Overview
Schecter Kenny Hickey C-1 EX S Steele Green is a signature model developed in collaboration with Kenny Hickey, known from Type O Negative. The guitar is designed for heavy tunings and powerful expression, featuring an extended scale length, Sustainiac system, and a stable set-neck construction suited for both stage and studio use.
Body and construction
The body is made from mahogany with an arched top and multi-ply binding. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access improves access to the upper frets while contributing to long sustain and even resonance.
Neck and fingerboard
The neck is constructed from three pieces of mahogany and features a Thin “C” profile. The 26.5” scale length provides increased string tension and improved clarity when using lower tunings. The fingerboard has 24 X-Jumbo frets and green block inlays. A two-way adjustable truss rod and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut contribute to stability and precise setup.
Pickups and electronics
The guitar is equipped with a Seymour Duncan JB SH-4B humbucker in the bridge position and a Sustainiac® pickup in the neck position. The Sustainiac system offers three modes – Fundamental, Mix, and Harmonic – and is activated via a dedicated switch. Electronics also include volume and tone controls, a three-way pickup selector, and a dedicated kill switch.
Bridge, tuners, and hardware
The bridge is a TonePros T3BT TOM with string-thru-body design for improved sustain and string stability. The tuners are Grover units finished in black chrome. All hardware is finished in black chrome for a consistent visual appearance.
