Description

Schecter BälSäc E-1 FR Electric Guitar – Black Orange Crackle

Hailing from the planet Ennui, BälSäc the Jaws ‘o Death is Gwar’s elder statesman and battle-axe wielding guitarist. Along with bass player Beefcake the Mighty and drummer JiZMak Da Gusha, BälSäc is responsible for the grinding rhythms that undergird Gwar’s ever-evolving musical mythos. When you’re fighting an intergalactic battle against the Master, you need the right sonic weapon. That’s why BälSäc teamed with Schecter to create the BälSäc E-1, a swaggering mahogany-bodied electric guitar with a carbon rod-reinforced set maple neck. Powered by two fire-breathing Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers and equipped with a Floyd Rose 1500 tremolo bridge, the BälSäc E-1 is an existential threat to “all that is uptight,” even more so given its foreboding black orange crackle finish. Get ready to go to war with the BälSäc E-1 from Schecter!

Iconic hard rock construction

The core of the Schecter BälSäc E-1 electric guitar is the mahogany, maple, and ebony set-neck design that has found a home with countless rock and metal guitarists worldwide. The tonewood combination offers a sound that has plenty of warmth and bark, but the maple delivers long sustain and a quick attack. You’ll notice harmonics and transients explode from the ebony fretboard. However, Schecter is far from copying an old design. Thanks to its sharp lines, thin “C” neck profile, and righteous black orange crackle finish, the BälSäc E-1 has a look and feel all its own.

Fishman Fluence Modern pickups for endless tonal options

Thanks to the BälSäc E-1’s Fishman Fluence Modern pickups, you’ll be able to harness the most sought-after humbucker tones. These pickups provide you with your choice of two unique, selectable voices. Revel in the tight bass, crisp highs, and subtle growl supplied by the Fluence’s modern active pickup voice. Or if you’re feeling a bit gnarly, these pickups’ high-output humbucker voice is tailor-made for distortion. The guitarists here at Sweetwater are impressed by the range of sounds generated by the BälSäc E-1.

Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo bridge for expressive performances

Schecter loaded the BälSäc E-1 with a Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo bridge. A remake of the original Floyd Rose blade tremolo, this incredible bridge lets you grab on and rock out — and without worrying about your tuning stability. You’ll get both the rock-solid reliability and the tight response you need for precision playing, along with the expressive vibrato and dive-bombing capability of the Floyd Rose.
