Schecter USA Custom Shop Sunset Custom II 24 FR Electric Guitar - Trans Black Burst (with Floyd Rose)

Schecter USA Custom Shop Sunset Custom II 24 FR Electric Guitar – Black Burst (Floyd Rose) | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls

The Schecter USA Custom Shop Sunset Custom II 24 FR is a masterclass in American boutique guitar building — handcrafted by Schecter's finest luthiers at their Sun Valley, California facility and backed by a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Schecter President Michael Ciravolo. Built in 2026, serial number 26-06005, and weighing just 7.50 lbs., this is the Floyd Rose-equipped variant of the Sunset Custom II 24 — a significant distinction that transforms the platform from a fixed-bridge instrument into a fully expressive, pitch-manipulating performance machine without sacrificing any of the Custom Shop's hallmark build quality. A .25" flame maple top over a swamp ash body in a stunning Trans Black Burst finish, African ebony fingerboard, Jescar 57110S extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, Schecter Pasadena Combo H/H pickups, black Floyd Rose tremolo, and Schecter locking tuners in black — every specification on this instrument reflects the deliberate, quality-first decisions that define the Schecter Custom Shop at its best.

Product Overview

The Trans Black Burst finish is what first commands attention — a deep, saturated black that fades dramatically outward from a bleached, near-natural center, revealing the .25" flame maple top's tight, horizontal figure in a way that shifts and shimmers under any light source. The burst creates a visual depth that still photography struggles to fully capture — the flame lines catch and refract light differently from the black edges than from the lighter center, producing a guitar that looks different from every angle and under every lighting condition. The black hardware throughout — Floyd Rose bridge, Schecter locking tuners, pickup hardware, and control hardware — creates a cohesive, visually unified instrument that ties the dark burst edges together with matching hardware in a way that chrome or gold alternatives would not achieve.

The .25" flame maple top over swamp ash body is the same premium tonewood pairing found across Schecter's highest-tier Custom Shop Sunset instruments — a combination chosen for the specific tonal result of swamp ash's bright, articulate, open low-end character enhanced by the sustain and tonal complexity of a substantial flame maple cap. Swamp ash is one of the most tonally valued body woods in electric guitar building for its balanced, sparkly, resonant character, and at .25" thickness the flame maple top contributes meaningfully to the instrument's tone rather than serving as a cosmetic veneer.

The Schecter Pasadena Combo H/H pickup configuration delivers the dual humbucker tonal architecture — both the bridge and neck positions loaded with Schecter's Pasadena Combo humbucker, providing the warm, full, hum-free tonal character across both positions that suits the Floyd Rose platform particularly well. The Floyd Rose tremolo system is the defining hardware specification of this FR variant — a double-locking bridge and nut system that allows extreme pitch manipulation, from subtle vibrato through dramatic dive-bombs and pull-ups, with reliable, consistent return to pitch that standard tremolo systems cannot match. The Schecter locking tuners in black work in concert with the Floyd Rose locking nut to ensure tuning stability throughout.

The African ebony fingerboard at 14" radius provides a glassy, fast playing surface with crisp articulate note definition — ebony's density and smoothness being among the most prized fingerboard characteristics in professional instrument building. Twenty-four Jescar 57110S extra-jumbo stainless steel frets deliver effortless bending, long-term durability, and the smooth, consistent feel that professional players demand from custom shop fretwork.
