You two again. Your bankrupting me. Do flutes or something
😂😂😂
What a about a mouth organ !! It's costing me a fortune as well!! 😃😃 update !! I've just ordered one !! Got it for 399 😃 dearer than a mouth organ though 😮😮!!
😂😂😂
XD
One of the best guitars I’ve played, the stock pickups sound surprisingly warm and the neck is buttery smooth
How is the clean tone of this guitar?
@@shouryabhattacharjee6220 really good! I own one of these and its really versatile. The clean tone is superb and the coil tap makes it crazy
c6 plus or this omen extreme?
@@Bryan-wz5vb Depends on what you need. The omen 6 extreme is versatile(has coil tapping) and comes with the same pickups as the c6 plus. So i feel the omen 6 extreme offers more and would go for it.
is it good for fast runs and shred type stuff
The more tame looking schecters are my favorites. They look, sound and play amazing for a great price.
hell yeah, I have two that are both under 500. I want a third. they just sound and feel great
TeapotMullah I really can’t,
Chris Nagy yea so the omen series, PT, the new nick Johnston model, and my favorite the sun valley super shredder.
The super shredder comes in at about $630, they have really nice high quality pickups but most importantly stainless steel frets that feel great to play. It’s basically a charvel San dimas clone but $200-$300 cheaper.
I love Schecter but cannot see myself buying one all blinged out with inlays. They look nice but just not for me.
Bought my Son the Omen Extreme 6 a few weeks ago.....he digs it alot and he has a few....Stratocater, Les Paul, Inbanez Jem Jr, Jackson and an Epiphone. He said I did good LOL!
Schecters are the best guitars I've ever Owned and I've been playing for years. I had alot of different guitars. And schecter is by far the most Superior
I just want to say it is always a complete joy watching these videos. Even if it's for a product I have no interest in, I am at the very least entertained. Thank you, bright point of my Sunday
Jerry's Solo Adventures Agreed!
Same
Jimi Hendrix could make a 99$ Wal-Mart guitar starter pack sound unbelievable. The player makes the guitar. HOLY SHIT, the solo by the guy with hair right before he handed it off was amazing, y'all are both supa 🔥 🔥 🔥
Great video as always. You should keep Mickey around permanently. He adds another dimension to the discussion. Thumbs up, Mickey.
Anyway, I just recently bought the Schecter C-6 Plus after watching your video and then going to the guitar store. That's my price point. As a bedroom guitarist who works as a cook that guitar suits my needs and is a helluva lot of fun to play. And It's my first
Schecter and I love the feel of it.
My friend, I was looking at a c6 deluxe for my first guitar. How do you like yours now that you've had it for awhile? Any suggestions?
how is the action height? is it good? or need to adjust lower?
I'm a twelve year and I like to learn about guitars thank you for a very informative vid👍🏻
I love my Schecters. It took me years to take a chance on them, and I was super impressed.
I play black gospel and i was surprised this guitar sounds so well with that style of music. This guitar really can do everything.
I bought this guitar yesterday, ITS AMAZING!! I tried modifying the tone on my amp a little bit, and once you get it just right it sounds AMAZING. Clean sounds are amazing especially with the humbucker split, distortion sounds awesome, great lead sound, Bang for buck people🙌🙌
Nerd Cotibe Year. This guitar sound is so good. I think too . and I LIKE SOUND.
That's what I like to hear. This guitar sounds perfect
This was my first guitar. It's super solid. I got mine in a steal $330 USD on Amazon.
I felt like the sound was boxy too. Not enough note separation with the e and a strings. But then i threw some 10-52 strings on it and put it in drop C and it came alive
Lower-end Schecter's have always been impressive in my experience.
...Was said by no woman ever
just playing peace!
When you need METAL!!! on a budget... 🤘😎🎸
I own this guitar, a 2008 model, I really like it. It reminds me of a gibson les paul in sound and feel, but with jumbo frets, 25,5" Scale Length, but that actually stays in tune! Doesnt have the same sustain as LP (still good sustain mind you) ,the neck pickup cant sound the same as a 22 fret guitar can, but if you adjust it correctly it can be a good lead tone. It sounds and plays much better than my epiphone standard lp, which has obvious tuning issues and sounds very bright.
A lot of guitars that have this deep type of sound (les pauls, sgs) are usually guitars with tuning issues because of the headstock design, so these schecter guitars are a rare find, good for who wants the bridge pickup fat rock tone.
