Frequently asked questions
What's the main difference between six and seven strings?
The PT Fastback II B is a standard six-string guitar suited to traditional rock, blues, and indie styles. The Damien-7 adds a seventh string tuned lower, enabling metal and djent tunings while the multiscale design keeps lower strings tight and clear—not practical for standard six-string playing styles.
How do the bridges differ and why does it matter?
The Fastback II B uses a Bigsby Flat Top B50 vibrato bridge for expressive pitch bending and classic effects. The Damien-7 uses a fixed Hipshot bridge optimized for extended-range tuning stability and intonation precision with no vibrato capability—a tradeoff for metal and djent players who prioritize lower-tuning clarity.
Which pickup set is louder or more aggressive?
The Damien-7's Diamond Heretic pickups are specifically voiced for high output and harmonic definition in metal and progressive genres. The Fastback II B's Diamond SuperRock Custom Alnico pickups are warmer and more articulate in the midrange, favoring rock and blues dynamics over pure output volume.
Are both guitars comfortable for aggressive playing?
Both feature thin 'C' neck profiles and X-Jumbo frets suited to precision and fast technique. The Damien-7's multiscale geometry and carbon fiber reinforcement specifically address extended-range comfort, while the Fastback II B prioritizes traditional six-string ergonomics and vintage grip compatibility.
