It’s for guitar research purposes
I almost spit out my coffee 😂
😂😂😂
I am almost ready to start a *research* habit just to make that thing make sense.
I can do a lot of *research* right off the top of it; the whole thing is a mirror, if the shape didn't already have some sort of large implication I can't figure out.
EDIT: More *research* is needed
The experiment is "can you kill an artists career by giving him guitars looking like objects people use to do some very specific thing with?"
If the Razorblade doesn't work they'll surely try a rope shaped one. If nothing helps ther's also the option of putting a picture of Eminem somewhere...
@russellzauner and when you run out of research material you can cut yourself for.... research
I have a Schecter baritone...a Hellraiser! It's abalone city. It's so obnoxiously full of abalone, it bugs people. So, I love it even more.
Schecter's basses almost seem like a different company, the designs are so much more tasteful
I think the ergonomics of a much larger instrument force them to be. So many offset and odd shaped basses end up having problems with weight distribution and neck dive, even classic designs like the Gibson Thunderbird. Bassists tend to be more out-there when it comes to features - we have no problems with complex switching, active electronics, fanned frets etc.
Schecter basses are S tier fr 🔥
Maybe I just have poor taste but I personally think the abalone looks good. Especially on the hellraiser. When I was searching for my first good electric guitar, hellraisers were going for about six hundred dollars used and after playing it as my main electric for the past three years the only problem I've had with it is one I've developed with Floyd Roses in general and has been mostly solved by blocking it into a hardtail. It's a really solid guitar and I think the cherry, rosewood, abalone combo comes together really well.
Taste is entirely subjective. A lot of people liked the look of classic schecters that's why the c1 hellraiser sold like hot cakes
I like it too honestly.
Abalone looks really good against solid paint jobs. Not so much against figured wood, IMO.
I have the Hellraiser C-7 Passive in transparent midnight blue satin. It's a quilted maple top that's like a medium blue color. The abalone looks awesome with that color.
Schecter often feels like a company run by someone with good sense, but sometimes lets the immature younger brother make decisions because mom and dad said so. Some of the finish choices are just so cringe (Silver Mountain, I'm looking at you).
The sharp frets thing--I just bought a Caifornia Classic, which is a $2,500 MIJ guitar out of the highly respected Fujigen factory (where Ibanez Prestiges are made), and it had sharp frets.
I actually miss abalone era Schecter.
I've come to really appreciate that aesthetic with time, and no one makes that kind of guitar anymore, except for like the newer BC Rich stuff, but they're Hella expensive.
Makes me regret I didn't go for that abalone bedecked Charvel Desolation back when I was buying my first guitar.
LTD still has a few EC1000 with quite a bit of abalone, and Schecter hasnt completely dumped it either. Hellraisers still have some abalone binding but it isn't quite as thick or gaudy as previously.
c1 hellraiser is 900 bucks usd down and is still in that style
Same, the c-1 classic looks beautiful
Same.
Y2k era schecters were nice.
I don't like Schecter, but I agree with this post. Abalone everywhere.
If "I'm 14 and this is deep" was a guitar
Someone at Schecter definitely lost a bar bet. I almost wish they had made the razor functional. Can you imagine being able to slice paper thin deli meat and cheese on that thing?! “Schecter: shred snacks while shredding guitar.” 🤤🥓🧀🎸🤘🏻❤️🔥
My guy you’re up at 3:04am pumping out a video huge respect
Probably 9pm his time.
i live in Amsterdam (we have the same time as Germany) not 9pm 304 am@@karmaandkerosene2885
Just imagine showing up to a gig with that
I'm not disappointed in Schecter - I think this is absolutely hilarious because it's that bad. This makes the guitar world funny to me and it's always entertaining to watch a dumpster fire. I say good job Schecter, pls do more. XD
Anime profile picture, socially awkward balding male with over 20% bodyfat confirmed.
@@MrBikboicope harder kiddo, don't cut yourself on all those edges 😂
@@MrBikboi that's a correct description, but what is your point?
I’m an avid Schecter believer, but this has shaken my faith
Eh I don't blame a company for attracting new customers, so long as the quality and offerings don't suffer as a result.
