the Schecter you are refering to is the C1 Special
i prefer the PRS SE version as the default p-90s are more appealing tone-wise. playability-wise, both guitars are comparable. the schecters C-1 models are better-sounding with humbuckers IMO.
sub, how does the I-21 Brian Moore at Davis, fair amongst the other single cut-aways mentioned? the BM headstock does give its own 'look'. similar pricing.
Mr. Paul sir 8) this one is IMO a singlecut version of the i8I which i've tried. the neck is kinda wider for this one, then again it might be marginal to some of us.
tone-wise, more polished midrange from this baby- covered pickups. does it manifest a Les Paul tone? not quite.
cheers to that - single cutaway with its own midrange specialty. definitely an option to those into this tonal offer and the mahogany LP style body cut.
the Tokai ALC models are good. the general expectations for it is that it should match a average Les Paul, which will make it a shadow of what it's supposed to be. if you plug it into a minute practice amp in the stores, you should at least give it another audition.
