1980's Schecter Genesis Dallas-era PT "Pete Townshend Model" Guitar w/ Hard Case

You're looking at a one-of-a-kind piece of history right here. This is a Dallas-era Schecter PT "Pete Townshend Model".

By 1983, Schecter had reached its custom shop production limit and could no longer meet demand. That year, the company was purchased by a group of Texas investors who wanted to build upon Schecter's reputation for quality. The investors moved the company to Dallas, Texas, where they produced above-par quality guitars using both imported parts and Schecter parts under the Schecter name for less than five years.

At the 1984 winter NAMM show, Schecter introduced twelve new guitars and basses, all based on Fender designs. The most popular of these guitars was a Telecaster-style guitar similar to those that Pete Townshend played. Although Townshend never endorsed this model, it was known unofficially as the "Pete Townshend model" or "PT" as it is now called (yes, this line is still in production, although it looks nothing like this model).

This guitar has the very interesting "Lawsuit" peg heads (small peg marks on back of headstocks). Schecter was still using Stratocaster and Telecaster headstocks, which Fender had allowed when they were a parts company. The "Lawsuit" peg heads kept them out of trouble. 

The guitar is in pretty spectacular condition considering it's age, with only a few minor dings and scratches. There is no buckle-rash and all parts are original. Own this awesome piece of history today, and enjoy this guitar for years to come!
