Schecter USA CET 50th Anniversary Electric Guitar - Golden Anniversary | No Limit Guitar Co
The Schecter USA Custom Shop CET 50th Anniversary is an exceptionally rare collector's instrument—number 14 of only 50 guitars crafted to commemorate Schecter's five-decade legacy. This premium electric guitar combines master-grade tonewoods with custom-voiced pickups to deliver professional-level performance for discerning players. Built entirely in Schecter's Southern California Custom Shop, this limited-edition instrument offers the refined playability and tonal versatility that serious guitarists demand.
Product Overview
The CET 50th Anniversary features an ultra-light Swamp Ash body crowned with a stunning 5A Quilted Maple top and distinctive Walnut center accent, finished in the exclusive Golden Anniversary colorway. This carefully selected tonewood pairing delivers exceptional resonance while maintaining a comfortable playing weight of just 7.57 pounds. The premium construction ensures optimal tonal transfer from string to body, creating rich harmonic complexity across the entire frequency spectrum.
The bolt-on neck construction pairs a Master-Grade Roasted Flamed Maple neck with a Macassar Ebony fretboard, providing smooth, effortless playability up and down the 25.5-inch scale length. The custom 'C' neck profile measures 0.825" at the first fret and 0.865" at the twelfth fret, offering familiar comfort for extended playing sessions. Twenty-two Jescar stainless steel frets on a 14-inch radius fretboard ensure precise intonation and lasting durability, while the 1.67-inch GraphTech Black Tusq nut provides excellent string spacing and sustain.
Custom-voiced SuperRock and Monstertone 50th Anniversary pickups deliver an expansive tonal palette ranging from crystalline cleans to commanding overdrive. The intuitive master volume and tone controls feature coil-splitting functionality via pull-pot activation, offering single-coil clarity alongside full humbucker power. Premium hardware including the Gotoh 510 bridge and Schecter Hipshot staggered locking tuners ensures rock-solid tuning stability and precise intonation, making this instrument equally at home in the studio or on stage.
