Three pickups, Bigsby tremolo and tons of mojo.
Funky, unique, and better than ever, the new Ultra III from Schecter Guitar Research is sure to satisfy any player that wants the look, feel, and sound of a pristine retro-style guitar with modern quality craftsmanship and hardware. A 3-piece mahogany neck with a vintage C profile is topped with a 22-fret Pau Ferro fingerboard and then deep-set into a mahogany body, resulting in an ideal foundation to deliver thick slabs of warm, vintage tones with soul-stirring resonance.
The Ultra III comes appointed with a set of three Schecter Diamond Alnico Plus Goldfoil humbuckers with an overwound bridge pickup, each with its own individual coil split switch, to place a huge variety of tonal selections at the players’ fingertips. Rounding out the retro-modern circuit is a 5-position rotary selector switch and a no-load tone pot equipped with a Paper-In-Oil capacitor.
To provide the smoothest and most stable possible playing experience, the hardware is rounded out with a licensed Bigsby B50 tailpiece, a locking roller- bridge, and vintage-style Grover 135 tuners, while a GraphTech Tusq XL nut helps prevent any string- snagging during vibrato use. With its winning combination of modern appointments and unique vintage sensibilities, and available in an ultra-thin and resonant Ivory Pearl finish, the new Ultra III will captivate even the most jaded of guitarists. Case sold separately.