You can use the stock pickup for grungy hard rock tones, sludgy metal, although I believe changing the potenciometers for 1M pots would really help. In my case, I kept the 500k pots, swapped the bridge pickup for a seymour duncan distortion, the neck for a jazz, and the sound is very, very good, easily my best sounding guitar. Dont use this guitar with dark pickups,
Would wish: A slightly thinner neck, and 22 frets so I can have that classic Lp neck sound. Otherwise i'm pretty happy, definately my favorite rock/metal guitar that I own.
Hi, yours has a floyd rose or is like this one? To me... The floyd doesn t sound this deep in other videos. good resumed review thank u.
David Barrel don’t get Floyd rose
I love Schecter guitars and especially this Omen extreme. I have the vintage sunburst myself. I have not put anything into this guitar but what came with it. It's been played through an Orange crush mini amp due to my living in an apartment setting. I also play in a band so it's been played in clubs to medium sized venues. I just love this guitar. I also have 3 other Schecters.
Nicht böse gemeint aber ich hätte niemals gedacht dass er so gut spielen kann! Respekt. Wirkt mehr so, als würde er dir alles zustimmen. Klasse Video wie immer... ich glaube du machst die einzigen Videos auf UA-cam die man sich auch bei einer Länge von ü40min anschauen kann. ✌️
On the day this posted I was shoveling snow off my driveway this red rocker looks like it would melt it off on seconds 🎸🔥😀
The comment at 04:34 - regarding Schecter guitars sounding and feeling 'heavy'... I totally agree. I have a wide variety of guitars (6, 7 and 8 strings) and by far the heaviest in physical weight is my Shecter Omen 7. Weighs a ton. You can feel that weight in the sound when you crank the amp too, as you described. Nailed it on the head!
Schecter makes some of the best guitars no matter what price point. I bought a diamond series omen-6 in the mid 2000’s and only paid a little over $250 new. The frets are enormous and are the biggest frets of any guitar I own. I believe it came with Grover tuners (Can’t remember if I changed tuners or they are stock) changed out the plastic nut and swapped pickups for EMG 81,85 also had to file the fret ends. To this day that guitar is my number 1 for playability and only paid $250 for it.
I have not checked out their current guitars but if you can pick up a mid 2000’s do it
That pug shirt is one of the dopest things I know.
It's so realistic
*casually headbangs with tea in right hand*
Great guitarists, great guitars, Mikel, I didn't expect to find you outside of guitarists info ... Congratulations on the video!
Thanks mate! It was so ice visiting Henning! Can't wait to visit him again! It's been a while!
In other word: THOMANN, STRETCH THE STRINGS!
I'm 12 years old and I'm firm but not too sticky. So I just bought this guitar and hope to get the sticky 🤘🏼
Without a doubt best quality you can get for the price
Much Pug love here!
I got one of those super cheap and love it! Put some Tesla Opus-4 pickups in it and it Rocks!
The guy had won it and didn't play guitar. Big win for me!!!!
I think I fell in love with this guitar !
I just bought that same guitar but with the Floyd Rose. I love the look, it's a beautiful guitar! I bought it used and it didn't come with the owners manual.
I am a big fan of schecter, for the value verses price point I think they have settled into a sweet spot with some of there 400 to 800 offerings.
I currently use an omen 6 extreme fr as one of my main guitars but that’s because the tone and feel fit what I like to play and i am not a “metal” player. This isn’t a shredder guitar, it can play some metal but it’s not a metal guitar really either. It’s a solid hard rock guitar and may even lean into a contemporary sound. If you want a lot of glistening on your speed demon runs it won’t do that but it does do almost everything a classic guitar “hero” might want to do.
If you want to dig into it you can get a good raunchy hard rock rock rhythm and good lead tones but to me it’s best for staying a bit shy of that particular if comparing to some Ibanez or Jackson’s which have a bit flatter neck radius so are “faster” pick a little cleaner. Since that’s not my style of playing I don’t really fault the guitar for not being able to do it. That’s not what it’s built for.
In my opinion it is very versatile in what it can do. The looks contrast with the personality. Whenever choosing any instrument it’s best to match what it does with what you do. It’s versatile and can pull off a tone of tones well but for under 700 or more I would put it up against some Strats that cost twice as much and I will make some enemies by saying I think it is a better overall guitar than many PRS SE models. Couple weeks back I played with a fusion jazz outfit and despite looking out of place among the classically styled jazz instruments it held its own. But stuff like old Van Halen, deep purple and hard classic rock it finds its feet.
