Schecter Van Nuys Limited Edition Guitars! - 80's Hot Rod Guitars Made Modern!

[@noAPlease]

Really love the way this group of presenters has developed over the past few years. Thanks for the vids!

[@DanAddison]

Me too, wasn’t sure about digital john initially but he’s getting good at this lark now, a superb addition to the channel.

[@kasnitch]

Really nice to see much more content with John hosting with Pete . Deep knowledge and impressive af shredding skills .

[@junkfoodeater]

Everytime i play a Schecter and not even the expensive ones it just feels quality

[@JTB--]

Schecter guitars are a great value. The Schecter Guitar's with the Sustainiac pickup are a lot of fun

[@jason.h]

Watching digital John makes me realise I need to brush up on my chops. 😭 Man's a beast

[@jenniferlawrence2701]

Pete Townshend used a Schecter tele in the 80s. Hence the "PT". See the Eminence Front video.

[@dylanmcgarry1221]

I have a standard run Van Nuys traditional S style and it's one of my all time favorite guitars, absolutely love the satin roast maple neck and finger board Tuners are rock solid, 2 point trem works excellent, very good pickups All around wonderful versatile instruments

[@OgamiItto70]

"It's a real amp, John." Oh, *_SNAP!!!_* "Danish" Pete "Digress" Honoré been sharpening up his tongue, I see.

[@skapslag]

It's a big ooof right there

[@TheTopGun920]

Schecter is killing it! That T-body is fantastic.

[@xneurianx]

PT does stand for Pete Townshend. He was the flagbearer for Schecter a billion years ago and played their T-style guitars, so now all their T-style guitars are branded as PT.

[@fongy200]

mark Knopfler was using them at the same time. I seen Townsend use one for a performance of Eminence front but i expect he used them extensively for recording.

[@mattiasjohansson7231]

Pete was never an official figure for Schecter but they did some clever marketing work and made it look like he was. Mark Knopfler had quite a few different Schecters but his main ace in the 80s was the candy red dream machine strat.

[@bretspangler8717]

Thanks so much for your posts, I appreciate them being in high-definition 1440 by default, I spend a small portion of my day turning on HD, nice to see clearly now ;)

[@Rich_G22]

Yes the PT was modeled after a Pete Townsend Tele that Schecter made for him back in the day. Schecter makes really nice guitars. Even their more budget friendly models are superb.

[@johndelong9230]

Pete sure has some swagger in his walk and talk! Amazing how much different they both sound, "it's in there hands".

[@ledhendrix5054]

Started by David Schecter around 76 , he Originally made spare parts for Fender/Gibson.

[@andyroberts792]

I have the Van Nuys strat in the amber stain. It's a killer guitar.

[@fongy200]

One of Mark Knopflers most celebrated live performances was done using a Schecter Strat. Tunnel of Love at Wembley mid 80's, its a superb solo.

[@babylon_bob]

I own two strats a PT fastback and NJ Strat and having owned some custom shop stats and lot more expensive guitars I sold most but still have the two schecters they are just amazing value for the price amazing!

[@SomeKindOfMadman]

Love these two duo; talented chaps indeed. Greetings from California. And yes, Van Nuys is located in Los Angeles. It’s my neck of the woods.

[@joshuafreedman7703]

Hello, SKOM! Greetings from Thousand Oaks! I grew up and lived in The Valley until 5 years ago.

[@zoeherriot]

Of all bands I wouldn't have thought have become Schecter artists (after their heavy use of Fender and Gibson), The Cure - with a cool Bass VI variant, and Simon Gallup's basses.

[@snapfinger1]

The old gold top PT Diamond Series was a beast. Similar dimensions.

[@iTrove]

Pete is blossoming into a proper curmudgeon. Funny how the hills are covered in snow and your path was uphill both ways when you were younger. THe PT sounded great btw.

[@Pulse2AM]

Very nice guitars and jams gentlemen. I lived in Van Nuys for some years, it's very suburban and not the best of Los Angeles mainly just homes, apartments and small businesses.

[@joshuafreedman7703]

Hello, Guy! Greetings from Thousand Oaks!

[@lewisbarnes]

Love these guitars. Tried the natural finish strat one a while back. Such a great model!!

[@roughcutguitars]

Ok, fair play, Pete probably spent every waking non-working hour of his younger days woodshedding, but bloody hell Pete Townshend helped put Shecter on the map in the 80s with his black and gold-top T-styles.

[@johnconnearnmusic]

Big big fan of these! (and Schecters in general) also 4:19 shoutout premier guitar lol

[@dancrowe7860]

"This is a real amp, John" had me laughing.

[@GTruck0]

Looking for this comment. Hahaha. Love the banter

[@Notpetedoherty]

Ive got an original early 70s schecter strat its my favourite guitar i own. Im sure its got the same monster tone pickups in it

[@redfurydubstep]

Schecter never disappoints

[@danielversion1.035]

Lee's playing is really coming alo..... oh wait...

[@conordyer2307]

Lol

[@elevenAD]

these sound great! glad they dont have roasted necks, guitars start to have a plucky pick attack and different tone with roasted necks!

