Schecter Owners Club, part 3

[mattattack187]

Yep, they did the offset blocks on the Session Series Basses. Now it looks like most of the newer Diamond Series Bass are getting the offset dots. Doesn't really bother me. I applaud them for doing something different.
All my Schecters are Traditional Dots but, I've added adhesive Blocks to 3 of them.

Don't know how I missed this one yesterday. Very interesting. Relic, roasted maple neck & MonsterTones. "J-4 Sixx"

Certainly wouldn't be a deal breaker for me, just not my cup of tea.

I never cared for the way Schecter does those inlays on the fretboard. Solid looking basses though.

As with almost everything Schecter does, there is a practical reason for it. Their position provides increased visibility. I personally like the shift, but you know, to each his own.

There's another series of P and J coming with different inlays and some other stunning options.

Any idea of delivery time frame for the 2020 line?

Most things shown at NAMM arrive in stock in March at some point. Some earlier, some later, depends on shipping schedules, etc. Should be in stock most places no later than April.

I went searching NAMM videos and seen the Beautiful "Exotic" series P Bass & a J Bass with the Black Chrome Metal covered EMG's. Seen the new colors EMG did for Schecter's Banshee Guitar series. Hope the colors end up in the Bass pickups eventually also.

Those are the ones I was alluding to. Stunning and sound fantastic. The colored EMG will be a no go, though.

New to the site, to the forum as well. Per my profile; Self taught, no interest in joining band, just playing for fun. Happy to see a Schecter Owners club. I've never played anything but Schecters, though am waiting on an Ibanez Mikro, just to try out short scale.

Nice collection there.

 

[DarbyC]

Thanks. It's a bit much for someone who's not interested in playing in a band. I don't think there's much call for a Japanese metal cover band in Denver, with a 59 yr old white woman playing bass. I never was interested in that, just in learning how to play the music that I love. Anyways, there's no such thing as having too many basses, right?

If you think you have too many Basses we have a Thread for that also.

Bass Hoarding Personality Disorder (BHPD) - You are not alone.

I spend time there myself.

I think I'm going to show my husband that picture, when he complains "Do you really need another bass?"
I usually throw it in his face, "Do you need another hockey stick?"

Great collection btw..

 

[EdBo]

Wish it was a Long Scale. I'd be excited. It sure is sweet looking. New 2020 Schecter Banshee Bass.

 

[DarbyC]

This is the bass I really want... but in the solid gray. Though this is why I'm buying the Ibanez, since I've never played a short scale. It's sooo sweet!

[DarbyC]

*sigh*, yep... it's beautiful. Not sure how I'm going to afford this, since I'm unofficially retired... but I'll get there.

2020 Michael Anthony.

It will look right at home with my small herd.

There's gotta be a way, EdBo. Gorgeous bass.

Hopefully zZounds will get one in stock and I'll get it on the 12 month payment plan. That's how I got my dUg and my 1st Michael Anthony. I got my 2nd Michael Anthony used on Ebay, listed as a Schecter 4 string Bass, so cheap I feel guilty about how much I got it for. I was the only person who bid on it. Bazaar ! I got Blessed for certain. I got really good deals on all 4 of used Model T's also.

 

[John Stephen]

Wow! That eBay deal sounds fantastic. Hopefully you'll score this one with as good a deal as your other ones.
