Thank you. This helped me decide this will be my first guitar. As a left handed player, nobody has the variety that Shecter does. Starting from scratch at 50. Just got back into playing drums after a 20 year hiatus. Always wanted to learn guitar. It’s never too late.
My 7 String Red Omen elite comes in tomorrow and i couldnt be any more exicted. I keep rewatching this video and it only furthers my excitment. Much love from texas
I always love your reviews, you play different styles that show the range of the guitar and not just a bunch of shredding like most reviews. I am Rock and blues man, and your review showed me this guitar would work for me. thanks, keep up the good work.
I love this guitar. I purchased the see thru blue when it was still a pre-order during Covid. This guitar is very versatile. It can handle be tuned down low and also has great sustain for being a midrange guitar from Schecter. It holds up nicely. I enjoy playing it just as much as my higher end Schecter. Best feature in my opinion is the neck, super comfortable and not too heavy. Im eyeing the 7string model now.
Jon , you are a great find and musical teacher- I totally believe in sharing everything about our skill and knowledge-yes I even give gear away to people I like to marry them to the love of guitar and music, that’s how I see you my friend and I also love your version of soul, sound, and style, so thank you for all your videos and this one I needed a lot.
Love ALL your demos at the start of every video. You REALLY can make any piece of wood with 6 strings and some bits of electronics sound FANTASTIC, and your delay/reverb game is soooo damn on point!! BTW, you helped me decide on picking up a Omen Extreme 6 through your recent review. Just hope Davis still got it in stock when I can make my way over there in August.
5 way switch ain't too bad but I hear the tuners are pretty bad on this model. Seems that's where they cheaped out for the lower price. Besides that everything else is great quality
What a great review, I was really curious about the pickups. Usually in this price range you need a pickup upgrade. Not this one, if you can't make it sound good, that's on you. Good job. I want the 7 string version. I'm sold!
I come for the playing but stay for the review...Brilliant playing as per usual.....Now, on to the Omen...I have a Omen Extreme FR (Floyd Rose), from years ago. Made in Korea. That thing absolutely slays anything in its path. It is a 2 handed BattleAxe...as in it is THICK!!!....Body, neck sound EVERYTHING....It took me a while to get used to. But I am glad I added it to the collection. Like you said they are not only for Metal. Mine has coil Splitting and is surprisingly versatile for a Metal Shredder..Almost every Schecter I have come across is well built. If its called an "Elite" I imagine it is a dream.....I also own a very bizarre 28 fret 5 string Schecter Cello Blaster GUITAR tuned to 5ths across ALL 5 strings. 27 1/2 inch scale....String gauges 74--50--36---19--11....Drop A,....TONS of fun. AS Metal as Metal gets for a drop tuned Shred Machine.....But guess what?....Even that one has coil splitting and sounds nice clean!!!...haha....Don't ask me how they do it. But your statement "not just for Metal" is very true. Cheers.
This might be the first time I've watched you Demo a Schecter and I did't buy it. LOL Ive already bought it. Great Demo and as always GREAT playing. Stay cool Brother.
I’ve own one of these for over a year now and it’s actually my go to it’s got so many great tones and and I don’t play metal at all I’m more into jam band ambient and classic rock stuff and it scratches all the itches lol good review though way to show it’s not just a drop tuning shredder
I love Jon’s videos let that be known before I tell you about this guitar. I had 2 of them. The first had a massive manufacturing defects, the inlays were not fully filled, the nut was damaged and the neck pocket was cut incorrectly. But the first one felt great! Very lightweight! The 2nd one I go to replace the first one, no manufacturer defects, but it felt worse, sounded worse, still had a nut problem. Turned out the QC was very hit or miss. The same exact instrument can be inconsistent. The pickups are mud. O I’m a metal guy too. This guitar is fairly priced but very inconsistent. For a newbie this is fine. For anyone else get another guitar
Hey Jon, what strings were you using in this video? I picked this guitar up in the blue burst back in January. Your playing sealed the deal on buying it. Keep up the great work. Rock on.
Thx for the great review! When you say that the nick is a bit thicker than the other thin-shaped necks from Schecter (Medium C) "do you then mean from the "Ultra thin C" or just the "Thin C" version? Best regards
Hey there Jon! I'm planning on getting the Schecter elite in this exact color, yet I also had my eye on the extreme. Which would you recommend? Thanks! If anyone else has advice I'd be happy to hear!!
Finally the tones I want to hear, and not just thrash metal. I want to know if I should cancel my order for the Omen Extreme and get this. Beautiful playing. Edit: I just found your review of the Extreme 6. Which did you prefer between the Elite and Extreme for the clean tones, and overall? I REALLY can't find the answer yet, and your clean tones are perfect for me. A thrashers opinion would not help me. I think the Elite sounded better from you than your Extreme review...but that may be the settings you used. So my question is which has better tone, sustain, and is the smoother Elite neck joint a deal breaker in favor of the Elite? My local store only has the Extreme.
I wish some of these guys would say, "This guitar is meant for metal. So...make sure you do not play rock 'n roll on it. Or jazz. Jazz is a big NO-NO on this guitar. As is country. In fact, it is illegal in Georgia to bring this guitar over state lines and attempt to play country on it."

