Schecter PT Electric Guitar (Gloss Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Do you remember the 80's? There was some great music back then. We actually had guitar gods as they were called. Many companies made some great guitars back then. Charvel, Kramer, and a little known parts company named Schecter, who made guitars for guitarist like Mark Knopler, Pete Townsend, and others. The Schecter PT was made for Pete Townsend of THE WHO. He used this back in the early 80's. I have always loved the look of this guitar, although I was not into tele style guitars back then, I just loved the way this guitar looked. Today, it has the same look and vibe, but the headstock changed, I guess because Schecter did not want to get sued by Fender for using the tele shaped headstock. Anyway, this guitar looks and sounds great. The pickups are hot(Schecter brand) and the neck plays smooth as silk, butter, whatever you want to compare it to. As I have gotten older(43) I have come to appreciate tele's and tele style guitars. I love this guitar, and the way it plays. The guitar has a slick, black mirror image finish on it. You can literely see your self in it. I play alot of 80's type pop/rock, new wave stuff, Duran Duran, Andy Taylor, The Outfield, also some WHO, and this guitar nails it all thru my CAA 50 classic head. I like this guitar so much, I bought two, one for a backup. Great guitar, great price. Welcome back to THE 80's my friend.

Schecter Synyster Gates Custom Electric Guitar (Black Gloss, Pimp Stripe) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar is absolutely amazing. It looks great, the silver stripes are just awesome. The floyd rose tremolo works very well, along with the locking nuts, which cause the guitar to never go out of tune. It has a great metal sound, you can have the amp on clean and still hear a little bit of distortion from the seymour duncan's, which can be split to achieve a nicer clean. Overall great guitar, i would recommend it, the only thing i don't like is that the floyd rose makes it hard to change the tuning.

Wake the fallen with this Schecter, Synyster Gates of Avenged Sevenfold's signature model. Designed to Syn's rocking specs, it's a new twist on Schecter's Hellraiser, with a mahogany body and set neck, a slick ebony fingerboard featuring wicked "SYN" and DeathBat inlays, Seymour Duncan Custom Invader humbuckers, a Floyd Rose and then some, all wrapped up in a gloss black finish with silver pinstripes.

Mahogany Neck and Body with "Synyster" Looks This guitar delivers warm, defined tone and a ton of sustain, featuring a 25.5-inch scale mahogany set neck and mahogany body.
The slick ebony fretboard boasts 24 jumbo frets, and Schecter's 'Ultra Access' cutaway means you can reach those ultra-high notes with ease.
As for looks, this axe has plenty. The Hellraiser body shape is a long-time winner. The black finish and silver pinstripes are both killer and classy, with black hardware to top it off. Custom "SYN" inlays and the the "Deathbat" at the 12th fret make it even better, for a unique and striking instrument.
Custom Seymour Duncan SH-8 Invader Pickups Perfect for aggressive playing styles, SH-8s are high-output humbuckers combining three ceramic magnets, over-wound coils and twelve black oxide cap screws, for the heaviest tone a passive pickup can produce. Get the power you need for brutal rhythm playing or squealing harmonics.
A three-way switch selects between pickups, and the coil-tap on the tone knob lets you switch to a single coil sound.
Original Floyd Rose Tremolo System The patented and often imitated double-locking design of the Floyd Rose Tremolo System allows you to lock your guitar in tune at the nut and at the bridge. Engineered like no other tremolo system, the Floyd's high-quality steel parts are manufactured to exacting specifications. Beat it up as much as you want--from traditional vibrato to dive bombing leads or flapping loose strings, and stay in tune while you do it.
Black Hardware Black hardware completes this axe's looks, from the volume/tone knobs to the grover tuners and aforementioned Floyd Rose.
