Key Features
The Schecter Nick Johnston PT is a shining example of Schecter innovation and manufacturing, delivering a tonally versatile experience in supreme comfort and style. Designed with a classically recognisable body shape crafted from alder, you'll be sure to find a smooth, warm and articulate sound that will fit into any style or genre, developing over time and multiple uses. The addition of a roasted hard maple neck will bring a brightness to the tone, ensuring it sparkles at the high end and offers a comfortable playability thanks to the Nick Johnston C shape design.
Featuring a set of custom Nick Johnston pickups in a HS configuration, you'll be able to find and reinvent your sound time and time again. The single-oil Diamond NJ pickup on the bridge works with the sparkling brightness of the maple to offer a lively sound that is full of clarity - also working to reduce that irritating hum that can be caused by any feedback. On the neck, you'll find a humbucking Diamond '78 which is ideal for lead players looking for a little bit more bite and bark - providing a powerful, gritty tone that will let you slice through the mix like a bullet through a balloon.

Schecter have been at the cutting edge of guitar manufacturing and design for many years, pouring time and passion into every product – and it shows. Carefully selected industry standard tonewoods have been used to craft the Nick Johnston PT. Starting with the alder body - a common selection for many guitar makers due to its lightweight feel alongside a durable performance. Alder also provides a diverse, balanced tonal palette, with a strong sonic performance full of clarity in the mid-range, and capable of deep rich lows. The maple neck brings a brightness to the high end and the ebony fingerboard provides a natural aesthetic as well as a comfortable feel beneath the fingers – helping you elevate your playing to the next level.
The custom built Nick Johnston pickups offer you the best of both worlds. Designed in a HS configuration, the humbucker on the neck will allow you to access more aggressive hard rock tones, with a powerful sound that thrives at high outputs and demands to be heard. Ideally suited to heavier styles, this humbucking pickup is the perfect weapon for when you want to step your performance up a gear… or four. On the bridge the single-coil pickup offers a richer, more delicate sound that will respond well to the dynamics of your playing and is suited towards softer, more bluesy styles. Full of clarity and warmth, this pickup can also produce a glorious overdriven sound when pushed, and is designed with special technology that helps reduce the feedback hum that single-coils are sometimes prone to.
With the Nick Johnston PT, tuning between every song will be a thing of the past, and the industry standard hardware included will ensure that this guitar will stick with you for a long time. Built with a PT S Hardtail bridge, you’ll be able to enjoy stability alongside sustain for days on end. These bridges are famed for their reliability and have been favoured by many legendary guitarists through the years for this exact reason. The bridge works with the graph tech nut and Schecter’s own locking tuners to hold your guitar in tune for longer, providing a low action which further contributes to the supreme comfort and playability boasted by this guitar.
