Frequently asked questions
Is the PT Special LH suitable for metal or djent?
No. The PT Special LH is voiced for blues, rock, and funk with a vintage-inspired design. It is not engineered for the high output, tight low end, and harmonic definition required by metal and djent. The Damien-7 Multiscale is the correct choice for those genres.
Can a right-handed player use the PT Special LH?
No. The PT Special LH is built specifically for left-handed players, with reversed controls and string configuration. Right-handed players should not attempt to restring it.
What is the main advantage of the Damien-7's multiscale design?
The multiscale geometry spans from 25.5" to 27", allowing the lower strings on a seven-string tuning to maintain proper tension and clarity without compromising the playability of the upper strings. This is essential for extended-range guitars.
Which guitar is better for studio and gigging versatility?
The PT Special LH covers more traditional styles (blues, rock, funk) with its dual-pickup design and series-parallel option, making it ideal for varied studio and gig scenarios. The Damien-7 is specialized for metal and progressive genres.
