The Schecter C-1 E/A is the guitar for you when you need to play electric and acoustic guitar in the same song. Nothing's more frustrating than having to sacrifice the beautiful sound of an acoustic guitar for an electric during a live performance, and Sweetwater knows that. Enter the Schecter C-1 E/A. Go from a rocking electric guitar tone to a rich, full-bodied acoustic guitar sound, and even mix them for a tone that's all your own. The C-1 E/A is your one stop for all the usable tones you need.





Fishman Powerbridge for copping acoustic tones





You know when a company uses any products from Fishman in their design that the acoustic sounds are going to be top-notch. This definitely applies for the C-1 E/A. Perfect for times you need to switch from acoustic to electric guitar mid-song, this could be the only guitar you play through your whole gig. A flick of the toggle is all it takes to shift from electric to acoustic tones. Or, you can get a huge, layered sound with both tones at the same time.

Schecter Diamond Plus humbucking pickups with coil tap for a plethora of electric sounds





Think having the Powerbridge is nice? You also get the proprietary Schecter Diamond Plus humbucking pickups with coil tap. That's the equivalent of the sounds of four different guitars. With humbucking, single-coil, acoustic, and layered acoustic-electric sounds, there isn't a gig out there that this guitar won't be able to handle with ease.





Semi-hollowbody design offers rich warm response





What's not to love about a semi-hollow electric guitar? It adds a warmth and dimension to your tone that can't be found on a solidbody. It also adds a classic look to the top of the instrument. The C-1 E/A has this in spades with its original take on the F-hole. And that doesn't even mention the weight relief it will offer you. Play it electric or acoustic, have it on your shoulder all night long, and look good doing it!
