Description
Sound & Tone
The alder body and 25.5-inch scale give this PT a snappy, well-defined voice with clear note separation, while the Pasadena VT-1 neck and VS-1 middle single-coils cover glassy, bell-like cleans and chimey in-between positions suited to country, blues, pop and funk rhythm work. Switching to the Route '57 bridge humbucker thickens things up for crunchy rhythm and saturated leads, and the pull-to-split volume plus pull-to-expand tone let you thin that bridge back down or widen the overall range without changing guitars. With stainless steel frets, a 12-inch radius and locking tuners, it's set up for players who need one instrument to track a variety of styles reliably.
Schecter USA Custom Shop PT Wembley Studio Guitar Charcoal Open Box
The Schecter USA Custom Shop PT Wembley Studio sits perfectly in your hands with its satin-finished roasted maple neck and intelligently contoured body. This charcoal finish instrument channels vintage character while delivering modern electronics and hardware that won't let you down in the studio or on the gig. Built by players for players who need reliability, versatility, and an instrument that inspires.
Playability & Construction
The 25.5-inch scale with 12-inch fingerboard radius and 22 Jescar Premium German stainless steel frets create a fast, responsive neck that stays under your fingers across hours of playing. High-quality alder body paired with a satin-finished roasted maple neck delivers the comfort and speed you need for extended sessions, while the Graph Tech Black TUSQ nut and Gotoh Vintage Locking tuners lock in your tuning and hold intonation solid through any set.
Tone & Electronics
The SSH pickup configuration puts serious range at your fingertips—the Route '57 humbucker at the bridge cracks out thick, saturated tones, the Pasadena VS-1 single-coil in the middle adds clarity and articulation, and the Pasadena VT-1 single-coil at the neck opens up bright, crystalline textures. Master volume with pull-to-split and master tone with pull-to-expand give you real shaping power in real time, while the 5-way blade switch lets you dial in exactly the voice you need.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pickup configuration does this guitar have, and what kinds of tones can I get?
The PT Wembley features an SSH layout: a Route '57 humbucker at the bridge, a Pasadena VS-1 single-coil in the middle, and a Pasadena VT-1 single-coil at the neck. This combination covers bright, articulate cleans through to saturated, driven tones, with the pull-to-split and pull-to-expand controls on volume and tone letting you access even more sonic variety across five pickup positions.
Is this guitar suitable for metal or drop tunings?
No—this model is optimized for studio sessions, rock, blues, and jazz rather than metal or extended drop-tuning applications. Its design and pickup voicing favor clarity, versatility, and balanced response in standard and alternate tunings.
What does 'open box' mean, and is there any warranty coverage?
Open box means this unit was unboxed, inspected, and professionally set up by our techs but is otherwise new and unplayed; it ships in original packaging with all factory accessories at a reduced price. It is covered by our 30-day money-back return policy, including any problems on arrival.
What is the neck construction and playability like?
The neck is satin-finished roasted maple with a 25.5-inch scale and 12-inch fingerboard radius, delivering a fast, responsive platform with smooth, balanced playability. It features 22 Jescar Premium German stainless steel frets with vintage dots, a Graph Tech Black TUSQ nut, and Gotoh Vintage Locking tuners for stable tuning and precise intonation.
What's included with this guitar?
The PT Wembley ships with a custom wood case and all factory accessories.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
Sales tax is collected only on orders shipped to California; orders shipped to any other US state are not charged sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. At a typical 7% rate that is an estimated $208 less at checkout than the same listed price on a marketplace, which collects sales tax as the facilitator in most states. Buyers remain responsible for any use tax their state applies. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included.
