My nine-month-old stood on his own for the first time to get a better look at this guitar when you unveiled it and then he tried to crawl over me to get at the screen when you started playing. That's an awesome guitar!
I love the overall look of this guitar, the appointments are all fabulous, and the tone range is spot on! You could build a career with this one guitar.
I feel like most people were put off by the overly gothic look most of the guitars from Schecter had before. Now that they've chilled out on it there seems to be more interest. That and they're just genuinely putting out even better quality guitars than they were before.
Can you please use the same riff/lick for comparisons?? When you change riff/lick between its hard to know if it's the riff/style of playing that changes, rather than the pick up etc... Ta heaps!
Bought my first Schecter C1 18 years ago and several Schecters since (I'd imagine Jerry Horton sold them a TON of guitars in that era, it is what sold me lol). The quality is unbelievable for the price. They basically come with a perfect setup out of the box and equipped with just about everything a player would want to swap the factory parts to straight out of the box.
WOW !! What a sweet PT series guitar. That baby is aesthetically beautiful and sounds awesome! I ordered the PT Special after you reviewed it. Looks like Schecter will be getting some more of my money. I really like the way Schecter puts the carves into their PT guitars. They don't disappoint their customers for sure. Enjoy playing that beauty Darrell. Also thank ya for introducing it to us all. Thank you to Schecter, too!!
Eh, to each their own. I played a 700 dollar schecter. The cr6 I believe? The pickups were hot I mean really hot which was kind of cool. But the guitar was a buzz machine. No matter how well you set it up it buzzed out the ass. Definitely gave me a bad first impression of schecter
@@beefnacos6258 I got a used 2010s schecter c-1 custom for 300$ made in Korea, it’s fantastic, it feels very solid. Stays in tune well, Seymour Duncan pickups not sure which ones but they sound great and clear. Never had much issues with buzzing.
Omg that’s perfect! I’ve been looking for a tele that has the elbow cut with a binding and wondering why no one has made one because it should be physically possible and boom! Here it is!
I guessed Schecter! I love the PT Special, the Purple Burst Pearl is my dream. The Van Nuys ash body is so gorgeous, parallel for neck rocks and switched 2 singles is awesome! Way to go Schecter!
I don't even play guitar right now (I think I will try to learn it again), but I have to say I learned so much from your channel and appreciate all the work you put into your videos. So kudos from me, your efforts are highly appreciated. I think you one of the reasons I want to play guitar again.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL & it’s a SCHECTER Sounds wonderful Hope to see it off-n-on I used to spend summers in Van Nuys, CA - 70’s & 80’s - GOOD TIMES - I miss those days - long gone are those days
As far as T type guitars go, this one seems to be just about what I would consider the perfect one. Sure, it is not exactly the traditional layout, but in terms of sounds it can get very close to it with far more tonal variation and the extra flexibility of that trem. The awesome looks don't hurt either, apart from greasy paw prints.
That is definitely one beautiful guitar! I am a big fan of the roasted maple necks. I think they look classy. When done right, and this one is definitely right!
I was about to buy the PT pro you reviewed a while back, so this really throws a wrench into things. I’d love to see a comparison video between the two
What are the odds that you would show me a tele type Schecter guitar that matches exactly my desire for a tele with a vibrato and all the specs that I am looking for? And the U.S. government is sending me a check that should cover the cost, now, never mind the future taxes that will bury me, so all good! Thank you, thank you Darrell!
In Canada, listing are up at LA Music for this PT and the "Traditional", aka S style, which has very '70s Super Strat vibes. Only item missing to make these "epic" is stainless steel frets.
The question for me would be is this guitar a worthwhile purchase if you're looking for a Tele tone given the added tonal options or would you just buy a Tele if you have another guitar with coil splits?
Wow, what a guitar, schecter has done it again. What a great sound. And the looks are beautiful. I've always liked schecter guitars used to have an exotic star Loved it, but had to get rid of, still regret it to this day. Thank you darrell.
Lovely looking guitar !!!! Ibanez have had this switching for years. I have tried to find the wiring for this configuration for a long time without using a special Ibanez switch. I have an old guitar ready to go if I ever find it.
Man, that roasted maple neck looks really great with the finish/color of the body! Sounds really great and the pickup switching is really versatile too.
That's a beautiful guitar, and the Braun-face one too. I have two Schecters, Hellraiser and Elite, and they both look great, play great, and sound great.
Oh boy, what a sweetheart! Daryl, i am in full agreement. Schecter is the very best bang for the buck. And the only way some of us "regular guys" can get that high end feel!
That's a real beauty. It would be nice if you'd talk a little bit about how strong (hot, => k-Ohm) the pickups are when you review guitars and what it does for the sound.
Awesome guitar! The PT model looks nice too. Who do we need to browbeat at Schecter to get them to flush mount the back plates? I love Schecter guitars, but that is a pet peeve of mine when I see that.
Hi there just wondering how much that beauty is to buy if you know. Jumped on their site but no prices yet I'm just hoping it's not their 2500+ range which I have no doubt it is due to its stunning looks and sound. Great review anyway and thank you for all you do 👍
Schecter has been my favorite brand since buying my first (of many) some 13 years ago. I'm actually considering a Townshend next, and this guitar will definitely have my consideration. My guess this guitar will hit the streets at $999-$1100, maybe as low as $899 if SGR feels generous.
Would be great if you provided some neck measurements (like thickness at the 1st and 12th) and or what it compared to that we’re all likely familiar with. Spec sheet for the guitar just doesn’t say enough so I’m likely not interested until I get one in hand or get more info. Thanks for showing us all these beautiful guitars.
I have owned four Schecters so far. Two of the models were manufactured around 2010, a Damien Elite 6 and a C-1 Classic. Both were flawless in every way down to the fret ends, the flawless finish the well-cut nut, and the general setup. More or less ready to play when they arrived to me. Then the latest additions to my collection were a C-1 Blackjack ATX manufactured in 2016, and a KM-6 MK-II manufactured in 2018. Both had disappointing QC issues, especially considering they are high-end models. The Blackjack had some minor flaws in the cream binding (not that big of a deal) but the nut was not cut properly at all and the general setup of the guitar left much to be desired. I had to get it to a luthier to make it playable; he had to properly cut the nut and also widen the saddle slots at the bridge in addition to the normal setup. Then, my biggest disappointment: the KM-6 had a significant area with a thick layer of glue residue on the fretboard, extending all the way to the binding. I was honestly shocked how anyone doing even a basic QC could have missed that. Especially considering the price of the guitar and that it is a signature model. These things should not happen and I have not had a similar issue even on my budget-friendly Indonesian Ibanez or LTD. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my Schecters. In fact, the Blackjack is probably my favourite guitar. However, it seems to me that quality control at Schecter (at least for the European market) is either very inconsistent or is not as good as it used to be...
Van Nuys,.. home of the classic street cruise on VN blvd in the in the 70's, and a host of different guitar cos back in the day.. pretty cool they continue to reference the places the guitars were made all around this area over the years .. I still have an Omen 6 in walnut that is just a sweet playing solid kick ass super strat... Very nice guitar.
have tp play one..haven't liked any of the foreign PT guitars I've had in my hands..pups were ok but the necks have been terrible..i love schekter guitars but not them..cant wait to try one...maybe I'm a little spoiled with a Barrington tele
Mmmmm yeah, I'm almost groveling for you to do a review on Duesenberg guitar for a couple of reasons. I recently found and purchased a Duesenberg semi hollow locally at a garage sell for $150.00 yeah $150.00 and it was still in the shipping box. (Story for another time) I still haven't opened it, should I? I only know it's a semi hollow because it's written on the box

