Question - anyone know the string spacing on the new 5-string Raidens?

Tx, Gus

My beloved '96 S series is going to Pat Wilkins on Friday for a Refin , going with a LPB . Here's the before and in 4/5 weeks I'll have that after shots

Bought this Stiletto Elite 5 on sale at Guitar Center back in '08. I was in the market for a 5-string at the time, and had no preconceptions of makes or models. The Stiletto 5s really surprised me - awesome sustain, great playability, and good tonal range. Even though the Studio was theoretically higher end, I prefered the tone on the Elite. I was prepared to pay more, but pleased that I didn't have to.

It's not a great photo - it's from a cell phone - but can I have a number, huh, can I, huh? ;o)

That gets you #242...welcome!

Just curious if anyone's changed out the OpAmp in those noisy EMG BTS active controls that come OEM on many Schecters.

The 062 OpAmp is kind of a mysterious choice as it uses more power, has more noise and a slower slew rate than several other choices.

or schectere riots

There are some out there on youtube but I don't have any myself.

And hip, I love your elite and riot but I think they are both missing a string!

Just got my 1st Schecter, an Elite Stilleto 5'er. bought it used off ebay. Couldn't be happier! Took it to practice last Thursday night and when I hit the open B it knocked the clock off the wall! Everyone in the band busted up at the busted up clock. So now the bass has been christened "The Clockbuster"

I'm now the proud owner of a shiny new Schecter 004! I moved from a First Act to this baby and the difference is night and day. See the finger prints all over it? That's because I can't put it down. I even brought it to work today (I...um....I've been getting looks....) But seriously, it's amazing the sounds I'm getting out of this thing. Can I have a number now? Huh, can I can I can I?

 

[My name is Mudd]

And another 004 appears!* That's worth #244, and welcome!




* I freely admit bias towards the 004...I own one myself, and if I can find an ash body/rosewood neck one, I'll own two!

 

[Craigster]

I guess the "Clockbuster" doesn't get a #

 

[My name is Mudd]

Oops...sorry, dude! #245 for you, welcome, and apologies!

Great story, BTW...how big was the clock?

There are two on eBay as I type .... not to tempt you unnecessarily.

Where? I just looked and saw a couple of nice basses, but no 004s at all.

 

[Gus Borden]

Item # 110665998637 and item # 260755101625

Enjoy!

 

[Gus Borden]

The first is priced fairly, I think. #2 is overpriced.

So I noticed that one of them is gone... was that you?

These are cool basses, I used to own one of the black ones w/the maple FB. Perhaps if I own another 4-string in the future this one could do it. Although.I have seen those Stargazers (basically the 004 with a few mids) and they look cool too.

 

[My name is Mudd]

Nope, wasn't me...I'm trying to buy a cab and have no extra cash about now.

This one was tempting also, tho.
