Schecter PT Standard Electric Guitar, Aged Cherry Burst

Full Description

Swamp Ash Body

The Schecter has a body crafted from Swamp Ash, creating a lightweight and resonant guitar. The Swamp Ash delivers sweet, airy tones with a twangy feel, and offers firm lows, pleasing highs, and slightly scooped mids. The body allows each note to articulate, providing a full sound that has an excellent sustain. The guitar also features a vintage ashtray bridge with staggering brass saddles, chrome hardware, and an aged cherry burst finish.

Maple Neck and Fingerboard

The Maple neck and fingerboard gives the guitar some tightness and cut, providing an edge of sizzle to the highs and firmness to its lows. The Maple wood provides bright characteristics to the overall tone, whilst offering a snappy attack in the midrange. When the strings are played hard, the wood produces more punch to the tone, and when played with light or medium picking, then tone has excellent clarity. The guitar also comes with many other features including a Graph Tech nut, Grover machine heads that provide smooth, fine tuning and great stability, and dot inlays on the fretboard.
