Schecter Guitar Research Sullivan King Banshee-6 FR-S Electric Guitar Obsidian Blood
Description
The Schecter Sullivan King Banshee 6 FR-S electric guitar is built for today's genre-bending musicians. This precision instrument from the rock and EDM artist Sullivan King and Schecter offers warm, resonant tones and smooth, fast playability. With the Schecter Sullivan King Banshee 6 FR-S, you get versatile tonal options, stellar tuning stability and a sleek, eye-catching design.
Resonant Swamp Ash Body and Maple Neck
At the heart of this Banshee is a lightweight swamp ash body with a 3-piece maple neck. The ash gives you clear, projecting tone and maple provides snap and brightness. For rock-solid stability, Schecter reinforces the neck with two carbon fiber rods. This prevents the neck from warping and makes tuning more reliable.
Extra Fast Neck Profile Enhances Playability
The Sullivan King Banshee 6 FR-S features an ultrathin C neck profile that plays smooth and fast. It glides effortlessly up and down the neck, increasing accuracy and speed. The slim profile gives your fretting hand more room to maneuver. Combined with the compound 12—16" radius fingerboard, you get a feeling of immediacy that enhances complex lead playing.
High Gain Schecter Apocalypse Pickup With Punchy Tones
The Schecter Sullivan King Banshee 6 FR-S is armed with a hot-rodded Schecter USA Apocalypse humbucker in the bridge position. This high output pickup serves up aggressive lead tones, massive distortion and thunderous low end. From chugging metal riffs to synth-like textures, the Apocalypse pickup gives you the output and articulation needed for hard-hitting performances.
Sustainiac Neck Pickup Provides Infinite Sustain
Switch over to the Sustainiac pickup in the neck position to unlock endless sustain. The Sustainiac pickup senses your playing dynamics and continues ringing out notes well past their natural decay. You can even bring ringing notes back with a touch of the strings. For lead playing, the Sustainiac pickup lets you craft infinitely singing leads. It also fattens up chords and adds texture to riffs.
Floyd Rose Tremolo for Expressive Techniques
This signature Banshee guitar comes loaded with a Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo bridge and tailpiece. The 1500 Series Floyd Rose gives you the same tuning stability and flutter-free dive bombs as the original. The locking nut also ensures you stay in tune, no matter how wild you get. Overall, it's a reliable system that lets your creativity flow freely.
Visually Striking With an "Obsidian Blood" Finish
The Banshee 6 FR-S makes a bold visual statement with its deep "Obsidian Blood" finish. The striking look perfectly complements the guitar's immense tonal capabilities. Plug in and let your creativity run wild.