Me too. I have 3 Schetcers, a CR-6, a Sun Valley Super Shredder (sorry to Keylan), and a Zacky Vengeance signature model (because I like Avenged Sevenfold), and this guitar makes me wonder if they're right in the head. Though, my guess is MGK chose the razorblade shape and Schecter just make & sell the guitar, so we can't blame them for it.
@@MichaelD8393 Yo! I have a CR 6 and a sun valley too!😂🔥
Though my sun valley is a used one I bought for cheap and BADLY needs a setup. I plan on modifying it and converting it into a microtonal guitar💯 wish me luck.
@@74bassman Good luck indeed, largely because I had to look up what a microtonal guitar was 😂 All jokes aside, I love my Sun Valley just the way it is; no need to mod it except maybe graphite string locks on the Floyd. Keylan definitely got a lemon when he tried the Sun Valley. And the CR-6 is one of my work horses that can take whatever I throw at it. Plus, that aquaburst finish 😍
@@MichaelD8393 I got fleeced with my CR6, the aquaburst looks just green. Plain green. Never returned it coz I was an idiot back then that didnt know better (it was my first electric guitar), but other than that it has been an AWESOME guitar! I love that thing to death. Even tho the tuners on mine could use some work lol.
N my sun valley is so nice, as you said, doesnt need modification. Its so nice to the point where I almost feel guilty replacing that beautiful fretboard with my custom microtonal one lol. But I bought it specifically for that purpose, and also because it has a sustainiac and I know thatll sound epic with a microtonal tuning 🔥🔥🔥
Even as someone who's been playing Schecter since 2015 and dreamt of becoming one of their artists someday, you're spot on with this one. I thought the tele and his acoustic (yes they made him one of those, too) were a waste of resources and money, but this made me wanna bleach my eyes, fingers crossed we get less of that and more like the Keith and John stuff
Cut my life into pieces!
I love weird guitars. I even wanted to like the idea of a 'razor blade' guitar.....nope. It just looks like a painted square. And this coming from a guy who has 2 coffin shaped guitars, a schecter 'Black Widow' Diamond guitar, some BC Rich guitars and basses (one being the Widow Bass), and a bunch of LTD F series guitars and basses.
i'd take the abalone bound Hellraiser over one of those literal razors any day of the week
I’m an Ibanez dude but god damn I would buy a c8 Floyd rose if one popped up close by in a heartbeat
@@poorman9259 I have a C1 ultraviolet FR/S that i got a hell of a deal on & I like it, the things weighs as much as a les paul but the sustaniac is a blast and the finish is pretty cool I think
The Gretsch Bo Diddley is a rectangular guitar. Unlike that Sphincter that Gretsch has a notable cool-factor.
The only way this could be any worse would be abalone inlays and binding
If schecter wanted to make a razor blade shaped guitar they should have done so for the 40th anniversary of British Steel or something like that
This is my favorite post ironic guitar
Isn't there a band called razor? That could've gotten a tribute guitar?
There’s so much I hate about this, the fact that it’s MGK (who, lest we forget, is lowkey a pedo), the fact that Schecter are an otherwise relatively respectable brand, and the fact that it romanticizes self-harm (which does offend me as I have had problems w/ that). I’m just beyond disappointed tbh
anticipated this video as soon as i saw the post😭
Came from your community post and I was not disappointed. Holy shit. That is an abomination of a "guitar"
Jesus MGK is really taking shots at the hip-hop community by making a guitar known as "The Knicker"
Yooooo 😂😭
That guitar would work for Cattle Decap
Like, why? Schecter make some pretty decent guitars but once in awhile something happens that makes me think there’s one person on the team who needs to go to rehab.
I wanted a guitar just like that during the 80s when I was doing a lot of coke.
Did you guys get any of those Schecter C-1's with the f'ed up fret placement?
Interestingly, after the video, I got an ad about mental health.
Glad to see ads about that, but it made me wonder
I like most Schecters, but I agree with you on this one. Then again I'm old school. I guess I might be able to overlook it if it was 600 to 700 bucks.
