About Schecter Sun Valley SS III

High Performance and High Class
The Sun Valley Super Shredder III solidbody electric guitar put's an eye-catching and sonically flexible twist on Schecter's super-style Sun Valley platform. The guitar's mahogany body is capped with deeply figured maple for a distinctly elegant appearance. Schecter then loaded the Sun Valley Super Shredder III with an HSS-combination of EMG's ground-breaking Retro Active pickups, which deliver plenty of output while retaining vintage clarity. And of course, the guitar's fast neck, sculpted heel and Floyd Rose tremolo ensure the Sun Valley Super Shredder III is ready for your most demanding techniques.

Hot-rodded construction with class
The Schecter Sun Valley Super Shredder III solidbody electric guitar exudes a top-shelf and high-performance attitude. It's black hardware and electronics beautifully silhouette against an S-style mahogany body with a deeply figured maple top. A bolt-on hard rock maple neck features a fast Thin-C neck contour and a 24-fret 14" radius maple fretboard. And the Sun Valley Super Shredder III's neck heel is beautifully contoured, allowing unrestricted access to the guitar's highest frets.

EMG Retro Active electronics
Schecter tapped EMG Pickups to supply the Sun Valley Super Shredder III's horsepower. Their Retro Active electronics utilize a specially designed active preamp system and passive-style coils for a tone that boasts vintage clarity with modern power. The onboard preamp treats each coil of the pickups separately. This helps remove low-mid frequencies that can muddy up your signal. And a simple-to-use 2-knob control layout works in conjunction with the 5-way blade switch to access a wide variety of tones.

Schecter-exclusive Floyd Rose Trem
Schecter and Floyd rose have partnered to bring you the Floyd Rose Hot Rod double-locking tremolo for a new level of control and stability. Floyd Rose has long been one of the best double-locking tremolo sellers and the Hot Rod is a specialized take on their iconic design that you will only find on select Schecter guitars. The addition of this trem is another appointment that prepares the Sun Valley Super Shredder III solidbody electric guitar for your best playing.