This channel is a gem! I love everything about it.
Thank you!
Smooth playing, thank you for playing so many clean tones, i love the heretic pickups, and everyone else was total distortion.
Thanks
Excellent video as usual. Loved how you showed off the lovely clean sounds and of course your playing is superb. Keep up all the good work fine sir

Jon is a monstrous guitar player
You are too kind✌️❤️
Came back to the channel just to listen to this soulful jamming . Tks Jon . You're the best
Thanks Jay ✌❤
Just got one today! Going to use it at a gig tonight. Thanks for the detailed review
Awesome!✌❤
How has been the experience so far with this guitar?????
Just awesome playing imo the best on youtube. Thanks for posting!
Thank you Marcus✌️❤️
Love your playing, I had to check this out because I’m about to buy a Schecter and never owned one, except mine is made in Korea.
Cool, thanks!
Fantastic playing brotha, loved that bluesy opening jam.
Thank you! 👊😎
Thank you kindly!
Got one of these guitars today and waiting for it to arrive at its new home.
awesome!
A 3 way instead of 5 way switch and locking tuners and that would be my perfect out of the box guitar. Schecter's are such a work of art!
✌️❤️
5 way switch ain't too bad but I hear the tuners are pretty bad on this model. Seems that's where they cheaped out for the lower price. Besides that everything else is great quality

Such a sick player! Great demo as always!
Thank you ✌️❤️

Great demo man. Just got one today
Awesome!! thank you✌️❤️
Your playing style, choice of notes are fascinating 💖
Thank you ✌️❤️