It looks like a r/guitarcirclejerk schecter shitpost, and i genuinely want this just to laugh at it every day.
So, how long until you get your hands on one of these?
the paraphrase Dr Frankenfurter: They didnt make it FOR YOU!
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say nobody's spending $1,500 on that thing.
I can see a use for a volume and killswitch,, my home rig is set up quite high gain and if I want to play "clean" I just roll off the volume. I'm too lazy to turn around and turn off my pedals.
Even Kaylen, being the laid-back guy he is, feels confused by that fucking ugly guitar... From Schecter!
It truly reminds me of those unpleasant Steinberger Headless guitars, but with a Headstock. 😂💀
oh wait, i thought the pink and black guitars in your poll thumbnails were the guitar. that razorblade shit is FUGLY AS HELL LMAOOOOO. btw ur hair is looking luxurious ;)
I saw the thumbnail and the first thing I think of is a razor blade guitar and I somehow got it right
Now that you mentioned it, it does look like a Chibson post lol!
The only guy allowed to play a giant rectangle, is Billy Gibbons xD
DSBM - The guitar.
They make guitars for avenged sevenfold what do you expect
Looks like the Wylde Audio design crew dreamed this one up. Fugly.
😅Phew! Had a pair of these in my basket, was just about to pull the trigger when i seen this! Just in the "nick" of time! 😅
Cheers bro! Life saver! 😃🙏
My GOD, that is awful, it may only get worse from here if Schecter continue to produce signatures for MGK…
Looks like Scarface Tony Montana signature model, no? "Say HELLO to the Bad Guy!"
I legit thought it was a chibson post at first
Every single person thought it was a Chibson until something like the 5th insta story they saw about it. Absolutely bizarre
In their defense, the market demand for $1500 angsty cigar box SG Jr.'s has never been higher...
Well, you know what they say, "whether it's good publicity or bad publicity, it's still publicity." Although I think this guitar is super cringe and laughable, it's definitely getting eyes on Schecter guitars.
I first thought this was made for Judas Priest's British Steel... Looking back, it should've had Judas Priest slapped on it if it was.
The frets on my sun valley are great
Sixstringtv sees a razor blade and thinks "Self harm". I see a razor blade and think "Cocaine"- we are not the same.
As someone who just sees a shaving tool, I am deeply concerned for all of you.
I would seriously make my own custom Shakter v look like the original Jeff Loomis Signature, because I'm a huge fan of nevermore And arch enemy The only things I would do is put a floyd rose 1500. A built-in kill switch On the volume pot. And a 3-way toggle switch And make it more like a Zack wylde profile, neck But with a slim taper bonus.
I don't know if this is any worse than the coffin-shaped bass guitar they made last year. They posted an amazing new Keith Merrow sig and a beautiful orange Tele in the last week so I'm not too worried that they might be taking a wrong turn or anything.
You're not talking about the Sean Yseult Sig that's been out for over 10 years?
You could always slap a couple of "British Steel" decals on it and turn it into a Judas Priest tribute.
Why are killswitches useless with a single pickup? Do you just use the pickup selector instead?
What lmao
@@sixstringtv1 @1:34 My bad, got my thoughts crossed. Why would you not want a killswitch with a volume pot?
Wait, I thought his name was just Machine now.
No joke I thought these were Chibson shitposts, but when I slowed down and actually looked at the official posts...I still couldn't believe it.
I get the idea and some people probably can't wait to get it but I'm partial to guitar shaped guitars, that excludes more of them than you might think but I was 14 a long time ago so this stuff doesn't appeal to me anymore. For their sake I hope they didn't make to many. Just occurred to me some company will probably lower the price and send you one every month on a subscription plan like Harry's.
Just looking at it makes you wanna punch the drywall. Imagine playing it.
I thought it was just supposed to be like a cigar box in electric form.. this is exponentially worse
I would play it however i like weird looking guitars
What surprises me the most is how they nail the style of chibsons posts
If i had pounds of cocaine i would get it to make a tic tok .
Bo Diddly could have done some head cutting.
