Expertly Crafted for a Classic Feel with a Modern Sound
Available only at Sweetwater, this USA Custom Shop Schechter PT is jaw-dropping beauty with a beastly growl. With two Schecter Pasadena humbucking pickups packed into its swamp ash slab body, the USA PT Custom has a slightly overwound bite and growl for a delicious rock ‘n’ roll crunch. Guitarists at Sweetwater are huge fans of Schecter’s supremely comfortable “C” profile neck, featured on the USA PT Custom. For chording or ripping leads, the USA PT Custom always feels right at home in your hands. The Schecter USA PT Custom is a classy and classic premium instrument with a rich, modern sound that discerning tone chasers will adore!
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 swamp 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 USA PT Custom with a beautiful quilted maple top, which also 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 can wind the Pasadena Zebra humbucking pickups found in the USA 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. 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. Rosewood 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.
