as am i. the only thing that disappointed me was them discontinuing the stiletto elites. i liked the change they did from '08 to the '09 versions, and would've liked a 6'er or some upgraded electronics, like on that hellraiser extreme.

I was looking at the 2012 Schecter catalogue and I'm also impressed with the bass section! Bringing back the Baron = cool! Liking all the redesigns and upgrades to the C-4 (5) family as well. Like the Blackjack ATX C-4 &5's. Active Seymore Duncans, ebony fretboards, Grover tuners, sounds nice! But only 2 band pre on those. But the new C-4 Customs and Deluxes have 3 band pre. The Customs at 18 volts with EMG's, the Deluxes with Diamond pups. Both having Schecter top load or string through bridges. The only basses I saw that still had the much disliked S-Tech bridges were the Stilletto Custom 4,5, & 6's. The Stilletto and Omen Extremes are the only ones that still have the 'Vector' inlays as well. I'm feeling a little gassy if you know what I mean. Feeling like I need a new C-4 of one kind or the other. Can't wait till the online stores start listing the new models so I can see the costs of each!
new models on schecters website. some specs not matching up with what was in the catalog.
list on hellraiser extremes $1399(4) and $1469(5)
ouch.

Just saw that American Musical Supply has Stiletto Studio 4's on sale for $529.95. 47% off. Not to shabby. In thier Outlet Center on thier website. We can prob expect to see some good deals comin on old stock from the music stores. Especially on any discontinued models.
zZounds has the RIOT 4 for $399.95. 69% off. In 'Blowout' section.
Musicians Friend has the Raiden Elite 5 for $399.00, 53% off.
RIOT Deluxe 4 for $249.00, 50% off. In thier 'Deal Center'.
Lotsa deals on Raidens. I don't think that line took off as well as they would have hoped.

Welcome back...and how'd you do that?Well after a little hiatus, I'm back...mainly because I sort of broke the preamp on my baby
paradog gets #289 and an apology...and I'd like to take this opportunity to once again say that number requests need to be clearly stated when you post your pic(s). At time, pics are posted here simply to show off your basses and that's fine...but if you're after a number, say so at the time.
and thank you! 
I am the proud owner/player of one of those Raidens.
I have a Schecter Raiden 4 currently strung with Rotosound Nexxus extra lights and I love this guitar.
Ironically, it's my only bass......
Previously I was playing a Peavey Zodiac that didn't belong to me, after trying a lot of basses, the Schecter fit me perfectly. My next one will most likely be a Schecter, too.
Number, please?