I would not recommend to metal players as is it can be modified for not too much more and fit that genre well but to me if that’s your thing and you want that tone and playing experience just buy the shred machine that’s what they are made for. Same with thrashy fast metal rhythm just buy the guitar that does that .
My back ground are les Paul’s, teles and Strats so coming from that end I like that it is a little raunchier when coaxed but can still settle into my familiar sweet spot. By no means my most expensive and it’s certainly not my best equipped but it doesn’t need to be because it’s fun to play and does what I ask of it all without having to jack up my insurance premium every time I bring it to a gig.
I have one of these but I sold the pickups off in an Epiphone Explorer I had and fitted a Seymour Duncan Full Shred / Jazz set from a Blackjack SLS. The Blackjack got Bare Knuckle Black Hawks
One of the best guitars I’ve played. My last one.
Great review guys. Im buying this guitar in the near future. This video view was my research tool. I was leaning towards this one & an Ibanez (both lefties). Mind made up now. Just got to find a shop in adelaide that stocks it. Thanks for a great review guys. Awesome.
Glenn is the best. He should be in all you're videos!!
*Simple!! Those are Schecter humbuckers. Not EMG. The high-end Schecters come with an 81 in the bridge placement.*
If you don't like the pickups, they recently launched the Omen Elite, which gets upgraded to their Diamond Heretic pickups.
Had this one in mind for a while to make an extra addition guitars to fill in that drop D spot , got some strats and LTD EC-256 I would never buy on my own accord it was given to me . Much more happier with the schecter omen 6 extreme for the price, exactly what I was looking for for the price so I can sell my schecter gryphon . Badass video guys!
I like it and guitar center had it on sale for 350 but also has the C-6 Elite on sale for 230. After looked up the specs and the share most essential components like Diamond Plus pickups/rose wood fingerboard/neck profile..etc. I bought the C-6. right now they have the blue and the magenta color on sale for 300. They are happy most with heavy sounds, you are right. The rosewood has fine grain and the extra jumbo frets are mirror shine and smooth like butter. Thanks for sharing.
Loving seeing the Schecter series of videos! Makes a lovely change from Fender/Gibson/PRS videos! But, does it do blues?!?!
I love videos on affordable guitars. I love it more when it’s demoed thru a cheap Amp only just the way a new player would be equipped
I rather liked the sound of this one. A bit of quackiness and a bit of bell. Thanks again for the videos, and the animals at the end. Peace :)
The top is not a veneer it's an actual quilted Maple top the nut is a graphtech tusq nut
I have one of these and it plays and sounds great as a dedicated hardtail guitar its pretty damn good
Got a secondhand for just $79. Absolutely great alongside with my schecter demon.
Dude what $79 - thats ridiculous. Its 2023 and I'm lookin at getting a new one for ~$700 (CAN) unreal deal you got - used or not thats nuts.
Was it in good shape?
@@stephanlepage2537 I just bought one yesterday, in see through black.. $679.99 cdn, same price no matter what store I was checking out. I wanted a Hellraiser, but seeing as I'm just getting back into playing, the Hellraiser can wait, especially at $1600....
Hello there! I am interested in getting a Schecter Demon... How's the guitar overall? Do I go for it?
Great guitar, ive had mine almost 5 years and played it stock for quite awhile even though i normally upgrade everything in sight as soon as i get a guitar. Eventually i did upgrade the pickups for a set of JB/59's and the bridge for a locking tone pros and the tuners for locking chrome open back hipshot tuners etc. But again that wasn't cause i felt i really needed to i just enjoy playing this guitar so much i couldn't help but to put a little more money into it to really have it shine and become even more versatile. I found it much more versatile then Henning but i use my volume and tone controls like mad and considering theres two volumes and a push pull tone for coil split you can really get a ton of different sounds. When i switched out the pups i rewired it to have the push pulls on each volume pot so i could split the neck and bridge separate from one another which has turned into my favorite feature. In the middle position with one split and the other in HB mode it sounds really spanky or fat depending on which you have split. Anyways over all this is a really great guitar. The only downside is the cheesy name "Extreme" lol but trust me anyone who can play well and set up a guitar will find this guitar to be very inspiring and comfortable to play. I have the see thru black version and that with the maple neck and rosewood fret board looks great. They recently released and blue and purple version that look good also if thats more your speed. Anyways just thought id thrown in my 2 cents cause if you dont have a ton to spend and want a quality guitar i highly recommend it. If you buy a big brand guitar at this price your getting their bottom of the barrel guitars but with Schecter having lower price to higher quality ratios it really doesnt make sense to me to buy a shitty guitar with a Fender or Gibson logo when i could have a solid guitar with some cool features that inspires me to play with a logo that says "I didnt have a ton of money to spend but i buy smart and I take my playing seriously".
