As far as I know, nobody in Ireland stocks them. Infact, they're pretty rare all over europe.

Ive seen them in instrumental before, but that may have been a second hand one they had.

I think they have a dealer in Germany but as far as I know there's nothing official over here. For what it's worth, speaking from experience, the Diamond series are excellent guitars for the money, you can't really go wrong.

Schecters are sexy guitars fullstop, deadly to play and they come with duncans as standard(or at least they did its been a while since i almost bought one).

Schecters are the ONLY guitars ill buy or use pretty much. I own two and both are pretty rare even in the states. Found The Ultra III in a little shop in Edinburgh and picked up my C1 XXX In Detroit.

In the states, just look for the nearest Guitar Center. They have almost as big a presence there as Fender and Gibson.

I get a pretty good blues sound out of mine, but the other day someone picked it up and started playing some metal with the Triple Rectifier setting on my Microcube and dropped-D tuning. I said 'Whoa....cooool!" It does metal too!

They're also one of the few guitar manufacturers who do a nice range of 7 Strings. Basically, it's just Schecter and Ibanez if you want a 7.
