Schecter Omen Elite-8 Multiscale 8-string Electric Guitar - Black Cherry Burst

The Schecter Omen Elite-8 Multiscale electric guitar is an instrument designed to fully harness its 8-string potential, with every aspect optimized for exceptional performance. From the neck to the pickups to the scale length, this axe is engineered to deliver uncompromising results.

At the heart of the Omen Elite-8 is its innovative 25.5–27.5-inch multiscale design, which allows for even the lowest drop-tuned chug with ideal string tension and intonation across the entire fingerboard. This unique scale length ensures that players can fully explore the extended range of an 8-string guitar without sacrificing playability or tone.

The fast thin "C" profile of the neck, combined with the rosewood fingerboard's 24 jumbo frets and a flat 20-inch radius, create a playing experience that is both comfortable and conducive to modern metal technicality. This ergonomic design supports increased speed and precision, enabling musicians to push the boundaries of their performance.

Visually, the Omen Elite-8 is a stunner, with a gorgeous burl-topped mahogany body that exudes a timeless elegance. But this guitar is more than just a pretty face – it's a workhorse, loaded with two of Schecter's Diamond Heretic humbuckers, a pair of pickups specifically engineered to harness the full potential of an 8-string instrument.

These pickups are optimized to deliver brutal 8-string riffage, cutting lead tones, and sparkling cleans with endless articulation. Whether you're seeking crushing down-tuned chords, soaring leads, or crystalline clean passages, the Omen Elite-8 is more than capable of meeting your needs.

Of course, you can always tune your favorite 6-string (or standard-scale 8-string) down near the tonal depths of the Omen Elite-8, but why settle for compromise when you can have an instrument that's fully optimized for the task at hand? With its meticulously designed features and components, the Schecter Omen Elite-8 Multiscale electric guitar is the ultimate tool for musicians seeking to explore the boundless potential of the 8-string format.
