I believe it has the same EQ as the Stiletto Studio which is Schecter's best selling bass.

If I did not buy a bass yesterday, I'd be all over this one. Schecter makes great basses!

If anybody got this deal, thumbs up. I had one. Only returned it cause I had another build that got completed at same time. Great bass for the money.
Electronics I believe were EMG 2-band BTS (think) with Vol/Blend/Bass/MID/Treble
The pickups were DC40 at bridge and 40J at neck.

If someone got it here, post your name. You got a great deal if its in good shape.

Guilty! :D I decided to act on my own posting for once- couldn't leave it on the shelf, as it was taunting me. Thanks for all the positive feedback Yolly and Graves- much appreciated as I've not owned a Schecter before. I love the fact they offer so many lefty models - I believe I counted 22 or so on their website. It looks good visually- fingers crossed its not got any neck issues, or hidden damage (like my last ESP I returned some time back).

New bass excitement :mrgreen:

Congrats NoXX!

If it is your first Schecter, I think that you will find - as it is often the case with Schecter - that you get a lot for your money, especially if you buy used, like you did!

Nice NoXX!!!!!

Schecter is one of the companies that actually build a decent bass for 600-800 street price. This one had good pickups and OK preamp. I really liked the Session. It was built well for the $$. That price was too low even I thought about it... but walked. :)

Good deal!
