“Brutal looks and razor-sharp tones to push the limits of creativity”: Schecter’s Red Dawn series aims to weaponize a legion of chug-loving metal players

Schecter Red Dawn Series.

Schecter has made a bold play for the heavy riff market with its Red Dawn series of high-performance metal guitars, which have looks to kill, and the tones to confirm it.

There are five models in the series, all offering subtle tweaks of a theme founded upon fast-playing S-style axes with black finishes – why would you want any other color? – and brutal blood-red trims.
