Essential Information About the Schecter Nick Johnston Guitar (HSS)

  • Nick Johnston Signature designed to "disappear" in your hands: smooth feel, immediate control, effortless playing.
  • HSS pickup configuration (humbucker + 2 single coils) with a 5-position selector: from heavy rock to precise clean tones.
  • Roasted maple neck bolt-on + ebony fingerboard: sharp attack, fast response, and excellent note-by-note clarity.
  • Diamond Vintage Tremolo vibrato and locking tuners: stability and expressiveness for bends, right-hand vibrato, and nuances.

A Signature Guitar Focused on Being a "Transparent Instrument"

Nick Johnston describes the ideal instrument as one that fades away to let only the music and playing intention come through. This Schecter follows that philosophy: immediate playability, a comfortable neck profile, and simple electronics (Volume / Tone) to stay focused on touch, dynamics, and musicality rather than on settings.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

With its modern scale length, X-Jumbo frets, and versatile HSS setup, this guitar is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an expressive and precise electric guitar. It excels in rock, fusion, pop, and modern blues, while remaining very comfortable for articulate clean tones, funk rhythms, and singing leads.

Sound Characteristics

The alder body provides a natural balance, with present mids and clean lows, ideal for cutting through a mix without effort. The combination of roasted maple neck and ebony fingerboard enhances attack, definition, and precision, highlighting fast runs as well as open chords. Regarding pickups, the Schecter Diamond '78 in the bridge position delivers a denser and more powerful sound for riffs and solos, while the Nick Johnston Single Coils offer clear, snappy, and detailed tones. The 5-position selector allows instant switching from a muscular tone to finer sounds, with great intermediate options for rhythm playing.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

For transport, the guitar can be paired with the SGR-UNIVERSAL GUITAR gig bag (sold separately). As with any electric guitar, a standard strap and a quality instrument jack cable are reliable choices to enhance comfort and dependability in daily use.
