Schecter C-4 GT Bass Trans Blue B-Stock 2781
This unplayed C-4 GT captures articulate, punchy bass tones in the studio with a slim, fast neck that accommodates both aggressive picking and intricate fingerstyle work without fatigue. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access provides excellent upper-fret accessibility for recording complex melodic passages, while the mahogany body with flamed maple top and striking Satin Trans Blue finish with Black Racing Stripe delivers solid tonal character without ergonomic compromise. B-stock condition means minor binding cracks at the fret wire ends—visible in photos—but the bass itself remains unplayed and fully functional at a significant savings.
Recording & Session Performance
The 3-piece maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement maintains perfect intonation across tracking sessions and resists drift, while the 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16" radius enable clean articulation for layered bass parts and precise technical work. Neck dimensions—0.787" at the 1st fret tapering to 0.866" at the 12th—balance modern responsiveness with traditional bass feel, paired with a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.496" width) for crystalline string definition and rock-solid tuning stability throughout extended recording sessions.
Tone Shaping & Studio Versatility
The dual EMG pickup configuration—EMG 35DC bridge and EMG 35P4 neck—captures articulate highs and commanding lows with precision, shaped by the 2-Band EMG EQ and Volume/Blend control for mixing everything from punchy, focused pocket tones to full, aggressive bottom-end aggression across genres. The Schecter Custom Bass Bridge with string-through design maximizes sustain and tonal transfer to tape, while the 9-volt clip-in battery powers the active electronics with reliability and quick field replacement during sessions.
