As someone who also owns a shop order Schecter guitar, welcome to the club. The Japanese schecters blow the doors off the Diamond series schecters. There are some absolute steals on the used market in Japan. And luckily schecter Japan makes guitars for every genre. My personal ambition is a custom shop MIJ schecter. Also these guitars are made/finished in the same factory as ESP guitars.
I knew you've long been a big fan of these I just hadn't found one that really jumped out to me prior to this. The quality really is top notch, it is just being spoiled by all the other domestic only Japanese guitars I've played has me expecting it! I think if more people were able to try something like this or the other options we'd have to had a hard look at our offerings in the USA and the prices.
@@AudiomoMusic People really would start asking some hard questions, thats why Schecter employees like to shut down any talk of schecter Japan on the schecter subreddit 🤣
I like that first chord progression you played starting with an E, really cool. I've had a Schecter Tele style guitar for 11 years now and I like it as much as the USA Fenders i have. It's the PT model fashioned after the tele's Townshend was playing on the Who's 1982 tour, my first concert. His had a Fender style head stock too which mystified me at the time. Then I found out later that Schecter had a license to make Fender parts for a few years in the 80's. Mine of course just has the beak style head stock but in every other aspect it looks like a Fender, except it is heavier and has humbuckers in it. I agree with you , Schecter needs to get on board and start selling models similar to the one you just tested out, over here. They would certainly be popular.
Thanks Dan, and I've seen a few of those older PT and strat style Schecters in my time looking for older Japanese guitars. Great stuff man! It would be awesome if they could get a variation of this guitar here in the US even though I doubt it would be Japanese made.
What a great find! Love how the look and how you sounded. You need to start photographing these guitars. You’ve made some really great finds over the years. Would be great for a book or other merch.
I've debated it but I don't think I'd be able to even sell it no? Wouldn't there be some laws stopping that from happening or copyright claims on the IP? haha
That bridge is such a bonus to a great instrument, I live in Thailand & a few guitars make the journey here from Japan that aren't mainstream & just carried in by Thai guys coming back from their factory job. I tend to look out for '62 Tele customs but I think Uncle larry just hiked the prices up...
Custom Tele's had a bit of a price hike even used in Japan. They are especially sought after now I believe since Fender USA or MIM offer a double bound model outside of a MIM one with a sunburst finish and the shops caught onto it.
Why didn't you jump on it??? This was actually a small batch shop order from a different shop in Japan that happens to have I believe still 3 brand new ones in a different finish.
Too many unknowns. The lack of neck dimensions, on top of a lack of reviews made it a bit too risky for me to import it. I really wanted a DC, but I had this one saved just in case.
Really nice Schecter. Like you, I'm not a particular fan of Schecter, but this one I could get behind. How is the neck? I tried the Epiphone LP Special (TV Yellow and 2 P90's) and loved it, but the neck was too wide.
Yeah same boat right? It's wild. The neck feels right inbetween a 50's and 60's Gibson, it's super smooth and has a 42mm nut so it's not too wide at all.
I love this guitar! With Color and all. I have always loved the P90s Sound. If I want a guitar with those specs, I guess I would have to call Schecter here and speak to someone in their Custom Shop. I would think they can design this guitar but being a Custom Shop made it would be KA-CHING!!! $$$..LOL....Can I email the Japanese company that made it? I'm sure they would have a custom shop place. Thank you for posting this.
I liked the jam you played before highlighting the different pickups. I lost my dog today, and for whatever reason, your tunes picked me up a bit. Thanks for the video, brother.
I've been to Ishibashi a lot over the past few years - and I have never seen this guitar there. This must have been a quick in / out thing. The annoying thing about Schecter in Japan is that they have a very limited range of guitars that they sell here, all pretty generic S and T style guitars and a few more metal guitars. But it's like 1/3rd of the US range. Like I cannot even buy the MIJ California Classic in Japan.
I know Jim might disagree but i love the white and cream in fact as far as appearance this guitar is perfection for my taste and it sounds damn good! I did a custom guitar in Seafoam green, made sure to order cream pups and white knobs lol, i totally get the original owners taste!
I love Japanese made guitars, but that one isn't great because its Japanese, its great because its a Schecter. Every Schecter ive ever put my hands on has been phenomenal! I have a Korean made C1 Helraiser Hybrid and its one of the best made, best fit n finish guitars ive ever held. When i was younger i fell in love with a salmon metallic Schecter Strat, with a mirror pickguard and it was one of the greatest Strats ive ever experienced. Schecter makes EXCELLENT instruments period.
You may well be right, I just hadn't ever played one as the majority were not my style at all design wise since I clearly don't use a ton of gain but man it's great to hear it goes across the whole lineup!
Great to see that you have discovered Schecter's Japan only range of guitars. It's frustrating that these are only available as a personal import even here in the UK Which makes no sense, other brands such as Ibanez and even Fender sell made in Japan models. I now prefer the Japanese models over the ones made elsewhere. Enjoy this one Jim.🙂👍
