A Schecter Ultra with slightly altered body , 24 frets moon and star rosewood fingerboard neck through body , Grover tuners , Tune-O-Matic bridge , 2 Duncan 59s with coil tap , 2 volume pots and 1 master volume . Solid Mahogany. Guitar is flawless . VERY solid and VERY heavy . Guitar stays in perfect tune over time and just plays beautifully . The neck is just perfect . Not too thick and not too thin ( at least for me ) Despite a thick laquer on the back of the neck it still plays smooth and fast . This guitar is flat out amazing . I bought this guitar after buying a Porl Thompson and being THAT impressed with it . This guitar is no different . High end components throughout and made beautifully . A rock solid guitar that just plays beautifully . Just like my Porl Thompson the Ultracure just blows me away equally . Being new to Schecter ( normally a Fender Offset type) this Schecter just outplays my Fenders . Between the quality , playability and versatility I am just blown away by Schecter and the Ultracure . Even without a tone knob the guitar just can be both fat sounding and bright and sparkly . I feel this guitar is best for rock, jazz and just about everything else but metal without a pedal or processor . Naturally the guitar just sounds amazingly clean . For a guitar in this price range it is just astonishing . A solid , versatile guitar that to me is just beautiful ( granted , the shape is not for everyone ) .
