Schecter C-4?

So, was browsing the Schecter site to fan the flames of GAS, when I came across this:

Invalid Link Removed

A Schecter C-4 Custom.

Seemed pretty sweet. Intruiged me, so I went digging. And found nothing. I can't seem to find any sign of this bass anywhere, the only ones I found had soapbar pickups, this has a Jazz in the neck position and a Humbucker in the bridge position. So, people of TB, I have a few questions:

1) Does anyone know where I can find this?
2) Has anyone tried one?
3) How much would it cost?
4) Are there any similar basses with the same pickup configuration?
5) Your thoughts?

Thanks for all the help. :)
 
Never played a C-4 but I adore the C-5, same thing but a 5-string model. Beautifully responsive, mellow when it needs to be with a crystal snap when you want it. Maybe not a metal monster but a dream for blues and jazz. I've played 3 of the C-5s and even though their setup was different, I loved every one of them. can't wait to afford one myself. Definitely next on my list of bass acquisitions.
 
I owned a C-4 for a while, and the ONLY reason I sold it was that I decided I wanted to stay with passive basses. Lovely, beautiful fit and finish, nice balance, great sound, thin neck that's easy to play. I think the C-4 is the best looking bass that Schecter makes.

Used ones are excellent values, too. I highly recommend this bass to anyone who likes active 4-strings.
