US Custom Shop–built Schecter
This Schecter USA PT Custom has it all: aggressive sound, fast action, and eye-popping looks. A solid slab of ash is topped by beautiful quilted maple, yielding both bell-like clarity and low-end warmth. Searching for punishing levels of gain? Park this PT Custom in front of your favorite amp, and its Pasadena Zebra humbuckers will 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 quilted top, 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. The ash body is a popular choice for its clear tops and bellowing lows. And to bring even more sustain and articulation to the party, Schecter caps the PT Custom with a beautiful quilted maple top, and a matching headstock finishes this guitar's top-shelf appearance.
Powerfully voiced electronics
Schecter has made a name for itself as a SoCal-based rock 'n' roll guitar company. So it makes complete sense that they are able to wind the Pasadena Zebra humbucking pickups found in the PT Custom to nail classic hard rock tones with ease. Plug this guitar straight into your higher-gain amplifier and be greeted with harmonically rich gain and notes that seem to jump right off the fingerboard. And to add a generous helping of flexibility to the guitar's palette, these pickups also sound fantastic and detailed when played clean. The guitarists at Sweetwater love these muscular-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 Jescar 6100 fret wire and a TUSQ nut that ensures your strings never bind, and the PT Custom plays as beautifully as it looks.
