I would say this guitar needed to be reasonably priced for beginners a all day kids, as I don’t think many other players would want a mgk guitar.

    If you remove the MGK name from the guitar this would probably be a hit. Maybe the color is a little eye catching but I feel like that’s the point, I think a lot of guitarists would love this thing for how simple it is and ESPECIALLY with the fit and finish myself and many others love from Schecter. We all know MGK is a polarizing figure but it’s a fact that MGK is pretty much the face of the guitar for a lot of kids and makes them want to learn how to play. I know from speaking to a lot of teens around my age MGK and Taylor Swift are their Eddie Van Halen or Jimi Hendrix, they look at these pop stars on stage playing bright pink guitar rocking TF out and think that they want to do that and so they go out and buy a guitar. He’s be associated with the brand for years and is a major artist that has major pull when it comes to younger people, this only makes sense to do and getting mad just makes videos talking about it do better.

    @@Iceman93x At least they're inspiring kids to pick up a guitar. Just a few years ago, there was a magazine article that declared the guitar, and guitar-based music, dead. EDM was the new, big thing, and everyone should put down their instruments and learn how to use a DJ rig and a synth, because that's how music, at least the stuff that mattered, was going to be made from then on. Fast forward just over four years, and guitar sales are breaking records, and not just to people who already play; people have been learning to play in droves, and they cite Taylor Swift, MGK, Ed Sheeran, and so on as their inspiration to do so. As they learn the instrument more there's an excellent chance they're going to discover those "better influences" you're talking about. Hell, just look at some of the reaction channels on here and see what the younger crowd are saying about guitar music. The point is, who cares why people are picking up a guitar. Enjoy the fact that they're doing so at all.

And if they don’t want that guitar specifically then I can almost gaurentee that will like one of the other guitars he uses because they are super fun and quirky and make people excited because of all the switches and everything. 1k is a lot of money but kids today are willing to save money to get something nice, or they could just come from a well of family that is willing to help the kid out and give/loan them the money to get it

    You all realize that signature guitars NEVER were about 'rewarding' good guitarists, but always were a marketing scheme to sell more guitars, right? Guitar companies don't care about how good a guitarist is, but about how many fans they have that may be willing to buy a guitar with their name on it. MGK is one of the most popular rock artists/guitarists right now, so why shouldn't Schecter release a signature model for him?

    Yes, but it used to take a GOOD guitarist to successfully market a signature model. That association lent credibility to the instrument. This is some dude who failed at being a rapper, got run out of the genre because he picked a fight with Eminem, and decided pop-punk was a safer option. He's probably best known for being the dude currently nailing Megan Fox. My thoughts? These guitars will sell more because of the features than the fact it has MGK's name on it. I'd also wager that there will be people who won't buy it because his name is on it (and the price increase signature models always have), who might have otherwise been interested in a guitar with those specs.

I remember they made Avril Lavigne signature Squiers back in the days (and it had quite a long run), even before that there was Kiss trying to turn anything into merch, I don't know how things started but I wouldn't be surprised if they actually were the first ones trying to milk the cow. As long as you were mainstream you had your chance. Let's keep in mind that quite recently Ibanez actually let Tosin Abasi design his own guitar before he moved to his own brand, we've had Brent Hinds and Jim Root getting some attention, Zack Myers made the most beautiful PRS a few years ago in my opinion... It's just all accross the place.

    There really should be more 1-pickup guitars (that aren't only P90 "Junior" models). They are very reliable in a live performance context; having something with more controls is great for creativity and studio, but if you have a dynamic enough base tone that you can get clean and dirty via your volume knob you free yourself up a PILE at a gig.

And while I'm being honest, I'm such a contrarian all the hate makes me love it more. Like how one of the guitars on my collection list is Courtney Love's old Squire signature. It's a unique guitar too but it's so polarizing that it just makes me want it more. I bought an SX Liquid for the same reason (but it's pretty sweet, best guitar at the $200 range I've ever played). I guess I'm weird, I dunno.

