Played A Very Cool Guitar Today
Moderator: bclaire
I love my C1 Classic.. nice features, great fit & finish. Schecter has a lot of cool guitars. The Stargazer is Ric-ish but nice.

I had a Schecter that was stolen several years ago. It played and sounded awesome. Still miss that thing, I would buy another in a heartbeat. I also find myself liking the coil tap function these days. I used to hate single coils always going for that smooth humbucker growl. As I've matured through the years I am using single coil more and more as they seem more articulate and touch responsive than buckers IMO.

<br />AND, with one of these, the manufacturer will actually warrant their product!
(Those of you who have ever had a Ric problem, will understand).

Greg, that goes back to the '60s and '70s.
Ricks had neck problems in those days.
The truss rods in old Ricks were not strong enough to bend the neck into position when making adjustments.
You had to bend the neck into position and then turn the truss rod to hold it there.
No, I'm not kidding.
Broken truss rods and necks were all too common.
They kept that horrible design into the '80s, if memory serves correctly.
They never backed up their warranty then either.
Only in the last few years did Rick acknowledge that the old design was a problem- they denied it for years.
So, if anyone ever wants to buy an old Rick, think twice, make sure that you understand what you're getting.
