Jan 3, 2017 - One more UNIQUE Tele' that came out of Van Nuys. The serial number is less than 25 numbers away from Pete's Schecter in the Rock 'n'. The pickups are all original Schecter and feature a single-single-humbucker. Research repair shop was opened in 1976 by David Schecter in Van Nuys, California. A Roger Giffin/Schecter guitar, no serial number, Telecaster style body in.
Rare doesn't begin to describe this 100% original early Schecter from the original shop in Van Nuys. It has the correct 'S' serial number and the number on mine is less than 25 numbers away from Pete Townshend's black Schecter in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame. Featherweight and with all the right appointments including three Monstertone pickups with 3 way paddles and coil taps on both vol and tone pots. Tele shaped body with a tremolo bridge (no, I do not have the arm).
Because of the lightweight and grain showing through, I believe it's a basswood body finished in gold with lacquer over. There is a ding on the back, lower edge and some stress finish cracks near the neck screws.
Neck is full and fine with zero wear. One piece maple neck with skunk stripe features flatter than vintage radius and medium jumbo frets. Guitar is just stunning.
Note: I have owned this guitar for about 15 years and I've never turned a screw on it and I'm not going to be the one to break the neck seal to see the butt of the neck and the pocket. I would keep it, but I'm retired now and it's time to let go of my stuff. $7,500 and you will never, ever see another one.

Hello, Here is your chance to own a RARE and KILLER Early USA Schecter exotic woods from golden Van Nuys era. Loaded Pick guard is NOT original Van Nuys era I wouldn't sell if i didn't own a pretty rare Callaham S model which considered to be the best among the best strats out there. Shipping will be express airmail. Excellent condition except a small scratch on the body (check last photo) and a few hairline scratches i can't even capture with my camera.Also gold saddles on the brass bridge show some oxidation.
What we have here is a Shedua Neck and a pretty rare Teak wood body one piece. It's a stunning grain pattern and tonally rich of harmonics. Really expensive piece of wood. Neck's serial number L7070 refers to Shedua wood (left handed neck) & F6060 refers to Teak wood according to Schecter catalog. The electronics are EARLY Bartolini noiseless pickups. They sound about as vintage Fender as you will find-except no hum!
They sound phenomenal! God these pups just rock. The bridge is a brass hardtail bridge, as all of that era Schecter guitars have.
