Schecter PT Special, Made in Korea (2016) – Sunburst - Mint Condition

The Schecter PT Special is one of those rare guitars that combines classic Tele-style vibe with modern versatility – and this 2016 Korean-made example is a perfect showcase of why players love this model.

Finished in a beautiful Sunburst, this guitar is in mint condition with virtually no signs of use. It looks, feels, and plays like a brand-new instrument. Clearly well cared for and barely played.

What makes the PT Special stand out is its unique and highly musical pickup configuration: a Tele-style bridge single-coil paired with a warm, fat P-90 in the neck. This setup delivers incredible tonal flexibility, from classic Tele twang and bite to rich, full-bodied blues and rock tones. It’s a true “best of both worlds” guitar.

The neck is fast, comfortable, and modern, with a smooth satin feel and excellent playability. The guitar is lightweight, well balanced, and extremely resonant, exactly what you want from a high-quality Korean-built Schecter.

Players love the PT Special because it offers premium features, boutique-style tones, and rock-solid reliability at a very reasonable price point. It’s equally at home on stage, in the studio, or as a do-everything workhorse guitar.

This example is fully inspected, professionally set up, and ready to play right out of the case.

The following work has been done: full cleaning and fretboard, fret polishing and string height setup (2.3 mm at the 12th fret on the low E string), pickup height adjusted for balance and clarity, and a fresh strings installed.
