Anybody have/play one of these? Been looking for an LP knock-off and found a used one pretty cheap. Anybody know anything about the USA Custom Shop Pasadena/Plus pickups?

Compound radius, slim C neck, locking tuners, Tonepros hardware, Earvana nut, ebony fingerboard... On paper, it's perfect! Not much on the net about the pickups..

No help with the pickups but that is a good looking guitar.

I really like the natural sides and back. That's sexy as hell. I really liked the last Schecter Korean guitar I had. Quality was top-notch.
 
Yeah, that's a great looking guitar, but I'm totally done with every LP knockoff having that ugly 3 knob layout (ESP, Jackson, Schecter etc). I can't help on the pickups, but lets face it, it's an easy swap if they're really not what you're looking for.

Yeah, a Seymour Duncan Custom fixes everything. :thumbsup:
 
Want to see the heel and headstock. Does look cool.

Yes, the natural sides and back are badass. That's a beautiful guitar.
 
I like Schecter pickups. I think they sound great I’ve played 3 different kinds.
 
I played the Pasadena Classic (bridge) in a USA Traditional strat, so I can't really comment the Pasadena neck and the Pasa Plus, but I liked it a lot, it's a very articulat, clear and singin' pickup. The Pasa Plus is said to be a pushed version, some describe it as a blend of Classic 57 with a touch of Duncan Custom 5.

All Schecter CS pickups (not the stock in lower end Schecter models, which are of course different) I've played were very good tho, the philosophy behind them their pups is articulaion, clarity and muscularity.
 
That heel carve is what I wanted to see. That looks super comfy.
 
Other than the block inlays and natural grain back, it looks to be the same as my Solo ATX.
 
This one looks rad as well

If they did the same sides and back on the natural, I'd be all over it. But, they did black?? Don't get that thinking....
