Tim Kerr

Tim Kerr picked up his Schecter Diamond Deluxe 5 lefty from a secondhand shop for AU$250. It has a 35" scale, 2-band active EQ, and, according to Kerr, a beautiful sound.They couldn't get it to make a noise,” he says. “I took it home, opened it up, and saw that the battery clip was corroded.
