Schecter C-4 GT Bass Trans Blue B-Stock 0170
Description
Schecter C-4 GT Bass Trans Blue B-Stock
This unplayed B-stock C-4 GT delivers a slim, fast neck profile that sits comfortably in the hand—the thin "C" shape and featherweight playability make it responsive across all four strings. The 34" scale with 24 X-Jumbo frets on an ebony fretboard provides excellent reach and articulation for modern bass playing. Minor cosmetic marks on the back and side keep the price down while the instrument itself remains in excellent working condition.
Playability & Build
The maple 3-piece neck with carbon fiber reinforcement rods ensures rock-solid stability and minimal neck dive, while the set-neck construction with Ultra Access makes upper fret access effortless. A Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut and Schecter tuners round out hardware that supports reliable intonation and tuning stability, and the mahogany body with flamed maple top wrapped in black 1-ply binding delivers classic aesthetics with modern construction.
Tone & Electronics
The EMG 35DC bridge pickup and EMG 35P4 neck pickup combination cuts through live settings with punchy, articulate tones and extended high-end clarity paired with controlled low-end punch that holds up on any stage. A 2-band EMG EQ with dedicated volume and blend controls lets you dial in surgical tone-shaping on the fly, powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery compartment that delivers consistent active electronics performance through long gigs.
