    This arrived new in the box in great shape and the setup was spot on. Nice neck and fretwork. Beautiful color and flawless fit and finish (I got the red one). The Bigsby actually works quite well and stays in tune, thanks to the roller bridge I suppose. I didn't care for the stock humbuckers. They were a bit muddy sounding for my taste, so I replaced them with another brand. They also sounded muddy. So I got a set of Seymour Duncan Silencer Phat Cat humbucker-sized P90's installed, new 500k CTS pots, orange drop caps, treble bleeds, and no push/pulls. It now sounds incredible! The push/pulls were kind of hard to operate easily anyway as the Bigsby gets in the way. I am extremely happy with this guitar and would highly recommend it.

    I have been playing the PT for about 2 months and I have a hard time putting it down to play other guitars that I have. The neck is easy on the hand and the tones are great too. I play classic rock, blues and country music. You can get descent chime with the splitter for country and blues. I use this with a modified fender hot rod deluxe and a DSL 20/40 Marshall tube amps. OCD pedal and a Wampler Plexi drive work good with the Fender amp set up. The Bigsby works great and stays in tune. The bridge rollers are quality hardware. The only thing restringing is a chore, but not as bad as a Floyd, when you figure it out.

  • Excellently good

    Schecter knocked it out of the park with this one. Tele body, bigsby bridge, killer hum buckers. This guitar looks and sounds great! The tone is somewhere between classic and modern, you can get heavy tones or crisp clean tones. Great guitar highly recommend

  • Has it all!

    The candy apple sparkles. The bigsby is subtle. Very playable intonated fret and neck. Stays in tune! This is what an HH tele should be. The coil taps are more subtle than expected. Best for classic rock, but capable of any style. Cannot beat the bang for the buck.

  • Beautiful and sounds and plays wonderful
