Used Schecter RIOT 8 Modern Metal Electric Guitar Black 8-String

This Schecter Riot-8 in Black is an 8-string monster built for extended-range riffing and modern low-end authority. With its sleek double-cut body and aggressive styling, it’s designed to handle the demands of progressive metal, djent, and heavy groove-driven styles. It includes the original hard case, giving you solid protection whether you’re heading to rehearsal or the stage.

The Riot-8 platform is known for delivering tight, articulate low frequencies without sacrificing clarity in the higher register. An extended scale and well-balanced construction help maintain string tension and definition across all eight strings, making complex chord voicings and fast alternate picking feel controlled and precise. Schecter has earned a strong reputation among modern heavy players for building instruments that stay stable under high gain and down-tuned pressure, and the Riot-8 continues that tradition with confidence.