I've known about them for a while, but the models I've known about never really did anything for me for the F style guitars or more modern/metal guitars... I didn't expect to find one in this style and I'm really happy I did. It does suck how impossible it is to get stuff like this.
@@AudiomoMusic The Japanese have been doing this for years with all types of consumer products. It wasn't until the magazine reporters started visiting Japan to see what new gear had been released that they found that the most desirable was never exported and back in the 70's there was no internet to enable us to import them. Most of my Hi-Fi gear are imports, problem is that the shipping makes them an expensive option.
Wow! Wasn’t expecting that. Looks pretty good, Jim. As a Japanese expert 😉 what is your take on the MIJ Gretsch guitars? Think we’ll see one someday on the channel?
I really like them but they fall into such a weird category, I will focus a whole stream or video on them if you want and talking about them but for me and what those cost you're talking about hand made custom instruments in Japan that are imo a bit better as the competition - this isn't Gretsch's fault it's the issue of having them available worldwide under the FMIC family of brands.
@@AudiomoMusic Thanks 🙏 it would be interesting for me. As someone who grew up around the “worship music” genre I’ve noticed nearly everyone plays a Gretsch. I’ve always avoided them for this reason. However, I do love the sounds they get out of them.
This looks and sounds fantastic. I played a les paul special in the tv yellow a few weeks ago in a GC. I liked it but didn't love it. I wanted to love it. I would love to see any other color offerings they have that are out there in the world somewhere.
Yeah that's the thing, this is such a uniquely 50's looking guitar it'd be awesome to see even more pastels from old car colors used on this kind of instrument. i think it works perfectly
Very Cool Jim - Nice find! It suits your vibe 😎👌 You're totally right on the creme/white mismatch though... That kind of thing bothers me way more than it should 🙈 Easy fix though 😀👍
WD music make custom pickguards and are about 20 min north of me, I will be heading with it in hand and asking for a cream one for sure haha. Knobs are an easy fix but pickguards especially on uncommon guitars you have to make sure they fit perfect
@@AudiomoMusic I actually like the mixed shades, the contrast is attractive, sort of like having brass saddles on a chrome/nickel bridge, or brass knobs on a telecaster, but we all have different tastes.
That's a frickin beauty! Great score. I had a Schecter for a few days once. I got it for a trade and had to go through with the trade. I ended up trading into a sweet Fender tube amp, but that Schecter is one guitar that I wish I still had. Yours is seriously sweet.
Thanks and that stuff has happened to me where a trade becomes another trade and I end up regretting it later, it's a curse we all have sometimes haha!
Cool guitar. I just looked up Schechter Japan and as a dyed-in-the-wool Jaguar player, I see that their AR series (Jag-style) don't have a vibrato unit or a rhythm circuit, so I am out.
Yeah their offsets aren't exactly on my radar either. If you want a great Japanese offset look for Momose or Van Zandt, Fender USA would be screwed if they were allowed to sell those here in America.
Being a Fender guy, I tried my best to like p90s... can't do it; too much midrange while being too hot and too dark sounding. I ordered an Edwards LP special from Japan, played great, sounded "meh" at best even after a more "vintage" sounding pup set swap, then mini hums (love them on a jagmaster, hate them on a Gibson style).
It took me many years to come around to them being primarily a telecaster player, just gotta have the right amp for it and dial it in and I get all the chime I could ever want and have a bridge pickup that reminds of a tele on steroids - but I can understand why some people just don't care for em.
I put a Gotoh 510-U on my Les Paul Special and love it. I would have loved to snag one of these Japanese Schecters because I love the brand and this style/feature set is awesome🤘
What an awesome guitar! As a side note, I love that style of tuning peg too - the small white heads look so cool (just a small visual thing but I love that, love it on Gibson Specials when they've had them too). Guitar looks and sounds awesome and seems fun to play, light as a feather - nothing to not like really! Also that combo of cream and white shouldn't work at all for me, but found it somehow looked cool during the playing clips/didn't annoy me like I would assume if i'd just been told that was what it would look like if that makes sense lol. Yeah, all round looks like a really cool, fun, reliable, head-turning instrument thats a blast to play - top stuff and great video as ever!
I think I can get past the knobs but the pickguard has gotta turn cream haha. The guitar itself is a joy to play and I am happy to have found it, just a shame this was not a full on production model so it's not something others will easily be able to find. Thanks Ian!
I'm gonna make a video all about it it's kind of a long story however a quick overview is Gibson screwed up and waited WAY too long to take the companies to court in Japan. The compromise was Japanese brands as granted access by the Japanese courts would be able to use the open book headstock on Domestically sold instruments and any export models would have to use something else.
u.s. patent only. like a tokai i bought in the phillipines, legit fender headstock totally legal there. nervous at immigration but i made it home with my $1200 tokai strat
I’m studying for my JLPT test and I can’t wait to move to Japan…the kind of guitars available there are just ridiculous. ESP and Fujigen seem to be the top dogs there and I’m all for it.
They are by no means the top dogs, maybe in terms of production numbers but the high end stuff - you're gonna be blown away by brands you've never heard of.

