One of Schecter s hottest from the early 80s is back.

The Schecter PT-Standard Electric Guitar is a remake of one of Schecter's hottest guitars from the early '80s. Originally a custom guitar, the PT-Standard is now available to more musicians as part of the Schecter Diamond Series.

The PT-Standard guitar has a creme bound alder body of traditional shape, bolt-on rock maple neck (25-1/2" scale), maple fingerboard with dot inlays. 2 tapped Duncan Designed Superock humbucker pickups lay down thick and meaty tones, or give you jangly single-coil sounds when split. The Schecter PT-Standard is one of the more versatile guitars around.

The pictures here dont do this guitar justice. This thing looks so much better in person. The creme binding is beautiful (matches the maple neck and fretboard great). It sounds exelent. I played this at a local store for about 10 min. Then I picked up a Fender Tele HH with 2 real Seymour Duncans. I thought the sound of the Fender would top it but I was wrong. I tried to coil tap it but I heard no difference. So i picked up the Schecter PT again and pulled the coil tap knob and I was sold. Ill be back in a few days with some cash to pick this baby up.

This is the first time I have ever reviewed a guitar befor. My buddy got one of these a few years ago and he never played it. Let me borrow it and I loved it. His was not the re release, but it was the same guitar. I normally play on les pauls, but his guitar sounds so good and plays so well that I thought about switching. I have looked for this guitar for a while and I will buy it. Eddie Vedder used to play one of these, and he still might. After playing one I can see why.

I own a 2007 PT Fastback 3 Tone Burst and for those of you who have never seen one, I'm sorry. This guitar has the looks of and feel of superior quality. With two Duncan Designs and coil tapping abilities on both I can acheive just about any sound that I want. If you are going to spend the money for a PT, go ahead and get the Fastback for the same price. I own 15 guitars and have had hundreds but this is forever in my top 3 for the money. PT I love you!!!!!!!!

I bought one of these a couple years ago as a backup to my vintage 73 Thinline Tele, and now I use the Schecter more. It has a wider, flatter, easier neck. The "Duncan Designed" humbuckers sound pretty good and the coil tap is a nice feature. I can get a fair shot at a single coil Telecaster whine using the coil tap. The guitar is very sturdy and the workmanship is excellent. Very nice guitars for a fair price.
