Frequently asked questions
Can I play standard tuning on either guitar?
The PT Pro handles standard tuning naturally at 25.5 inches. The PT EX Baritone at 27 inches will have noticeably looser strings in standard tuning and is designed for low tunings—it's not ideal for standard-tuned genres.
Which is better for drop-D or drop-C tuning?
The PT Pro can handle drop-D comfortably. For drop-C and below, the PT EX Baritone's 27-inch scale is purpose-built to maintain clarity and articulation without flabbiness.
How do the pickups differ tonally?
The EX's Pasadena Plus and SuperRock Vintage combo emphasizes aggressive high-output voicing and articulation. The Pro's dual Z-Plus pickups deliver thicker, more versatile output suited to both high-gain and clean tones with more control options via push-pull switching.
Are both B-Stock guitars truly playable?
Yes—B-Stock means minor cosmetic marks only. Both have identical playability, tone, and durability as new models at a lower price.
