The Shark Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Looking for the traditional black with a maple board. If you know of one, let me know. I've seen all the guitars on Reverb, TGP and eBay. Looking to pull one out of the "weeds". Price isn't the first concern. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich_S Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 If any of you come across an '84-ish black PT with a mini-toggle installed for the coil split, let me know. It's mine and I never should have sold it. Best guitar I ever owned.

Rich_S Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 A nice black PT showed up on eBay this morning, but it's pricey and it's in Japan. Cool birdseye neck, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already see a problem with that one (besides I was almost ripped off by a Japanese seller passing off a counterfeit PT SCHECTER a couple of years ago). VETO!

The Shark Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Yeah, I saw it. I didn't think it would be this hard to find a REAL ONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biz Prof Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 https://raleigh.craigslist.org/msg/6060913575.html No affiliation. It's white, not black. It does look legit. ETA: I know, I know...you asked for black and maple. They are somewhat hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they are really good guitars, but the newer models have a weak market re-sale price. Overlooked for sure. Let me know. I think this might become a quest instead of a whim.

Rich_S Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I don't like the necks on the modern Schecter, too thin for me. When I wanted a PT to replace my old one a few yeas ago, I decided to build one out of a Schecter MIK body and a Fender MIM neck. I like the Fender Modern C shape a lot more than Schecter's neck, though the '80s Schecter big, fat hunk o' maple was even better. I readily admit to being a peghead snob; gotta be Tele-shaped, which Schecter can't do any more. The trick to mating up a Fender neck with the Schecter body is that Schecter uses a Strat neck pocket, even on the Tele-shaped bodies. The PT neck pocket has to be routed out a little bit to square the corners, so Fender's square Tele neck fits without a gap. I used a goldtop PT body because I've always loved the guitar Townsend played at the '83 Toronto "Who's Last" (LOL) show and at Live Aid. I built one of these a few years ago, stupidly sold it and then had to build another one all over again. Now, I'm getting the urge for a black one. There's a black MIK body for sale on eBay this week, but it's beat to heck and being advertised as "reliced". I don't mind some honest dings, but this one looks pretty bad.

cmatthes Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I'd just order a Musikraft Tele neck with a Strat heel. Best replacement necks in the biz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montelovesco Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 This one is gone, but it gave me an idea about the price range (at least here)... http://shop.guitarpoint.de/de/vintage-guitars/1979-schecter-telecaster-black-van-nuys-usa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
