New from Schecter is the BlackJack Collection.

Additional features include a rock maple neck set into an arched mahogany body, a rosewood fretboard, with black pearl dot position markers, high-quality Grover tuning machines, and a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge.

Schecter Black Jack PT Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
With the quality of the workmanship, the amazing hardware and pickups, and the lifetime warranty... I expect to have this axe forever!
Sound
Real Duncan JB/'59 combo... in a mahogany, set-neck guitar? Worth the price of admission, just based on these features. Sounds like an LP, Strat and Tele.. depending on where ya flip the switch.
Features
Besides the real Duncans, you get a real Tone Pros locking bridge, and Grover tuners, all hardware in a slick chrome blach finish.
Ease of Use
Schecter does not include manuals with there guitars, so there is a bit of a lerning curve to the 5-way switch, but it's not too bad. Very playable guitar right out of the box, excellent QC here in the U.S. on these Korean made axes.
Quality
Beautiful black finish, 5 ply binding, and, as mentioned before, stunning, quality chrome black hardware through-out! My only concern on this (and most guitars of this price range) it the nut. Would love to see a bone, tusg, or graphite nut coming stock on these guitars.
Value
I think these guitars (the entire Blackjack series) is the best bang ya can get for the buck!!!
Manufacturer Support
To be honest, the only time I have ever had to contact them was to register the guitar, so no info here for ya.
The Wow Factor
I have 5 electric guitars, and time and time again, I say if I could only keep one, this would be the one!
