A retro-modern axe with custom touches and smooth playability.

The Corsair Bigsby is Schecter's take on the classic semi-hollowbody electric guitar and a neo-vintage six-string that rules for rock. Its three-piece mahogany neck is shaped to deliver comfortable, effortless play with an ebony fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets. The semi-hollow maple body is topped with flamed maple and fixed with two Duncan Designed humbuckers (with coil-splitting) that whisper and wail with plenty of firepower. The Bigsby B-70 vibrato gives you extra expression while rock-solid Gotoh tuners keep you in tune.

Love this guitar

Posted by Joe B. from salisbury, NC on Jul 4, 2009

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: N/A

Reviewer's Play Style: Blues, rock, some country.

I recently purchased a Schecter Corsair Bigsby. When I first took it out of the box I was blown away. What a beautiful instrument, the workmanship is flawless. I got the gloss walnut finish, love the look of this guitar. The 18/1 Grovers are great, and the Duncan pickups really give you a wide range of tones, mellow enough for Blues or Jazz and can punch out face melting solos. Playing Blues is my first love, but also play some country and rock. Over the last 30+ yrs. I've bought 3 Martins, an original Gibson Fretless Wonder and 3 Strats and recently a Schecter Dameon Series which I was impressed with. Every thing about this guitar smacks of quality, the hardware, the tone, and craftsmanship

As BB King would have put it, “I’ve been downhearted baby, ever since. . .” well, since I sold my Les Paul thirty years ago. That is until I bought my Schecter Corsair Bixby this winter. The workmanship is flawless, from the smooth way the frets fit the neck to the way it stays in tune to the complete lack of crackle and hum. My favorite feature is the thin neck; I’ve played several Fenders and Gibsons and own a Martin, and I much prefer the way this neck invites me to play for hours without fatigue. Tinkering with the push/pull knobs and toggling between pickups gives me warm jazz and blues to sweet Southern roots rock. Don’t buy it if you’re needed for anything else because you will be addicted. Well worth lots more money.

Schecter Corsair w/ Bigsby

Posted by Tolwyn from NC on Mar 5, 2008

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Playing for 30+ years.

Reviewer's Play Style: everything I can

I recently purchased a bunch of equipment and recieved a great deal on this guitar as a 'throw-in' to the package I was buying. I cannot state enough: The guitars craftsmanship is tight and much attention is paid to detail. I purchased 4 guitars, amongst other equipment, and I have not been able to put this guitar down.

I am astounded at the clear sounds I can get out of the guitar - whether in clean mode or overdriven. I can play anything from Stanley jordan and Chet atkins right up to Seether and most any heavy metal drop tuned rythyms out there.

mids are not muddy at all..they shine right thru the mix, be it on DAW or Live.

this axe is awesome. Im blown away.

Deep rich, full and robust , kudos to Schecter.

Unbelievable

I was playing my Gibson ES-137 every day until I realized what they are selling for now. It was a gift from my wife and I would be heart-broken if something happened to it. I decided to get this Schecter as an every day guitar and one I could leave out and not worry about it when the neighbor kids are over. I am so glad I bought this guitar. I have played it so much I don’t remember what my Gibson plays like. The quality of this guitar is outstanding; I have never seen a better built guitar. The pickups are every bit as good sounding as regular Duncans’. The fit and finish are actually better than the Gibson (that is hard for me to say but it is true). If you are looking for a hollow body, this is a great guitar. I think the price is toward the upper end of the Asian guitars but it is by far the best of the bunch. Keep up the good work Schecter.

Best 335 Copy

Posted by Groovedude from Lancaster, CA on Jul 24, 2007

After wanting a 335 for many years I looked around at every affordable clone. I was just about to buy something different, but then had a chance to play the Corsair. After inspecting the build quality and noting the features I was amazed. The only bad thing is the 1 5/8 nut this is not 1 11/16 as is advertised--at least mine isn't. It was also hard to find a case for it, I found a foam acoustic case and filled it with extra padding. I bought it with different pickups installed and will eventually rewire it. I have several guitars and this was the best buy!
