Schecter Hellraiser Extreme-5 Left-Handed Bass B-Stock 1623
This left-handed 5-string bass sits naturally in the hands with a slim, fast neck and 35" scale that extends the low-end response across all five strings. The neck-thru construction provides the sustain and resonance needed for rock and metal stages, while the Ultra Access body contours make upper-fret navigation effortless during live performance. Built in South Korea to exacting standards, this B-stock unit offers full factory specifications at a significant discount.
Playability & Construction
The thin 'C' neck profile measures .787" at the first fret and .866" at the 12th, engineered for speed and comfort across extended gigs and rehearsals. 24 X-Jumbo frets on a 16" radius Ebony fretboard deliver precise intonation and tactile feedback under the fingers, while the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut ensures consistent string-to-fretboard contact and rock-solid tuning stability through demanding sets.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG 40TW pickups cut through a dense mix with articulate, punchy tones and controlled midrange—essential for fingerstyle grooves and aggressive picking in a band context. The 18-volt active electronics provide extended headroom and dynamic range for expressive playing, while the Schecter Custom Bass String-Thru bridge with Black Chrome hardware locks in intonation and sustain across all five strings for reliable stage performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean?
B-Stock means this bass is fully functional with all factory specifications, but carries minor cosmetic imperfections from display or handling. The playability, electronics, and hardware are identical to new units.
Is this bass suitable for fast playing and technical work?
Yes. The slim 'C' neck profile (0.787" at the first fret, 0.866" at the 12th) and 35" scale are engineered for speed and comfort, making it ideal for intermediate to professional players tackling metal, progressive, and funk styles. 24 X-Jumbo frets provide responsive articulation.
What kind of tone does the EMG 40TW pickup setup deliver?
The dual EMG 40TW pickups paired with 18-volt active electronics produce articulate, punchy tones with controlled midrange and extended low-end clarity. The high output and dynamic range suit both fingerstyle precision and aggressive picking across studio and live applications.
Why is a 35-inch scale better for a 5-string?
The 35" scale (compared to standard 34") provides tighter string tension and improved clarity on lower strings, delivering better low-end definition and sustain—critical for the extended range of a 5-string bass.
Is left-handed configuration standard on this model?
No, this is a left-handed variant of the Hellraiser Extreme-5, specifically built for left-handed players. The body contours, neck, pickups, hardware, and controls are all mirrored for left-hand operation.