[@andybungert]

Those are so killer, but I already have 3 Schecter NJ Traditionals (S style), and a couple PTs, But that PT is killer with the body bevel and belly carve, plus the trem? Wow

[@gpdaelemans]

It's the magnet slugs that are PHAT... not the coils.

[@michaelmetal71]

schecter is definitely killing it right now great value for the price & premium features, and i know we’re getting a lefty version unlike Fender and jackson and Charvel and Ibanez,schecter even offers signature models in a lefty version 🤘🏼🎸🎶 schecter and kiesel ( just ordered a lefty thanos) both offer almost the entire line lefty 🤘🏼

[@zeffneeson5214]

Dig John is an epic player tasteful 👌

[@che2335]

Thursday morning and Digital John almost makes this shit job i have slightly bearable. Fuck yeah

[@grumpyrocker]

I own two Schecter guitars. Both probably out of the same factory as my Ibanez and LTD, but the Schecter guitars feel more premium, better made, and solid. I feel they offer more for the price than rivals.

[@DudeMcGuybro]

That factory is World Music, and they make great guitars if you ask me. ESP, Agile, and Schecter all made in the same factory in Korea. I've never gotten a bad guitar from them personally.

[@grumpyrocker]

@@DudeMcGuybro My LTD and one Schecter is from WMI, however my Ibanez Premium and other Schecter are from Cort in Indonesia. I've had PRS SE and a Chapman from WMI and they were beautifully made.

[@seanhershey3390]

Watch the Who's "Eminence Front" video...both playing PT Shecters

[@conordyer2307]

Schecter quality is second to none, anyone that gets these or any other will be really happy with it. Got the syn gates custom with sustainiac and holy shit the guitar is insane, features wise compared to the overpriced G brand that shall not be named lol

[@AmericanNationalist852]

I'll name them: Gibson is assho That being said, Schecters only real market is teenage boys with their copious usage of abalone and cringe inlays. And in my honest experience, schecter is really hit or miss when it comes to their fretwork. LTD is the best bargain brand, imo.

[@DudeMcGuybro]

I scored my Synyster Gates for 500 shipped with case and an upgraded trem block. Easily the nicest guitar I own, I call it my surgeons scalpel because it just feels so precise.

[@danparry834]

Schecter have got rid of a lot of the abalone now I think!

[@jconner3891]

John Browne is a schecter artist now.

[@Patrick.B223]

No school like old school. 👍

[@Aboutthemusic21]

I'm in Michigan. And I watch all ur stuff very informative and great playing 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸✌️thanks

[@TheeIronJedi]

Pole pieces not coils

[@PatrickQT]

"Because its a real amp john.." 🤣

[@douglasennis7291]

PT is for Pete Townshend 👍🏻🔥😎💯

[@page29]

Both Pete and Roger playing the Schecter PT: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXrCn6N7rs-arqM

[@Leychen]

Oh it's Digital John who appears to be an analog person

[@richgrothaus5971]

Schecter makes some of the most underrated guitars, nothing made in China.👊🏻

[@martinclayton7260]

Danish Pete goes both ways, I always thought so?

[@lauriemacquanan2141]

When you SEE the Hollywood sign Van Nuys is on the other side a few miles.

[@joshuafreedman7703]

Hello, Lady! Greetings from Thousand Oaks!

[@deandee8082]

they look sorta like sun valleys? new? custom? limited? LOLOLOLOLOLOLO good one

[@FredHampshire]

Nice!

[@RomainG6409]

Waouwww !!! I am in love ... with the type T Schecter !!! SO GORGEOUS !!! 😍😍😍🤘🤘🤘👍👍I love that brand anyway.

[@stuartarden-rose6273]

Guitars have become like cars: Difficult to tell one from another! It's about time someone came up with something different, even if only in shape.

[@sicario7738]

Love schecters

[@jonartan4754]

Schecter Van nuys is where is all began (and ended.) They were sold off in the 80s and now the only similarity is the name/branding/looks. They make great stuff now but dont compare at all..

[@gibs8412]

the PT does come from Pete Townsend

[@mickenilsson]

Pro guitar shop 😁

[@1972Georges]

I like them. But have not seen them in that color. Natural only.

[@jezzer1969]

The original Strat types had scratch plates & locking trem systems. So these are a double disappointment. Just look at Andy Taylor’s at Live Aid. Or Jamie West-Oran’s in The Fixx’s Red Skies video. These seem half arsed. At least the Fender Boxer reissues got most of it right.

[@jezzer1969]

Jamie West-Oram apols typo.

[@TheMixWithABD]

Just killer guitars

[@nayaleezy]

Because everyone likes a guitar brand name that resembles sphincter

[@elevenAD]

Schecter PT stands for Pete Townsend, Roger and Pete played them. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKmZi5qwZbmNq6M

[@TheHitmann069]

That intro sounds nothing like the 80's..dear me.. 👎🏻

[@TheHitmann069]

@officia_andertons Get bent scamming bot. 🖕🏻

[@davidyoung8875]

Nice guitars
