Schecter Blackjack ATX C8 8-String Electric Guitar

Get Low… Way Low!
The 8 String Blackjack C8 ATX Guitar from Schecter provides an ultra low playscape for the player who wants their guitar to growl. Excellent for dark metal and other similar styles, the C8 offers hard and heavy tones with high output due to its active Seymour Duncan Black Out humbuckers. Utilizing a mahogany body, 3-piece mahogany neck and Schecter's Ultra-access neck joint, the C8 ATX maybe a behemoth, but it plays like no other.

  • Mahogany Body with aged multi ply binding
  • 3-piece Mahogany Set-Neck with Ultra Access
  • 24 Fret, ebony fingerboard

ATX 8 Aged White
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Not a single flaw that I could see out of the box, and I gave it a good inspection. Feels solid, doesn't feel cheap.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I've owned it for a month and it is still in the same perfect condition it came in out of the box. Schecter has really impressed me.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
This is probably the only 8 string guitar that could ever satisfy me, it is so close to perfection to my taste it is incredible.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Feels solid, not heavy but not light. The neck is ridiculously fast and thinner than the normal Hellraiser neck. Best Schecter I've ever played.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Tone is definitely Dark, but almost has a bright quality as well. The low end booms thanks to the mahogany. The Blackouts could stand to have gain control on their pre-amp, they're just a little too hot.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
The Aged White is the most gorgeous white I've ever seen, it is a beautiful finish.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
95% perfect, just needed a minor adjustment. Intonation was spot on.

Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
This guitar looks heavy, however it's very light in nature. It's very cozy to play. It showed up at my home with a little bit of high action. I had it setup by my guitar tech, and problem solved. The beefy 8 strings are sooo awesome. There's no flub to these stings. The satin finish feels so smooth and almost like skin.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I've only had this thing for a short time, but I'm totally sure that It will last a good while. I'm very happy thus far.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
This guitar is totally hip and comfortable to play. Looking to turn some heads and ears? Check this thing out.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
The overall feel of this guitar is just pure power. Hands down.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
I love the snappiness of the ebony fretboard. I wouldn't go back to rosewood ever.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
You have to feel it to believe how smooth this thing is. I'm in love with it. It looks like a stealth fighter.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
The action was not bad. It was setup at the bridge very well. The hipshot is total brutal and comfortable and easy to palm mute. I'd recommend having a setup performed on this guitar. They have it setup for someone who doesn't like fret buzz. I' like it very low with just a bit of buzz.