When was this??✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud about 6 months ago.
What other guitars would you recommend?
I have the blue one , even though it was a pain in butt to setup . It plays like a dream and talk about hot pickups . They are tops for factory
Nice ✌️❤️
im considering blue one, how is it?
Jon is loud, and also the best ❤️❤️
Hahaha
Dang damn what was that music in the intro!(?) And that piece after!
✌❤
Very good demo.A veteran Band Lead Guitarist.
Bravo from the Philippines !
Thank you ✌💛
Here in Bohol boss.
Schecter does it again!
Yep✌️❤️
I quite liked this guitar until I saw the back which looks a little rough, it has a crisp sound to it though which is something I like!
It’s not tough.. a satin finish✌️❤️
Well, maybe I'm just guessing here, but I think guitars are meant to be played on the front🙂
@@meagainokay7673 lol
im torn if im going to Buy this one (with the Floyd) or the EVH Wolfgang standard....
any ideas?...
Your choice...I do not know about the Wolfgang
Those may look evil but they feel and sound heavenly
✌️❤️
Why is the see thru black version more expensive than the charcoal
Ask Schecter please
Jon does such good reviews. Some allege these Schecter pickups are muddy, and it kinda sounds like it. Does anyone agree or is it me?
✌❤
I love your channel.
Thank you so much!✌❤
Hey Jon, what strings were you using in this video? I picked this guitar up in the blue burst back in January. Your playing sealed the deal on buying it. Keep up the great work. Rock on.
I dont remember...might be 10s
Brilliant! The song what you played "loneliness" is available somewhere for listening?
Only here..✌♥
That is one nice guitar!
Most definitely ✌️❤️
Hey, consider ordering this one, but I'm looking for a super light one. How heavy is it compared to Jacksons Dinky Models or the Ibanez S Series?
Not too sure
hi jonathan, I'm curious if you've ever reviewed the yamaha pacifica? the pac012DLX..Also nice job on the schecter review..
Thanks.. and no I have not✌️❤️
Can u play all genres of rock with this? I Think about buying one. And are u using pedals or amp effekts in this video?
I dont see why not✌❤
I wish they put the finish on the back instead of just on the front
✌️❤️
What amps, eq, effects did you use on the dirty sound? Is this guitar better than the omen extreme?
check the description...
I saw that this is line6. I wanted to know what the setting is
@@JonIsJustTooLoudThanks for the quick response
Besides metal I use it alot for rockabilly and phycobilly lol
cool!
Yu can tunning down to drop A with this? Thx
Not sure.. maybe with a different string guide
Hello, I wanted to ask. How does it feel getting to higher frets?? Is it comfortable? Is there anything blocking you.?
Nope...✌♥
Thx for the great review! When you say that the nick is a bit thicker than the other thin-shaped necks from Schecter (Medium C) "do you then mean from the "Ultra thin C" or just the "Thin C" version? Best regards
yes
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Just the Thin C?
One day I aspire to play mine like this tasteful playing no 100000 notes per minute lol
lol ..keep at it! Less is more..✌❤
Even the Floyd Rose model is reasonably priced! Nice neck, since it is not a 3 piece neck. Better a bit more 🪵 wood
✌️❤️
Wow, you played that guitar with the plastic pickup packaging protectors still on.
lol
Did you play with the plastic still on the pickups? lol
Always do!!
Did you prefer this over the omen extreme you reviewed? Which one did you like the most?
They are all nice...I'm at a loss too ✌♥
Sometimes your playing is reminiscent of buckethead, amazing!
✌💚
Would you pick this over the damien 6?
maybe..yea..
I'm stuck between omen extreme and elite, which one do you recommend in terms of playing comfort and sound?
Lol they are both that .. you have to try them yourself.. our taste will be different✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud thank you 🤘🏻
Hey there Jon! I'm planning on getting the Schecter elite in this exact color, yet I also had my eye on the extreme. Which would you recommend? Thanks! If anyone else has advice I'd be happy to hear!!
it's really your choice...✌♥
😍 😍 😍 😍 😍 😍
✌️❤️
Schecter omen elite 6 or schecter c6 pro???
Your choice ✌🏻
Hi everyone, which one Is better the schecter omen extreme 6 tbk or the schecter omen elite 6, what do you think about It?
Try them out and see for yourself bro. I wouldnt go off other peoples preferances its all about yours. Go to ur local guitar shop and try them out 🤘😄
Totally agree!
Song name please?
It’s just a jam ✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I loved it,sir do you have tab?
Finally the tones I want to hear, and not just thrash metal. I want to know if I should cancel my order for the Omen Extreme and get this. Beautiful playing.

Go for the Elite ✌️❤️
I was in the same boat man I still want the extreme but I’m confident I made the right call going for the elite
Also I add I don’t play meta at all I do jam band, ambient blues stuff and and more the things fantastic
Hipshot tuners will make it complete
✌❤
Mine has some flaws but I love it . The pickups are not muddy as some suggest
✌️❤️
nice axe
✌️❤️
2:21 lick is schweeet.
Thank you ✌❤
@@JonIsJustTooLoud No, thank YOU! Just bought an Omen to try it out 🎸🔥