Special Unboxing today!! Enjoy :)
Idk man... Still seems like just another tele to me..
That was pretty cool they sent you your own guitar with your face on it. Lol. Can my db sig come without the face
If you weren't paid for this......you should have been!
haven't lusted after a new guitar in a long time......this one, damn
“WHAT’S IN THE BOXXX?” 😫 shouted Brad Pitt in the movie Se7en.

I think we should get a dedicated video on that Braun face guitar... You can't hide that one lol
Up
April 1st would have been perfect.
bump for Braun burst
@@calbrockocat8728 so we need to wait 2 weeks :D
@@crabwalktechnic I mean their is a Durst Burst lol
Plot twist :The video was actually all about the DB face guitar and schecter will soon release it in the market
The proof: The other guitar is a Tele with Humbuckers. Yeah...no one saw something like this since 2 days :D
@@Sagramore92 you are toTele right..
Bruh spoiler alert😂
🙄
A guitar with Darrell's face on it was the absolute last thing I expected😂
My nine-month-old stood on his own for the first time to get a better look at this guitar when you unveiled it and then he tried to crawl over me to get at the screen when you started playing. That's an awesome guitar!
That is surely a sign. "Honey, do you see how much he wants me to buy this guitar?"
@@OutstandingBill1 I was thinking of something more subtle, like posting pictures of the guitar all over the house, but maybe I'll try your idea. 😂

