Schecter Tempest 50th Anniversary Collection Electric Guitar
Celebrating half a century of relentless guitar innovation, the Schecter Tempest 50th Anniversary Collection Electric Guitar is a stunning tribute to the brand's boutique roots and high-octane future. It takes the iconic, double-cutaway Tempest silhouette and supercharges it with premium tonewoods, scorching exclusive electronics, and a playing experience so smooth you will have a hard time putting it down.
A Tonal Titan Built to Resonate
Great tone starts at the core, and this guitar is crafted from the ground up to sing. The combination of carefully selected woods and custom-voiced electronics delivers a massive, versatile sound that easily handles delicate vintage cleans and crushing high-gain distortion alike.
Resonant Swamp Ash Body: The foundation of this instrument provides a lively, balanced character. Swamp ash delivers clear highs, strong mids, and huge lows, giving your chords incredible note separation and your solos a thick, punchy presence.
Anniversary Edition Pickups: At the heart of this collection are two exclusive humbuckers. The Sunset Strip Anniversary Edition bridge pickup brings searing modern aggression, while the Pasadena Classic Anniversary Edition neck pickup offers vintage warmth and clarity. Together, they create a vast tonal palette worthy of Schecter’s sonic legacy.
TonePros Locking Tune-O-Matic Bridge: Forget about annoying rattles or tuning slips. This rock-solid bridge, paired with a string-thru-body design, anchors your strings directly into the wood, transferring maximum resonance and sustaining your notes for days.
Playability Pushed to the Limit
A guitar can sound amazing, but if it fights your hands, it stays in the case. Schecter engineered the neck of the 50th Anniversary Tempest to feel like a natural extension of your body, ensuring unmatched speed and comfort from the first fret all the way to the top.
Ultra Access Thru-Neck: Constructed from a gorgeous multi-ply of maple, walnut, and padauk, this thru-neck design eliminates the bulky heel block. You get effortless, unhindered reach all the way up to the highest registers for those soaring lead lines.
Ultra-Thin "C" Profile & Compound Radius: The neck profile is slim and fast, naturally fitting the curve of your hand. Paired with a 12"–16" compound radius ebony fingerboard, it allows for comfortable chording down low and choke-free, wide string bends up high.
22 X-Jumbo Stainless-Steel Frets: Steel frets take durability to the extreme. They provide a glassy, frictionless surface for your vibrato and bends, ensuring precision intonation without the wear and tear associated with traditional fret wire.
Golden Era Aesthetics and Hardware
Looks absolutely matter when you step onto a stage. The Tempest 50th Anniversary pairs its aggressive performance with undeniably classy appointments, ensuring it catches the spotlight just as well as it cuts through the mix.
Offset Brass Ring Inlays: Bold and distinct, these eye-catching inlays pop against the dark, slick ebony fingerboard, giving the instrument a high-end, custom-shop vibe.
Carved Top with Black Binding: The elegantly carved top hugs your forearm comfortably, while the sleek black binding outlines the body and neck, framing the guitar's striking finish with a sharp, tuxedo-like aesthetic.
TonePros M-Series Locking Tuners: Fast string changes and locked-in pitch are the names of the game. These premium tuners bite down on your strings, meaning you can dig in hard on stage without drifting out of tune mid-song.
More Than Just an Anniversary Axe
The Schecter Tempest 50th Anniversary isn't just a nod to the past; it is a full-throttle leap into the future of guitar playing. It blends gorgeous craftsmanship with the kind of muscular tone that commands attention, offering a professional-grade instrument that is built to inspire your next great riff.
