Models

Currently each unit of the PTE-101 is assembled by hand.

Because of this, each unit is uniquely made.

Each unit has design considerations that were made based on a number of factors including but not limited to availability of parts, design improvement ideas, etc.

Below you will find photos of all the models created so far. Feel free to reach out and request specific design features found in one of these units for your own unique PTE-101 or request new custom designs and features.

Accessories

Each PTE unit comes with:

12VDC wall adapter with
long 8 ft cord for easy use.

Korg CM-300 contact microphone (accelerometer) with solid contact clamp to improve signal and reduce feedback.

Each unit is shipped with a manual that includes step by step instructions on how to tune the temperament using a fourths/fifths sequence complete with what check notes to use and where to set the PTE for each step along the way.

When placing your order, please specify whether you want the black box model or the ivory/clear top model.