@@jack7597 I was just as shocked as you when it happened 😃
Schecter and Reverend guitars are some of the most underrated guitars in the business. That’s a great guitar.
Both are my new favorite brands, just happened to buy a Revered charger 290 and then a Schecter NJ hss. They are now my favorite guitars.
I could not agree more with your statement here I own both! The schecter is a Vintage Solo 6 and the Reverend is a Double Agent W.
My favorite brands.
I thought the title was a joke and was expecting an Acoustisonic 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Same
haha i see that everyone getting acoustasonic videos
now watch as everyone is doing unboxing videos of guitars with their face on it this week.
Me too!
Whilst looking through the description i saw that Soli Deo Gloria at the very end. Amen to that, SOLI DEO GLORIA
Amen 🙏
Keeping real!
I love the overall look of this guitar, the appointments are all fabulous, and the tone range is spot on! You could build a career with this one guitar.
I think a nice name for that color would be "California Caramel." I like that Schecter has included all the comfort cuts. Thanks
or 'Maple Syrup' for Canada ... ?
Is it just me... Or is schecter getting better by the guitar?
The guitar research is paying off, haha. It sounds great
shcecter has been putting out some awesome huitars for yrs..people just afraid to spend the money...like any other company you get what ya pay for
I feel like most people were put off by the overly gothic look most of the guitars from Schecter had before. Now that they've chilled out on it there seems to be more interest. That and they're just genuinely putting out even better quality guitars than they were before.
Thanks for the clean tones. It’s the way I normally play, and most demos go straight to overdriven tones. More balanced appreciated.
Nobody has seen this guitar, even the people working on it were blindfolded. True story.
Or Daryl refers to then as nobody's 🥺
Made for a real laugh for the bandsaw operators at Schecter’s factory. 😳
Hahahahaha :D
@@dabsafe Just call them Stumpy.
Yup. I love that. Thanks for sharing Darrell. I’m really gasing for a Schecter. Such great value for the money and I love the PT series.
7:14 that is the most pleasant distortion I heard in so long
Can you please use the same riff/lick for comparisons??
When you change riff/lick between its hard to know if it's the riff/style of playing that changes, rather than the pick up etc...
Ta heaps!
That thing is ridiculously awesome. Love that contoured binding.
Having lived in Los Angeles for more than a decade, this might be the nicest thing ever associated with the name Van Nuys. Certainly the prettiest.
I would have expected a guitar series named Van Nuys to be HEAVILY relic’d 😆
Hahaha no doubt!
I have to agree.
I expected a meth addiction, at the very least.
I have to say this is one of the most professional channels I've seen and you are super impressive and engaging!
I love Schecter. Especially the PT. Contours, finishing, comfort cuts and great features for your money. They're tough to beat.
I'll by both van nuis models...the Strat as well. USD 1000 each. good deal.

Dang! I keep staring at that Beautiful Guitar i need a guitar like that
Very nice guitar what's price
Beautiful hardware with these 'clean face' pick ups. Very nice job of Shecter, this guitar worth every penny and sound amazing.
Legend says that acoustic guitar he throw up on the roof is still there.
Wow. Hats off to schecter. They’re really killing it with their guitars.

@@beefnacos6258 I had the same first experience with Ibanez, jackson, fender, prs, and Gibson. Its just luck of the draw

I have a Solo II on the way thanks in large part to your reviews Darryl. They sound awesome and look amazing.

Sounds wonderful
Hope to see it off-n-on

I like the Darryl Face Guitar best - where can I get one & how much does it pay me?
He is the best reviewer of guitars. Who else agrees with me?
Man.... the guitar sounds amazing, but the looks.... oh, you got me with its looks, what a gorgeous piece!!
“Let’s add a little dirt”...🤔 backs up a dump truck.

