C-1 Hellraiser

The C-1 Hellraiser is a guitar manufactured by Schecter Guitar Research and is designed for metal and hard rock. There are two versions, the standard and the C-1 FR. Both feature two EMG pick-ups (81TW and 89), but the FR features an original Floyd Rose locking tremolo, and "whammy" bar. It retails for around $850 for the FR and $600 for the standard.

The Hellraiser is available in three different finishes: Black Cherry, White and Black. The Black Cherry features abalone binding, rosewood fretboard, and chrome tuners. The Black features Black Pearl binding and black hardware. The White features abalone bindings and black hardware. All have abalone gothic cross inlays to give the guitar that extra sinister feel.

Some artists known to play the Hellraiser are Jeff Loomis of Nevermore and Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold.
