Why are EMG's a turn off?
And i personally think you should get a different Schecter make with a floyd rose. WHats the point in getting one without? You may aswell just get a Jackson or Ibanez
Not everyone likes/uses a whammy bar. They have a LOT of inconveniences to them when it comes to playability. If you use alot of heavy palm muting or alternate picking, you'll hate it. The bridge bops up and down every time your wrist moves with those techniques. Other than that they're tons of fun.

Yeah EMG'S fucking suck, most generic tone ever. Sounds horrid on the clean channel as well. I have a schecter c-1 classic and a schecter c-1 hellraiser FR, so I can tell you they make very high quality guitars for the price. If you end up buying one with emgs ( My hellraiser still has them in, I don't have the money to change em just yet ) then just save up and buy some Duncan or Gibson pickups.