For another interesting guitar...
The Epiphone Airscreamer based on the Airstream caravan
I did not fall for the rage bait. I saw it and went "oh, that's silly", and moved on. Schecter signed off on it and if it's a major flop then it's on them. That's the thing about signature guitars, you're stuck between what the artist wants and what will make money for the company. I actually didn't mind MGK's Tele, I thought it was kinda cool. This guitar is ridiculous but it doesn't affect me and my 2 Schecters whatsoever. :P
Thought for a second this was a Minecraft guitar from the thumbnail
This guitar was literally made to grab people's attention, this video proves that point.
And so does the fact that you're watching it
@@sixstringtv1 People like you take this shit way too seriously, getting butthurt over a dumb looking guitar when you can just simply give attention to the ones you enjoy.
Literally the video before this one is about a guitar I enjoy.
Please go away
@@sixstringtv1 And yet you still made this video. Bringing more attention to it and maybe even indirectly increasing sales. Congrats 👏
On the bright side it looks like it would be pretty easy to clone with zero milling/routing experience.
I've never been a big fan of Schecter guitars but I have owned several for one reason or another, (C1 Elite, 7 string hellraiser, a XXX, and sun valley) I would agree on the sun valley super shredders for sure. I had the Blue Reign one and was never really happy with it, so sold it at a loss after only 3 months. The only one I have left is the XXX, and only because its cool and very rare.
Wait this wasn't a chibson post? ☠️
I want one, now!
As an old rocker, I have to say (a) I think MGKs new album is great pop punk and (b) I think this is brilliant, eye catching, albeit wacky as hell .. I would imagine most "real" musicians felt exactly the same way about Gene Simmons now iconic Battle-Axe bass and Mike Anthony's Jack Daniels bass .. I am prepared to be flamed and doxed and then protested against for these views .. lol
Yes, I also thought it was a chibson post, and I’m very sorry I own a Schecter
I think youre missing the point
Whats better for the industry is these crazy looking guitars to be pushed so the tonewood and shape in the sound influence blows itself away
I could see Bink Bonk in Zazz Blammymatazz rocking this razor blade shaped guitar as a reference to Doctor Rockso's love for cocaine
loving the beard
Going proper Arab in 2024
It’s actually pretty sick
Rockers crying about a gutair drsign is genuinely hilarious
we've devolved into snooty karens, our chins pointing up with our fingers pointing at those lower beings that dare to try something new or like something we dont like.
I swear, I was convinced it was a Chibson post until you said it wasn’t
somebody called the fun police
When is this guy Kaylen gonna stop complaining about everything and make a badass album? I know this dude can play, he is intelligent, he has good equipment, and he has good taste. Please Kaylen hit me up when you finish an album. I know by your taste and playing ability you have potential for greatness
Interessante Aussage zu den Schecter Modellen, die unter anderem auch die Jeff Loomis Signatures betreffen.
Könnte auch von einem unter 12 Jährigen stammen, also jenen, denen du unterstellst sie zu spielen. ;)
Its def got that cutting tone
All I will say is it would be better if it was a Dimebag signature because of the iconic necklace that he wore
They did already make the coffin too
The... send yourself to heaven guitar because life is hard...
New DSBM guitar
As someone said it in another comment section: This is a hard rock cafe wall hanger guitar
Tell me you do meth with a signature guitar 😂😂
Time to switch to ESP, my eyes will thank me but my wallet will despise me.
*If I got it, I would most definitely have the body professionally stripped, repainted, and refinished, as an exact real life rendering of the front cover art for the Judas Priest album,, **_"British Steel."_*
🤔
Razor blade guitar = self harm? I assumed it meant cocaine abuse.
His poor wife and his poor daughter having to deal with a manchild who keeps threatening to off himself…
I might have thought this was cool back in the “scene” days when I wore a cringey razor blade necklace
The Jeff loomis sig from schecter fucking rules and doesn't look bad lol
Yeah, I completely agree. I don't really buy into those weird guitar shapes anyway. A guitar to me is simply a tool for making music, not a fashion accessory.
