Schecter AARON MARSHALL AM-6 TREM AJ Electric Guitar
From subtle vibrato to shrieking dive-bombs, the Schecter Aaron Marshall AM-6’s Gotoh vintage tremolo is a favorite among Sweetwater guitarists for its exceptional combination of reliability and versatility. Its 2-point design is about as time-tested as tremolo units get, and when set up correctly, it retains your tuning remarkably well. Add in the top-of-the-line Hipshot Grip Lock tuners, and the Aaron Marshall AM-6 can handle even the most furious playing without batting an eye.
As an instrumental project, Aaron’s fleet-fingered playing is often the star of the show, dazzling listeners with his sheer technical wizardry. To facilitate these impressive chops, the Aaron Marshall AM-6’s neck is loaded with just about every high-performance improvement in the book! This neck starts with a rock-solid piece of quarter-sawn wenge, carved into the classic thin “C shape that so many shredders and virtuosic players have come to prefer for its fast feel. Next, the Macassar ebony fingerboard boasts a 12–16-inch compound radius that optimizes your setup from the first fret all the way to the 24th. Lastly, the jumbo stainless steel frets provide a slick surface with plenty of meat to enable easy bends — all while being all but impervious to fret wear!
Any fan of Aaron’s fingerboard virtuosity is keenly aware of how many tones his progressive metal virtuosity covers — often within a single song! Low-tuned chug, saturated lyrical leads, ultra-clean rapid-fire arpeggios: it’s a tall task for any set of pickups to cover. To meet his exacting needs, the Schecter Aaron Marshall AM-6 is loaded with a pair of pickups built by Schecter USA, including a Solstice humbucker in the bridge and an Equinox humbucker in the neck. Moreover, a 5-way switch grants you access to plenty of unique in-between tones, making this 6-string an absolute titan of versatility.