Wow that bridge seems to be a better fixed bridge than a tune o matic
100%
Jim have you ever been to Japan? Looks beautiful outside of the big cities.
It is beautiful pretty much everywhere. If all goes well it's where we will eventually settle down on live out the rest of our days on this globe.

Yeah, kinda gives me a Danelectro vibe with a thicker sound.
its certainly a dano look to it haha
Am I the only one who now wants this guitar, probably, just because I can't get it?
no, I've actually gotten a lot of emails about it since posting this haha
Wow. Very cool. Seems so odd that these wouldn't be a regular run. Sounds killer too. You seemed to have some fun playing it.
It's like a telecaster on steroids, I was like a fish in water with it and really enjoyed it haha.
Very nice and Congratulations! on your NGD! Best Regards and Best Wishes!

I am having a good day Jim also how is your day going ❤😊
extremely busy, packing the house to move and prepping for my kids birthday party and all my inlaws+family coming to visit so things are hectic!

Ishibashi music store. I just bought a sonic blue 50s japanese strat from the shinsaibashi store
Wow, didnt even know Schecter had guitars like this in their category, wicked cool for sure!
Wish they were available here man, it's great!
Is the Gibson headstock shape OK for others to use now? Even epiphone is using it now.
Looks great sound great, did you decide to keep that broken tone king amp after all?
No, I did not. I used it for this video but it was sent back and I won't be opting for another repair just a straight return.
I know Jim might disagree but i love the white and cream in fact as far as appearance this guitar is perfection for my taste and it sounds damn good! I did a custom guitar in Seafoam green, made sure to order cream pups and white knobs lol, i totally get the original owners taste!

That means more to me than just the guitar itself looking and sounding good, thanks!
Great Demo..............Cheers
Thanks James, hope you and the family are well
My best instruments are all made in Japan lol.
Same for me, with the one US guitar sneaking into that being the Gibson R9.
I own 3 Shecters... love them all :)
hell yeah!
So Gibson doesn't enforce their trademarks in Japan?

It was on the screen during the bench section but I don't think I actually said it during the video outside of that - Schecter L-LS-P
Thank you sir. It looks a fantastic guitar, love the colour, but I’d have to have all the plastics matching.

thanks!
Nice bridge.
It sure is, great design
I love the sh¡† outta it!
I especially like the two tone plastics. All cream woulda looked a bit dull, and all white woulda looked a bit weird ... But I love the pristine white knobs and guard.
Goes so great with the Seafoam Green.... and the "Silver Line" font on the 'stock looks... Chef's Kiss! 😚👌
And, goes without saying I love a wraptail bridge. So snappy!
Thanks Luey and the look is kinda growing on me I gotta admit. Some outdoor gigs over the summer and it'll start aging from white on it's own regardless
Japanese guitarist are just on a dfferent level. They get so many cool brands doing 1:1 copies.
The goal is to one day say I've been able to try one from each maker
They cant hit the US market with those. Gibson would have a dying duck fit. Schecter doesn't want that smoke.
just think of how much fun it would be to watch from the sidelines though haha
well yeah, it's there design
