Schecter Nick Johnston Atomic Orange Strat type guitar in like new condition. I purchased this brand new five months ago. It has never left my house and is still in mint condition. When I bought this, I got a little too excited and bought two. Now that I have calmed down, I’m going to let one go and re-invest the money somewhere else. I love everything about this guitar. The neck is fantastic. The truss rod adjustment is a convenient wheel type located at the heel. The locking tuners hold tune very well. The vibrato system is great and the pickups are sweet as can be. And did I mention that it is Atomic Orange ?!?!? The color of this guitar just knocks me out. I love it. The only thing that I don’t care for on this guitar are the brass ring fret markers. They are unique, but are almost invisible and not very well centered. However, there are side dot markers, so it’s not an issue for me. If I was going to keep this guitar, I would probably add applique type fret markers.
I would encourage you to look up the reviews of this guitar on youtube. There are a whole bunch of them and they are all very positive. Most people think that this model blows away Fen@#r Strats.
Following is Schecter’s official description:
Premium upgrades and classic style are on display with Schecter’s Nick Johnston Diamond Series Traditional. A tried-and-true Alder body and a 25.5” scale Roasted Hard Rock Maple neck carved to Nick’s favorite specs set the foundations of a remarkably expressive instrument.
Capping the neck is a 14” radius Roasted Hard Rock Maple fretboard set with 22 gleaming nickel-silver frets marking the road to the tonal nirvana offered by the 3 Nick Johnston Diamond single-coil pickups. To top it all off and ensure your tuning stays where you need it, you’ll find a carefully chosen hardware package including a Graph Tech BlackTusq nut, Schecter Diamond Vintage vibrato, and Schecter locking tuners.
The Nick Johnston Diamond Series Traditional is offered in jaw-dropping finishes with mint green pickguard and chrome hardware, perfectly capturing a timeless and classic look that simultaneously stands out unmistakably from the crowd.
