Schecter Damien Platinum 6 Electric Guitar

The Schecter Damien Platinum 6 is a guitar built for metal, with a dark, striking design to match the heavy riffs you’ll play on it. If you want a guitar that delivers professional specs and a bold look — without breaking the bank — this is the one. It’s streamlined where it matters but equipped with the hardware and electronics needed to deliver powerful sound.

The Sound of Aggression

At the heart of the Damien Platinum 6 is the legendary active pickup combo that has practically defined modern metal. Schecter didn’t mess around with proprietary house-brand pickups here; they went straight to the source to ensure this guitar punches well above its weight class.

EMG 81 Bridge Pickup: This is the industry standard for a reason. It gives you that razor-sharp, high-output attack that cuts right through dense mixes. It’s tight, aggressive, and keeps your low-end chugs articulate even under heavy distortion.

EMG 85 Neck Pickup: When you switch over to the neck, you get a smoother, more fluid lead tone. It’s got plenty of output but rounds out the edges, making it perfect for sweeping solos or clean passages that need a little more body and warmth.

Mahogany Body: The electronics are mounted into a solid mahogany body, a classic tonewood choice known for its depth and resonance. It provides a thick, muscular foundation for your tone, balancing out the biting attack of the active pickups.

Designed for Speed and Comfort

You can’t play fast if you’re fighting your instrument, and the Damien Platinum 6 is designed to get out of your way. The construction focuses on stability and access, so whether you’re playing low-slung rhythms or technical leads high up the neck, the guitar feels solid and responsive in your hands.

3-Piece Maple Neck: Maple is dense and snappy, but laminating three pieces together takes the stability to another level. This neck is incredibly resistant to warping and shifting from humidity changes, meaning your setup stays consistent longer.

Thin "C" Profile & Satin Finish: The neck shape is slim enough for rapid-fire playing but still has enough meat to feel comfortable for chords. Plus, the satin finish means your hand won't stick to the back of the neck when things get sweaty on stage.

Set-Neck with Ultra Access: The neck joint is sculpted smoothly into the body, giving you "Ultra Access" to the highest register. You can easily reach all the way up to the 24th fret without a bulky heel block digging into your palm.

Sleek Design and Durable Hardware

Let’s be honest, part of the appeal here is the look. The Damien Platinum 6 embraces a gothic vibe without looking cheap, thanks to the tasteful platinum-colored appointments against the satin black finish. But beyond the looks, the hardware is chosen to keep you in tune and playing reliably gig after gig.

Platinum Bat Inlays & Binding: The standout visual feature is the silver "Platinum" multi-ply binding and the matching bat inlays on the rosewood fretboard. It adds a premium, custom-shop flair that really pops under stage lights.

Grover Rotomatic Tuners: Tuning stability is non-negotiable. The 18:1 gear ratio on these Grover tuners allows for precise, fine adjustments and holds your pitch tight, so you aren't constantly retuning between songs.

Tune-O-Matic Bridge with String Thru: This fixed bridge design transfers string vibration directly into the body for maximum sustain. It’s simple, robust, and makes restringing and adjusting intonation a breeze compared to a floating tremolo system.