I have the electric magenta extreme omen 6. Bought it yesterday should i keep or get a limited edition acoustic I've been looking for and get the omen later. It was 100 dollars off so 300
You are a visionary my good sir.
my only guitar is 2011 Schecter Omen Extreme, the blue one.
this guitar always stay in tune and the tuners are smooth, maybe Graphtech really helps at it.
the neck feels great, even it's a glossy neck, it doesn't feel sticky at all.
the only thing I have about this guitar is no arm contour, so I'm in love-hate relationship with my only guitar.
So glad I ran into this video, I've lost touch since your pentatonic lessons!
Schecter are damn fine 😎😎😎 beautiful guitar
Due to your review I bought one last night at reverb for a bargain of 250 euros incl. shipping to Germany ... can't wait to get this beauty. Thanks for the review guys!
I have a mitchill md 200 with just a white body the neck has no sharp frets after a complete set up it plays and sounds good you really don't need all the eye candy it's your dedication that will make you play better however I had to change the bridge pickup.
I like Schecter, surprised?
Nope, many people who really experienced Schecter are fell in love with them. Owning Hellraiser C-1 for 10 years, I'd never trade it for anything. Even now I'm saving up for Ibanez RG Prestige.
I love Schecter. I now own 4 of them. They are the best guitars I've ever Owned. Hands down
schecter seven I prefer Schecter to Ibanez . Seems like you get a little more quality for the same money than all other makes.
You know; it does have a tone control. Maybe you had it turned down. But great review; you guys are funny!
They also have the Omen Extreme S-II, basically the same guitar and price point, except with more of an SG-style body (albeit with one horn taller like a Strat). Couple other little differences, it only has one volume knob, which Henning said he prefers in the video. Also the neck is still bolt-on, but it doesn't have that plate back there, and it's much more rounded off, so you've got a little easier upper fret access.
So this was a good video. I found it a week or so ago, and then bought one of these Omens in blood burst.
I think these omen 6,guitars sound amazing. Love the pups
You guys jam well. I dig your playing. Both have ssssstyle! I like you guys
New subscriber, I'm sold. Il send my son as well. He is 20 and can playing almost anything already. My hand are damaged but I can still play covers like sultan's of swing, fool for the city, and similar. But il never be virtuosos. As soon as I out sultan's of swing down you played it. What the hell? Lol.
Beautiful instrument. Excellent demo on metal guitar. Thanks.
I have this guitar and it is freaking Awsome. Even with the passive pups it's a beast...
Agreed, the pickups is a bit too dark, but it is a good pickup, just a bit too dark.
Brilliance in everything. Thank you!
Loved this. Can someone explain how to do the killswitch function on this model please? Love from Perth Western Australia.
My first real guitar of quality was my schecter omen 6 perfectly setup unlike any of the competitors including fender. I swapped out the stock pickups with a used set of emg 89r 81tw which are split coil emgs for 100$ but honestly the stock pickups sounded great. Just last month I upgraded from my Jackson jss 227 to a schecter kieth marrow km-7 mk-ii which has fishman pickups honestly doesn't sound or feel that much different than my omen 6 dispite the $1000 price difference.
Hey Siegfried and Roy some reason I got the seven string version and it looks way better than that I don't know why my ride looks better binding looks better I'm looking at that that looks okay but mine looks amazing and like people through pictures and stuff like I told my buddies to look up and take a look at this UA-cam channel here in a bit and see what's different between mine and yours. Mine is just Schecter Guitar Omen extreme seven. This ride with a full body binding some reason mine looks a lot better and it's not just that it has a 7-string on it although I don't know why the seven string does look better than the six but I don't know my ride seems to be more reddish couple years old 5 or 6 maybe. Check it out right now,, omen extreme 7 red transparent.
