Schecter Hellraiser Blackjack

Hello

i have a littel gas attack but i cant find any reviews or information about two schecter models.

I'm looking for Hellraiser Extreme and/or Blackjack ATX. Would be nice if you could give me some information about this two basses. They look so amazing.

My experience is that Schecter's distribution isnt the greatest. When I go into GC's, all I usually find is a couple of Stiletto's and a Diamond P and/or a Diamond J.
I havent found music stores that stock too many of their models- and they make a LOT of models!
That might explain why you're not getting much feedback.

Try searching in the Schecter Owners Club on here. A few have already bought the Hellraiser Extreme and are very happy with it.

We've got 'em. They are what you expect out of a Korean made bass. The quality control is pretty good, pickups not the best. Really slick looking basses just not my style.

I have a Damien Elite 5 and I like it except for the hard corner where my right arm rests. The sound is very adjustable and the finish is great. The difference between the Hellraiser and the Damien is the bolt on neck vs the necl thru and maybe the tuners I think.

I tried a 4 string Schecter Hellraiser with the EMG TWs and it sounded and played great! I couldn't put the thing down, I could get so many good tones out of it and it felt very well built!
