From the Jazz clubs of Harlem to the Greenwich Village Folk scene, the semi-hollow body design shaped the course of electric guitar history. Now, Schecter have put their stamp on the legacy. The Corsair takes inspiration from the 1930s classic and reinvents it for the modern player. Iconic heritage. Contemporary innovation. Working together in harmony.
Prepare to set sail on a sea of tonal diversity. The Corsair is much more than a pirate’s treasure. Two signature humbucker pickups project the warm, mellow character of the hollow body, retaining its bright charisma with glassy clarity. Whether you’re a smooth Jazz improviser, a swampy Blues shredder, or a superior Rock icon, you’ll always find balanced tone that any buccaneer would want to get their hands on. This is a true diamond in the rough.

Get lost in the past
The true sound of the 30s. Brought to you by Schecter. The Corsair is as warm and charismatic as the decade that inspired it. Go from mellow jazz to swampy blues and everything in between. It’s all possible thanks to two Diamond 78’ pickups. Both humbuckers work together to bring dynamic expression to any style of playing, emphasising the rounded sound of the hollow body. Whether up high or down low, each pickup is fully responsive to pick attack, remaining clear across the entire frequency range. That means bright tops, balanced bottoms, and enough midrange to get you grooving. Switch things up with the push/pull coil split. Alongside classic humbucker grit, the Corsair delivers realistic single coil charm, perfect for those improvised riffs you know and love.
The definition of southern comfort
Party all night. And never get tired. The Corsair puts comfort first, so you can spend more time getting loose with your favourite riffs. Hit the town on a mahogany neck that’s sculpted for buttery playability. The thin C shape gives you the freedom to play chords and scales without straining your hand, whilst finger positioning feels smooth thanks to 22 medium frets. No matter what style you love, you’ll be playing in comfort. And with a choice cut of ebony on the fingerboard, you’ll never lose that grit and sustain from your pickups. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a real Harlem Juke Joint.
A bridge to perfection
Prepare to put a wobble in your knees. The Corsair gives you everything you need to add that modern flair to your 30s style riffs. And it’s all thanks to Schecter’s bespoke tremolo system. The tremolo arm is fully responsive, allowing for smooth action and playability. Whether you’re adding a touch of vibrato or reaching new heights with pitch bends, the Roller Tune-O-Matic keeps every string singing in key. Each saddle is fully adjustable, so you can tweak your intonation until it’s pitch perfect. That means flawless tone at every fret. Your solos have never sounded better.
