Sound & Tone
The active EMG pairing — a 35DC at the bridge and 35P4 at the neck — pushes a punchy, articulate voice with crisp high-end detail and tight, controlled lows, and the 2-band EQ with blend control lets you dial from focused bridge growl to fuller neck-heavy thump. Mahogany body with a flamed maple top and an ebony fretboard reinforce the clarity and attack, while the 34" scale and string-thru bridge keep notes defined and even across all four strings. Best suited to rock, metal and modern progressive playing where cutting definition matters, though the blend and EQ range also cover funk, fingerstyle groove work and studio session duty. The thin "C" neck, 24 X-Jumbo frets and Ultra Access set-neck heel favor players who work high on the neck or lean on fast, technical lines.
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.

Is this bass good for metal and hard rock?
Yes, the EMG active pickups deliver punchy, articulate tones with extended high-end clarity and tight low-end control, making it ideal for metal, hard rock, funk, and progressive styles. The thin "C" neck and fast playability also excel in demanding live and studio settings.
What electronics are included?
The bass features EMG 35DC bridge and EMG 35P4 neck pickups with a 2-band EMG EQ, dedicated volume and blend controls, and a 9-volt clip-in battery for consistent active electronics performance.
How does the neck feel?
The slim, fast "C"-shaped maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods sits comfortably in the hand and resists neck dive, while the 34" scale, 24 X-Jumbo frets, and 16" fretboard radius on ebony provide excellent reach and articulation.
Is this bass suitable for jazz or folk music?
This bass is optimized for metal, hard rock, funk, and progressive music. The punchy, articulate active tone and fast neck profile are not ideal for jazz or folk applications, which typically benefit from warmer, rounder passive tones.
