Frequently asked questions
What is the main playability difference between these two guitars?
The PT Fastback II B is a standard 6-string with a 25.5" scale and Bigsby vibrato, designed for quick upper-fret access. The Damien-7 has seven strings, a multiscale fretboard (25.5" to 27"), and a fixed bridge—it trades vibrato and simplicity for extended range and heavier tuning options.
Which guitar has higher output pickups for heavy genres?
The Damien-7 Multiscale uses high-output Diamond Heretic pickups with focused midrange and harmonic definition, engineered for metal and djent. The PT Fastback II B uses warmer Alnico SuperRock pickups better suited to rock and blues dynamics.
Is the Damien-7 a good choice if I'm learning guitar for the first time?
Both guitars suit intermediate to professional players. The Damien-7's seven strings and multiscale geometry add complexity and require comfort with extended range tuning, making the 6-string PT Fastback II B slightly more approachable for expanding your foundation before moving to seven-string techniques.
Can I use the PT Fastback II B for metal or hard rock?
The PT Fastback II B is not ideal for metal or hard rock—it is explicitly designed for rock, blues, and indie with warm alnico response and classic vibrato character rather than the aggressive punch needed for heavier genres. The Damien-7's high-output pickups and extended range are built for those styles.
