Schecter USA Custom Shop PT Dream Machine II (Tele HH) in Walnut w/ OHSC (Rare Sweetwater Exclusive)

Big Sale Price AND Free Shipping!

When you think Schecter, do you think of metal guitars made overseas? Well nothing against those, they're fine guitars, but this here is from the USA Custom Shop, and it is in a league of its own. Welcome to the Schecter USA PT Dream Machine II in Natural Walnut Satin finish.

It looks like a tele, but it punches like a hard rock legend. The natural look combined with the stunning black machined hardware and matching machined pickguard gives it a finished look that puts other, more expensive, custom shop pieces to shame. Watch the attached YouTube video and you'll see what it's capable of (not this exact guitar, of course).

Of important note: these seem to be exceedingly rare. There are currently a grand total of ZERO listed on Reverb. The only other listing source I could find online is the Sweetwater listing for when these were sold there (for $2999 new). It mentioned they were "custom spec'd for Sweetwater," so I'd guess they're not being made anymore like this. In other words, if you want one of these, this might be one of your only chances.

Condition wise, it would be mint if not for one area on the back where the satin finish has a tiny bit of what I suppose you'd call "buckle rash." I took a lot of pics of the area to show you how it ONLY appears in the right light/angle. For the most part, it's barely visible-- especially since it's on the back. The rest of the guitar is pristine. Particularly cool is the fact that the adonized pickguard shows zero wear. It gives the guitar an eerily unplayed look.

It also comes with an excellent original hardshell case (check out the cool case logo in the pics) that is in great condition with only a few scuffs from shipping and normal use (again, see pics). The original order sheet and some other case candy completes the package.

Now I'll cheat and steal some words from Schecter/Sweetwater:

A Return to a Custom Shop Classic

The PT Dream Machine II solidbody electric guitar harkensback to Schecter's days of building high-end custom guitars in the late '70sand early '80s. The PT Dream Machine II's body is built from a rich piece ofwalnut for its large bottom end and clear highs. A duet of Schecter's USA humbucking pickups offers plenty of output. And the Schecter PTDream Machine II, from the electronics to the frets, exudes the qualitycraftsmanship that has made Schecter so popular with A-list players.

From Schecter's USA Custom Shop

In the late '70s and early '80s, Schecter Guitars outfittedsome of the world's most popular players with high-end, custom electric guitarsthat were built to the artist's specs. This PT Dream Machine II is a throwbackto those days and the original Dream Machine guitars. Built in the same USACustom Shop, the PT Dream Machine II boasts features like exotic woods, JescarGerman silver fret wire, and Schecter USA Custom Shop humbuckers. Schecter hasbeen building great guitars for years, but the PT Dream Machine II is youropportunity to own a custom piece of their history.

Exotic tonewoods

Every inch of the Schecter PT Dream Machine II solidbodyelectric guitar is built from gorgeous and exotic tonewoods. The walnut bodygives the guitar a tone with a large low end and plenty of top-end clarity. Afigured bird's-eye maple neck is capped with a 22-fret pau ferro fretboard. Pauferro is a reddish-brown wood that is smooth to the touch and helps notes jumpoff your guitar's neck. And the PT's natural satin finish allows all of thegrain and figure of the wood to show through beautifully, a feature the guitaristsat Sweetwater really dig.

High gain to crystal cleans

Onboard the PT Dream Machine II electric guitar is anelectronics package engineered to work in a variety of musical situations. Thetwo Supercharger humbucking pickups were designed and hand wound in Schecter'sUSA Custom shop. They have plenty of output for driving the front end of anamplifier or your favorite dirt boxes. But they're voiced to offer plenty ofsustain and clarity when run completely clean as well. The tonewoods usedreally bring out the warm lows and present top end. And the guitar's 25.5"scale length offers familiar bite and attack.

And now... back to the Reverb listing:

I think that about sums it up! Again, please ask any questions before buying. I will ship to the continental U.S. only, and this is an "as-is" listing. That said, I stand by my sales and my listings. I take care to mention everything to the best of my ability so you know exactly what you're getting.I have 100% 5-star ratings (80 and counting), and all the "badges" a Reverb seller can possibly have, so buy from me with confidence!

This is as affordable and awe-inspiring of a USA Custom Shop guitar as you'll ever find under $2000 used. Period.

One final note: I'm listing this at this price due to its rarity, a lack of "comps", and also because part of me doesn't entirely want to get rid of it. Just being honest. If it seems too lofty at the listed price, please consider "watching" it in case I ever drop the price, or of course feel free to send a reasonable offer.
Thanks!
