Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Made for left-handed eight-string playing, the PT-8 MS Black Ops combines a 25.5–27.5-inch multiscale design with a thin C neck and ebony fingerboard. Its contoured mahogany body includes forearm and back contours plus a deep cutaway for upper-fret access. The Fishman Fluence Open Core Modern humbucker offers Modern, Classic, and Single Coil voices through its three-way switch. At just under eight pounds, it is built for extended playing with a satin finish that resists sticking and slipping during intense performance.