Love the Darrell Braun facial guitar! That's pretty funny. I still can't stop laughing!!! 🤣🤣🤣
"That is pretty from the backside..." lmao
Thanks for the demo! Do you have a dedicated sound demo of the Site T7 FM Larry Carlton model? Just wanted to see how it compares with this one?
Unboxing a new guitar is quite a great experience! Congrats!
Last few years I have really started to like the Schecter line. Think it all started with the Nick Johnston Signatures.
That is gorgeous, front and back. That wood is beautiful. Sounds great 👍.
Beautiful guitar, thanks for the video!!!!! Is the neck similar to the schecter pt pro? Big fan of their thin C necks.
Nice. I'll take a regular grain pattern over the flame or quilt every time.
bought my 1st Schecter a month ago and just LOVE IT......
What are the odds that you would show me a tele type Schecter guitar that matches exactly my desire for a tele with a vibrato and all the specs that I am looking for? And the U.S. government is sending me a check that should cover the cost, now, never mind the future taxes that will bury me, so all good! Thank you, thank you Darrell!
Wow! What a beautiful guitar 🎸 I love the tones of #4 position.
You have to show us more of " The Face " it's just too cool.
That is a beauty...the more I watch your videos Darrell the more I want to start playing
Definitely make it a mission! You will only grow. Music is this amazing journey of discovery. Go buy a guitar. You will not be sorry.
Darrell, I’d rock the shot out of that DBG signature guitar. It’s honestly pretty amazing and it’s Schecter so you know it’s quality.
In Canada, listing are up at LA Music for this PT and the "Traditional", aka S style, which has very '70s Super Strat vibes.

The question for me would be is this guitar a worthwhile purchase if you're looking for a Tele tone given the added tonal options or would you just buy a Tele if you have another guitar with coil splits?
I've got a very old Schecter PT, Van Nuys Era with brass hardware. This Schecter is definitely turning my head!
Wow, what a guitar, schecter has done it again. What a great sound. And the looks are beautiful. I've always liked schecter guitars used to have an exotic star Loved it, but had to get rid of, still regret it to this day. Thank you darrell.
The tone with the 2 Humb' togeteher is really awesome !!!
Just bought an Schecter Nick Johnston Trad., after it demolished two MIM Fenders and I absolutely love it.
I've had a Schecter PT Custom for years and love it.
When you said it was one of your favorite brands, I knew it would be a Schecter.
I have 2 schecters they are both built amazing just got the van nuys gorgeous and plays amazing. Very beautiful guitar you can get so many tones ❤
Lovely looking guitar !!!! Ibanez have had this switching for years. I have tried to find the wiring for this configuration for a long time without using a special Ibanez switch. I have an old guitar ready to go if I ever find it.

That's a beautiful guitar, and the Braun-face one too. I have two Schecters, Hellraiser and Elite, and they both look great, play great, and sound great.
Interesting configurations. Functional, too! Clever decision, not duplicating the parallel in #2 position.
Darrell, pls do a side by side comparison with a Fender Telecaster.
Looks great, but I'd love to be able to get the individual pickups split.
so crazy beautiful!! I love the PTs
Oh boy, what a sweetheart! Daryl, i am in full agreement. Schecter is the very best bang for the buck. And the only way some of us "regular guys" can get that high end feel!
The 'PT' is short for Pete Townsend, he played shecter telecasters during the 1982 it's hard tour
Love the sound! This is a brilliant guitar!
Lmao all straight faced "Very nice the new 2021 Schecter Darrel Braun Series" that was good man👍🤘
They really need to sponser you! :)
That's a real beauty. It would be nice if you'd talk a little bit about how strong (hot, => k-Ohm) the pickups are when you review guitars and what it does for the sound.
I have had a lot of nice guitars, but I have never had a Schecter...that may have to change that now...it's a beauty, and the tones are amazing!
Hey Darrel🙏🏼 I would love to have it by this week but I don’t find it online😔 is there a way I can have it earlier?
I burst out laughing when I seen Darrell on the guitar😂
Beautiful guitar! The finish, wood grain, goes together perfect! From a guy that doesnt play guitar! :)
Beautiful. I might make this my first Tele.
Whoa, she's a beauty! I have an Omen S-II & a KM-6 MK-III. Schecter makes outstanding guitars!
Awesome guitar! The PT model looks nice too. Who do we need to browbeat at Schecter to get them to flush mount the back plates? I love Schecter guitars, but that is a pet peeve of mine when I see that.

Just Googled the guitar and it seems that Schecter is indeed feeling generous, Zzounds has it up for pre-order at $899
I really loved the Firefly reviews, I'm retired now, and would love to learn, how to play. Keep up the great work. I look forward to your reviews.
Would be great if you provided some neck measurements (like thickness at the 1st and 12th) and or what it compared to that we’re all likely familiar with.

The frets are Xtra jumbo stainless steel, schecter classics. Spoon material yet super kick ass on guitar.
The DB face guitar was hilarious! That Schecter looks an sounds to die for.
Love your humor and the gear you share with us. Blessings 🙏
