Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Left-handed 7-string Schecter with a Floyd Rose and dual humbuckers, built for players who tune low and use the trem hard.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Lefty players who want a 7-string without ordering a custom build
- Drop and extended-range riffing that needs a stable low string
- Dive bombs and trem work without going out of tune
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who change tunings often — a Floyd makes that slow
- Anyone new to guitar; seven strings and a locking trem add work
- Clean, vintage, or jazz tones — this is voiced modern
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Floyd Rose bridge
Locks the strings at nut and bridge. Pitch stays put under heavy trem use, but restringing takes longer.
Detail 03
HH pickups
Two humbuckers, no single coil. Thick and quiet under high gain; less spank on cleans.
Detail 04
Left-handed
Body, nut, and controls are mirrored. This is a true lefty build, not a flipped right-handed guitar.
Detail 05
Black Cherry finish
Dark red that reads near-black in low light and shows the red under stage lighting.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Floyd setup: budget shop time for tuning stability and action after shipping
- 02Seven-string sets and Floyd tools are separate purchases
- 03String changes on a locking trem take longer than a hardtail
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this a real left-handed guitar?
Yes. It's built left-handed, with the body contours, nut, and control layout mirrored — not a right-handed guitar strung backwards.
02Can I tune down on this?
The seventh string is made for lower tuning. With a Floyd, though, any tuning change means resetting the bridge, so pick one and stay there.
03How hard is it to change strings?
Slower than a standard bridge. You unlock the nut clamps, replace one string at a time, retune, then re-clamp and fine-tune.
04Does the Floyd stay in tune?
Once set up properly, yes — that's the point of a locking system. It holds pitch through hard trem use.
