Schecter PT Standard Electric Guitar. Purple Burst Burl

Schecter’s PT model bridges the gap between classic T-style twang and modern metal malice, making it a favorite among genre-hopping guitarists. The Schecter PT Standard brings the company’s penchant for high-octane audiovisual aesthetics to all, sparing no effort to meld sonorous tonewoods, versatile playability, and potent Schecter-designed pickups into a single, powerful axe. Crafted from a quartet of burl, mahogany, maple, and rosewood, the Schecter PT Standard makes good on the company’s longstanding practice of deploying premium materials for every axe, regardless of price. Pair this with its high-speed neck, 24-fret spread, and eye-catching finish, and you’ve got a fully-fledged powerhouse brimming with onboard sonic contouring potential.

Premium foundations for all
Schecter’s Standard series models expand the scope of accessibility to their lauded designs, doing so without compromising the dedication to quality that defines them. The PT Standard is no exception, with its cornerstone comprising a burl-topped mahogany body, providing a rich, harmonically deep foundation that’s well balanced, with headroom to spare. The roasted maple neck augments the aural properties of the guitar’s top, imbuing your sound with full-spectrum brightness and excellent note separation, allowing chords, riffs, leads, and licks to shine through with plenty of definition. A rosewood fingerboard completes the PT Standard’s tonewood quartet, enshrining your sound in a crystalline veneer that adds presence to every register without sacrificing articulation.

House-made pickups for tailored sonic contouring
In keeping the sonic complexity of the PT Standard’s tonewood assemblage in mind, Schecter spared no effort in supplying this axe with the tools needed to bring its foundational tones to life in electrifying voicing. The bridge- and neck-mounted positions each feature their respective iteration of Schecter’s Diamond Standard passive humbuckers, supporting a range of sonorous cleans and smoldering riffs to high-octane distortions and scorching solos. A 3-way pickup selector is joined by Master Volume and Tone control knobs, but don’t let this straightforward arrangement fool you: the PT Standard is rife with tone-crafting possibilities, ensuring virtually any style is primed for premium performance.

Engineered for versatile, powerful performances
With versatility in spades, the PT Standard is outfitted to accommodate multitudes of playstyles. Twenty-four frets sprawl its 25.5-inch scale, while the fretboard’s 14-inch radius, alongside the Thin “C”-shaped neck, are complemented by the iconic curvature of the T-style silhouette. Combining all this with its sculpted heel and treble-side cutaway provides uninhibited access to its wealth of latent sonic-sculpting possibilities. Speaking of accessibility, if you’re curious as to why the PT Standard features explicitly a roasted maple neck, then we’ve got you covered. Unlike conventional maple, roasting maple increases the wood’s dimensional stability. Doing this not only enhances the sonic relationships between itself and the other tonewoods, but significantly reduces the risk of twisting or warping. It all adds up to the PT Standard being the ideal road warrior with robust resilience to changing environments.
