Sound & Tone
The alder body and bolt-on, 25.5" scale construction give this lefty PT a snappy, direct attack with clear note definition, while the ebony fretboard adds tightness to the top end. The Schecter Nick Johnston single-coil in the bridge delivers bright, cutting twang for funk, blues and pop-rock lead work, and the Diamond '78 humbucker at the neck fills in warm, rounded body for smoother rhythm and sustained melodic lines; the push-pull tone control and 3-way switch widen the range between those two voices. It suits players who want classic T-style clarity without giving up thicker humbucker weight for overdriven leads.
Schecter Nick Johnston PT Lefty Guitar in Atomic Green
This left-handed Nick Johnston PT sits naturally in your hands with a Vintage "C" neck profile and roasted hard rock maple construction that feels broken in from day one. The 25.5" scale with 22 jumbo frets and 14" radius ebony fretboard makes chording and soloing effortless across the entire neck, while the alder body and bolt-on construction deliver the direct, punchy response you need on stage. Finished in striking Atomic Green with chrome hardware, this guitar commands attention without sacrificing the playability that matters when you're live.
Playability & Construction
The roasted hard rock maple neck stays stable through temperature swings—critical for touring and session work. The ebony fretboard with brass circle inlays wears like iron and feels smooth under your fingers night after night. Neck dimensions measure 0.825" at the 1st fret and 0.865" at the 12th fret, striking the balance between comfort and control that working musicians demand, backed by a 2-way adjustable truss rod with heel access spoke wheel and Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut at 1.67" width for rock-solid tuning. Schecter locking tuners lock in tight, keeping your intonation solid through entire gigs.
Tone & Electronics
The pickup pairing—Schecter Diamond '78 humbucker in the neck and Schecter Nick Johnston single-coil bridge pickup—gives you warm, singing neck tones for leads and bright, articulate bridge tones that cut through a band mix. Control layout features volume, tone with push-pull function, and a 3-way switch with metal knurled knobs and set screws that feel solid under your thumb, while the Diamond PT-S bridge locks in intonation and sustain you can rely on.
