Schecter PT-7 Multiscale Black Ops Lefty Guitar
Description
Schecter PT-7 Multiscale Black Ops Left-Handed Guitar
The PT-7 Multiscale Black Ops is engineered to capture articulate, controlled tones across a 7-string extended range with the stability and intonation accuracy a professional recording demands. Its slim Thin "C" neck profile and carbon-reinforced mahogany construction provide the consistency needed for overdub work and studio precision, while the multiscale design maintains even string tension across the full frequency spectrum. The aggressive satin black finish pairs with purposeful hardware that locks every session into rock-solid tuning, critical for layered tracking and post-production edits.
Recording Precision & Playability
The carbon-fiber reinforced 3-piece mahogany neck resists drift and holds intonation across long tracking sessions, while the 24 X-Jumbo stainless steel frets and 16" fretboard radius enable fast, articulate picking patterns and clean note definition. The Thin "C" profile (20mm at the 1st fret, 22mm at the 12th) minimizes fatigue during extended recording hours, and the Set-Neck with Ultra Access construction preserves body resonance and sustain in the final mix while keeping upper-fret work accessible for punchy lead lines.
Tone Shaping & Studio Signal Chain
The Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern-7 bridge pickup delivers transparent, high-output clarity across all seven strings—essential for capturing aggressive palm-muted rhythms and articulate single-note passages with equal definition. The integrated 3-way voicing toggle switch allows real-time tonal adjustment between tight, focused aggression and warmer response, letting engineers dial in the right character for each section without reaching for EQ. The Hipshot 7-string multiscale fixed bridge locks intonation across the 25.5" to 27" multiscale range, ensuring that overdubs and reamping sessions maintain perfect tuning alignment with the original tracking.