I get that's just aesthetics, and specs IMO are great here, but still...if it's a signature artist series, they should've gotten that right. And I know MGK has several PTs and some have this headstock logo, but I'd be willing to bet those were to promote this eventual release. I also have no qualms with this being an import guitar, but I expect the price to reflect that. Correct the headstock logo and charge $650, and then I think Schecter would've had a winner on their hands. I think the new Billie Joe Armstrong signature from Epiphone is a better buy for pop punk fans. This Schecter may arguably be better, but Epiphone really only cut a couple of corners with Armstrong's and met a much more reasonable price point for us poor pop punk fans.

I use it for two songs in our set just to have a crazy looking guitar.. also I found $1000 awesome most of my guitars are over $3-4 grand so to me this is a cheap guitar !..edit year or so later i still play this guitar live for most of the set… I haven’t changed a thing …it kills it

    Cool, but is it $150 more better then a Silver Sky SE? The silver sky pretty much moped the floor with the fender player strat in dylantalkstone video, could it go above its weight class and knock out the Machine Gun Kelly? People say 1k is much,but i have a feeling you get a lot of guitar for this money compared to say even a Silver Sky SE perhaps? John Mayer tko'd a no named mexican strat, and now is going up against MGK for ultimate mass produced signature guitar? who will win? is this even a fair fight? stay tuned...

    Looks interesting, definitely a conversation stater, however for $1000? Don't know how I feel about that, I know most signatures cost even more than that, but from a functional standpoint you can probably find a $300-500 that looks better, has better and more pickups and is probably easier on the eyes too.

    Okay, follow up comment after watching the video. I do like the matte black on the neck. And I know it plays well that wasn't going to be a concern. Most guitars these days play well, even the cheap ones. I'm not a fan of the color pink... even as a punk pop guitar. But you said a Kelly style bridge... is that as in machine gun kelly style bridge? How did MGK get his own bridge?!? I don't like the way it looks. The guitar is really not my cup of tea but im sure it play fantastic. Probably better than most of my guitars lol but to me, I need a guitar that just screams at me to play it. This is certainly screaming at me lol as you said it is a very loud color... but it's not saying "play me." And the soft rounded edges.. I'm good. Schecter is a good company so im certain its a quality product if this is ur thing.

    While thats a lot of pink I think as a template for signatures, stickers or any type of art added to it would really stand out. Feels like a lead singers guitar and the kill switch makes sense. Having a black neck is ideal and in a tele style is a nice blend. Overall good tone but probably a bit out of reach for starting guitarists. Steve vai and mgk have different fan bases in terms of age and means and the guitar should attempt to reflect that. 1k is too much and I dont think a similar Green Day model would command as much in my day. Lastly wouldnt neck through be much better for music like this where sustain seems to be a key factor?

    If this came in metallic purple or flat radioactive neon green, it would be dope as fuck. I'd love to see a single pickup guitar like that with a Seymour Duncan P-Rails or P-Rails Hot, and have a "toggle" to select between P90, Single rail, and humbucking, with a push/pull volume for series/parallel, the same kill switch, etc. If any company made a guitar like that, regardless of shape (so long as it's not one of those abominable shapes from Gibson, those things still give me psychic damage just thinking of them) I'd probably buy it.

    I've always been a fan of schecter until yesterday unfortunately. I received my c1sls elite evil twin new in box and sad to say I'm sending it back. Fit and finish is Terrible. Should be a b stock but I payed full price. So many flaws in the finish, a couple smudges in the satin coat on the top,and some minor scratches as well, the white binding is already yellowing in some spots and Brite white in others, and stain smears on the binding around headstock and where neck meets body, and two locking tuners have pretty significant scratches on them, this is factory new out of box,never opened and demoed. Very disappointing. Also for everyone arguing about locking tuners,to wrap or not to wrap, it came with two full wraps on each post for what it's worth.
