Designed for Maximum Versatility and Performance

If you’ve ever seen one of Rob Scallon’s videos, you know how much sonic ground he needs his guitars to cover — it’s not abnormal to see him go from scorching meme metal crunch to introspective Midwest-emo inspired cleans in a matter of minutes on his “Album in a Day” series with Andrew Huang. With that in mind, it's really no surprise that the Schecter C-8 Multi-scale Rob Scallon 8-string electric guitar is a truly do-it-all instrument, more than up to the challenge of keeping up with Rob's wide-ranging musical requirements. The C-8 Multi-scale Rob Scallon boasts a beautifully understated swamp ash body and neck-through mahogany 3-piece neck, with carbon fiber reinforcement rods for unyielding stability. Two Schecter Diamond ’78 Rob Scallon pickups bring the PAF punch but are adapted and modified to Rob's need for greater tonal flexibility. What’s more, a Hipshot Hardtail bridge and Hipshot Grip-Lock tuners offer an incredible level of tuning stability and versatile performance — a prerequisite when your days typically include djenting through a modular synth one minute, then cranking out Metallica’s entire catalog in a 4-minute video in the next!

High-performance neck-through design

The core of the C-8 Multi-scale Rob Scallon is the incredible 3-piece mahogany neck, supercharged with several high-performance specs as per Rob’s request. First off, the neck-through design significantly increases both resonance and sustain, while the carbon fiber reinforcement rods keep your neck straight and true. A 25.5–27-inch scale length allows both ends of the C-8's tonal spectrum to shine — ideal for Rob's frequent ventures into down-tuned djent chug. Finally, a sleek ebony fingerboard sports a flat 20-inch radius and medium jumbo frets that make even the widest of bends a breeze.

Dual Diamond ’78 Rob Scallon humbuckers

To meet Rob’s versatile sonic requirements, the C-8 Multi-scale Rob Scallon comes loaded with a ’78 Special Rob Scallon bridge pickup and a Diamond ’78 Rob Scallon neck pickup for a PAF-style humbucker tone, but with a modern twist. These pickups are capable of some seriously heavy tonal lifting, offering the sparkling cleans of tracks like “Rain” while still retaining the ability to switch to full-on metal aggression during Rob’s heavier moments. Diamond '78 pickups are a perfect pair for the C-8’s extended range, producing a fierce amount of low-end aggression while always remaining clear and present. Plus, this C-8 boasts a dialed-down utilitarian control scheme, with a single push/pull volume, tone, and 3-way switch.

Driving music content innovation since 2007

Since 2007, Rob Scallon has been setting the standard for YouTube music content creators, producing everything from banjo-infused metal covers to an educational series on little-known world instruments. While Rob’s innovative videos frequently wander into the absurd, the electric guitar is never far from his reach, providing the backbone of his idiosyncratic music interests.
