I have fallen completely out of love with my Schecter. No, it's not a high end model, but essentially the same shape/layout etc. At first I really enjoyed how light it was and the super flat fretboard etc. Now it just feels like a toy. It sounds good, came with Duncan somethingorothers in it. It just has a very limited pallette. I don't shred or chugga chugga, so I really don't have much use for it. It's a great looking guitar, does a fantastic job of ONE thing, and has better than average build quality (except perhaps the tune-o-matic style bridge that sort of sucks), it makes nice wall art.