Amazing review guys thanks
I had this guitar back in 2009, it was quite heavy, and the neck had a twist. For the price, it was a cool guitar, and I liked it. However, it didn't have a veneer, I removed some paint - it was a simple sticker over the body, not a veneer. I have also replaced the bridge with a Wilkinson roller bridge. If you ask me... look for a used Japanese Jackson dinky - it's an insanely good guitar for the price.
I picked up one of these today for 329 🇺🇸 . This is my first metal guitar, normally I go for more traditional designs. It is built beautifully, and I could find a flaw...other than the pickups. When I got home and plugged it into my Marshall DSL40CR I was a little disappointed. For the price its an excellent build but I firmly believe I will be swapping pickups. It was just too cheap and played to well to pass up.
A nice guitar for the money. Looks sharp. And yes, it is made for metal in D drop. Thanx again Henning and Mickey. Animaux à la fin.
Need clarity ? Adjust pickup height
Whats the song he played at the end where he said he didnt know if its correct sounds amazing 21:08. Awesome guitar too probably buying this one
This was an absolutely awesome watch! Informative but entertaining at the same time, I'll be purchasing this bad boy next payday!!
EDIT: Following up, I bought the 7 string version and had a set of Bareknuckle Juggernauts installed. Drop the low B down to an A and good god this thing is a MONSTER to play!(in a good way haha) it's a brilliant workhorse guitar and you more than get your money's worth.
I'm looking at the 7 string version. Loving the sound.
You guys are a riot!!! I subscribed to your channel... I Like you two... I ordered one of these for $299.00 U.S.
I have the blue omen, they did last year '18. Its just like this. I love it, it's so METALLLL!!!!!!!
I would think people coming to UA-cam for guitar reviews and research are probably beginners searching out the right first guitar for them. That's why I'm here and many of the comments I read are usually from people doing the same.
Muy buena revision de esta guitarra. Terrible equipamiento y casa. Felicitaciones.
I think the pickups could do with being swapped, but it looks great.
The stock pickups are good for dark, deep and sludgy tones. I swapped the pickups on my Omen 6 Extreme for Seymour Duncan Distortion and SH-2 Jazz, the guitar now sounds A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Dont get pickups any darker than the SD Distortion, it really needs bright pickups but it shines so much there. The dark sound actually comes from the wood, the stock pickups are neither bright or dark, this guitar just needs bright pickups to really shine and boy does it ever shine.
This is very much like a Les Paul feel, and sounding guitar, but with a 25,5" scale, jumbo frets, even thicker neck than the epi lps, but with a unique feature on these type of sounding guitars... IT STAYS IN FUCKING TUNE.
Yo, that video was very successful and enjoyable, thank you for this review. If you're gonna keep continue to make bang for the buck videos my suggestion to you is LTD EC-256 -flame maple's are looking better :D-.
I've played both. I had bad experiences with all LTD guitars in tuning stability except for the horizon and the F ones.
The pickups sound very similar but the guitars are very different. Schecter has a Thick neck and heavy body, very deep sound, LTD have thin necks, thin bodies sometimes it neck dives, and definately does not stay in tune so well. The 256 does sound better with the stock pickups because the wood sound is more balanced. I ended up selling the 256 (didnt feel right or stay in tune), kept the Schecter, swapped the pickups for SD Distortion and holy hell, what a guitar sound. This guitar really loves bright pickups, just like a les paul does, in fact, its very similar to a les paul in feel, weight and neck too.
I had that guitar... it is awesome
U had?
Gotta love Mickey from Spain! I was looking at the Omen on Sweetwater. It looks really nice. The one I looked at was made of basswood with a walnut finsih but was only about $300 US. Henning if anyone watches enough they will know that you will give your honest opinion if you don't like something about the product. Nice anonymous shirt.
15:13 when your trying to impress your gf with your guitar skills
The tone through the H&K @ 19:55 is pretty awesome.
For the 550 I paid for mine...holy shit do you get your money's worth!!
Awesome demo and seems more than fair for the $$. Since you mentioned Hellraiser, and if you should ever review Schecters just for the fun of it, I wholeheartedly recommend (and would be curious to know your opinion on) the Hellraiser Hybrid. I got mine with Floyd + Sustainiac about 1.5 yrs ago and am still completely in love with it. It's got a few surprising tricks of which I will say no more, other than that playing it is a rewarding and fun experience. Probably very similar with your Apocalypse, but active. And with a Floyd. And Sustainiac. :D And since I don't say it too often, keep rockin HP!
