Schecter USA PT Custom - Charcoal Grey with Racing Stripe (New)
Schecter
US-Custom-Shop-built Schecter
The eye-popping finish on this Schecter PT Custom gives you a good idea of how aggressive it sounds and how fast it plays. Carved from a slab of alder, this lightweight axe supplies you with the characteristic tone that's been a part of some of the most enduring pieces of rock. Want to push your amp into beautiful saturation? This PT Custom's twin Brimstone humbuckers are guaranteed to deliver the goods. And if you like it fast, you'll find that this guitar's satin-finished ebony-capped neck was built for breaking speed barriers. Complete with a headstock that matches its distinctive finish, there's a lot to love about this US-Custom-Shop-built Schecter.
Stunning PT-style construction
The PT is one of Schecter's most identifiable models. Since its beginning in the hands of Pete Townshend, the PT has been a dyed-in-the-wool rocker while tipping its hat to a vintage platform. Its alder body is a popular choice for its balanced characteristics. No matter what you play, you can be assured that your tone will be injected with equal doses of lows, mids, and highs. Beyond that, this PT Custom looks as great as it sounds, with a distinctive finish and a matching headstock.
Powerfully voiced electronics
Schecter has made a name for itself as a So. Cal.-based rock 'n' roll guitar company. So it makes complete sense that they’re able to wind the Brimstone humbucking pickups found in this PT Custom to nail classic hard rock tones with ease. Plug into a high-gain amp and enjoy gorgeous saturation, or back off and experience crunchy overdrive — the choice is yours. Even clean, Brimstones can cut through the busiest of mixes. The guitarists at Sweetwater love these hostile-yet-responsive humbuckers!
Just-right playability
This Schecter PT Custom's neck is expertly carved from a piece of rock-hard maple. Ebony caps the neck with a 14" radius. Its Custom "C" profile is an exquisite balance of hand-filling comfort and fleet-fingered playability. Add a fingerboard outfitted with extremely durable Jascar 6100 fretwire and a TUSQ nut that ensures your strings never bind, and the PT Custom plays as beautifully as it looks.
