Schecter Guitar Research Announces New Damien Elite 6, 7 & 8 String Guitars

The Damien Elite collection offers quality at affordable prices

Los Angeles, CA (December 12, 2009) -- Schecter Guitars presents the Damien Elite collection. Built upon the success of its older siblings and redesigned specifically for the intermediate player, the Damien Elite series meets the demands of the price-conscious player looking for high-end components in an affordable guitar.

Featuring a Mahogany body with bolt-on maple neck, Rosewood 24x Jumbo fretboard and available with an optional Floyd Rose tremolo or as string thru body design bridge by TonePros. With metal in mind, the EMG-HZ H4/H4A pickups provide plenty of sonic control for tight low ends, clear highs and a noticeable clarity in the mid range. Black Pearl Bat inlays, Grover tuners and a simple Vol/Tone/3-way configuration compliment the Satin Black finish.

Schecter puts the 25.5” scale Damien Elite 6 string at $729 MSRP, the 26.5” scale Damien Elite 7 string at $799 MSRP and Damien Elite 8 string at $869 MSRP. The Floyd Rose is a $70 upgrade. The 25.5” scale Damien Elite Solo-6 at $729 MSRP is only available as a 6 string and does not offer the Floyd Rose. All models are available in a choice of three colors, Crimson Red (CRED), Dark Metallic Blue (DMB) and See-Thru Black (STBLK).