I bought one yesterday for 300, should I return it and save up for a different higher end guitar? I was thinking of getting the syn custom. If you recommend I return it I'll get the limited edition acoustic I was eyeballing for a week now
Now I know what mr bean would look like if he had long hair and a beard and I love it
Schecter is top 5 guitar makers in my opinion I've had my hellraiser with the floyd rose for 4 years please do a review on one
Thanks for all the honest reviews of guitars at all price points. I’m mostly interested in $500 USD and below but do enjoy seeing you try out the high end stuff too. Your HB upgrade video is still one of my faves. I may have missed it, but whatever happened to your signature model?
Coming in a few weeks...
@@EytschPi42 hello , nice video I watched it over and over ....what guitar would you recomand from schecter to fill the gaps that you were talking about , no punch in the middle , not a very good high end...etc .Thanks ! And only schecters please 🤘🤘🤘,and no braking the bank🤘😂
Vicious kitty at the end, so adorable!
Is it just the video, or is this guitar really so bright in real life? On official photos it's a lot darker, but on this video it's like candy red color. What a shame if that's true, i was thinking about ordering it online in red color, but now i'm not so sure about red.
Henning u need to do more videos with Glenn. Glenn is Awsome!
Henning: "...they don't know me, they don't trust me..."
Me: *sees dog, instantly trusts him*.
Love the guitar, but I don't like matched headstock, I like or natural or black headstock. More elegant and "adult" for me.
Is there coming a video of the Nick Johnston strat from the diamond series????
Would love to see you play with it and give your "2cents" about it.
Nice review. I have this guitar in magenta. And yes when drop d it screams “daddy I’m home”. Bra what was that rid/song at 14:03??
I would love love love this with a factory-installed Sustainiac.
He wants to be a little bit closer to the top, I think he is the top. Or the guitar, given it to that amp.
The over all tone is too subdued for me, but it sounds good for metal! The nuances there are as many and diverse as your imagination allows. Lke Jazz, Blues, Classical, and so forth.
Hi,I'm from Rome, Italia. in Italy, complete and interesting videos like yours count on the fingers of one hand. i have to buy my first electric guitar... play with a Ramirez Classic, I've seen hundreds of videos on several brands, but this guitar is exciting!! at PRS levels, I hope. you recommend it for me?
Maybe you should drop the pickups?
I have this guitar. And let me just say.... U guys are 100% Right. For $400 bucks this guitar is flawless and plays like a Champ. I absolutely love it. #SchecterOmen. It's pretty much a HellRaiser with passive pickups.
I got mine for 300 newish? Off the display floor at guitar center not in box, though I have nothing. No amp etc just the guitar, should i return it? I like a7x so i figured I'd try schecter but i also like bfmv, though the Jackson guitar was 219 and it looked kind of weird. V shaped guitars are hard to hold without a strap
Doctor they’re on sale right now $300 + tax brand new
@@Taylor-dl2kr yeah, I got mine new but just wasnt in box. It was the one in the guitar stand for everyone to play and test out, should I return it and ask for one in box?
Doctor I would...or ask them to put new strings on it since it was a display.
@@Taylor-dl2kr alright, anything else I should know about it or do? I dont have an amp or anything if you could reccomend me one. Nice cleans for interludes before metal stuffs
I am new to The Schecter guitar. From the one I played on Superbowl Sunday and the guitars I've just seen recently, I must say I'm proud to be a Fender guitar player. Schecter guitars may sound good when your playing thrash metal, but when it comes to playing Classic Rock or Blues, your best bet is either Gibson or Fender. I came very close to buying a Schecter guitar. It was way too loud for my amp.So yes I'm glad I turned it down.
I own a few of schecters, an omen extreme 6, a damien elite fr, and I just got an omen 8. I've gotten plenty of different sounds out of them. My damien is better for the trash, heavy crunchy sound and that's really what it prefers. My omen extreme is just a huge work horse though, I've gotten modern rock sounds, heavy metal, classic rock, I even get great cleans tones that offer really nice ambient coffee shop vibes, with the right tweaks I've gotten tele and strat sounds for those good eric clapton feels and I can get country vibes for some fun chicken pickin. My omen 8 is serving well for really pretty tappings which I can instantly change into really dark djenty destruction. I love schecter as you can tell lol. They are extremely versatile instruments, but since the blues and classic rock sound foundation is so concretely based in fender and gibson it's pretty much impossible to change that perception.
Kind of flexing on your guest... But thanks for the demo. This is in my top 3 for next guitar. Best Regards
