Schecter Owners Club, part 3

:woot: I have a Diamond Series Cali Custom 5 on the way. I picked up a Model T, Diamond J, and Stiletto Studio Fretless in the last 3 weeks. Today, online, I came across a used DV-4 in Trans Dark Cherry that has had the EMG HZ replaced with a Seymour Duncan. The Duncan is my Preferred Music Man style pickup. At the Price it was listed, I could NOT resist. I am so going to be Domestic Violenced by my Wife. :woot:

Indeed I am. From the photos it looks like it has black hardware. The US ones have chrome. I wonder what other differences if any there are.

Schecter use "black chrome" finish hardware on many of their basses. Here's a photo of my Hellraiser Extreme 5 showing the bridge and knobs. Personally, I like this finish, I just hope it can stand the test of time.

Im with you on the black chrome. I know the black chrome well. Two of my schecter have it. But in that photo the hardware is definitely black.
In terms of it standing the test of time.... Ehhhh. My 8 STRING hardware has developed some corrosion. My elite, not so much. But I have been diligent about cleaning it. That's why I'm intrigued by that bass having the black hardware. Hopefully they will start doing that here.
