, with a push/pull switch to access a single-coil mode for a cleaner, more open tone. The neck position EMG 89 uses Alnico V magnets to deliver a powerful, warm sound reminiscent of the EMG 85.
Three-Piece Mahogany Neck The three-piece neck construction enhances structural rigidity and long-term stability, reducing the risk of warping or twisting over time. Combined with the set-neck joint, it also contributes to the guitar's excellent resonance and sustain.
TonePros TOM Bridge with Through-Body Construction The TonePros Tune-O-Matic bridge is a locking design that eliminates saddle and post movement for consistent intonation and tone transfer. String-through-body construction extends the string's speaking length behind the bridge, adding sustain and liveliness to every note.
Schecter Locking Tuners Locking tuners reduce string slippage at the post, keeping the guitar in tune through heavy playing and aggressive technique. They also make string changes faster and more straightforward.
Graph Tech XL Black Tusq Nut The synthetic Tusq nut provides consistent string spacing and smooth, bind-free string movement during tuning — a detail that contributes significantly to tuning stability alongside the locking tuners.
