Schecter C-4 GT Bass Trans Blue B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock C-4 GT brings a slim, fast neck profile engineered for studio work and session tracking—the thin "C" shape and featherweight playability respond consistently across all four strings for precise recording takes. The 34" scale with 24 X-Jumbo frets on an ebony fretboard delivers excellent articulation and note definition, critical for capturing clean bass tracks in the mix. Minor cosmetic marks on the back and side keep the price down while the instrument itself remains in excellent working condition.
Recording & Build Quality
The maple 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods ensures rock-solid stability and minimal neck dive, crucial for consistent recording sessions, while the set-neck construction with Ultra Access makes upper fret access effortless during takes. A Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut and Schecter tuners deliver reliable intonation and tuning stability across recording sessions, and the mahogany body with flamed maple top wrapped in black 1-ply binding supports the focused, controlled tone needed in modern production work.
Tone Capture & Electronics
The EMG 35DC bridge pickup and EMG 35P4 neck pickup combination captures punchy, articulate bass with extended high-end clarity and controlled low-end punch—ideal for sitting tight in dense mixes without muddiness. A 2-band EMG EQ with dedicated volume and blend controls enables surgical tone-shaping during recording and mixing, powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment for consistent active electronics performance across long studio days.
