Schecter Hellraiser Extreme-5 Electric Bass. Crimson Red Burst Satin (CRBS)

Schecter's Hellraiser Extreme-5 electric bass guitar is a premium instrument made with top notch woods and electronics. This bass is truly a work of artistic craftsmanship.

The Hellraiser Extreme-5 has a multi-laminate maple and walnut neck. It's made from 3 pieces of maple and 2 center strips of walnut. This well balanced combination of select wood takes the bright tones of maple and adds a dark tone from the walnut strips. It's often used for Thru neck construction, giving the acoustic tone of the instrument a perfect string vibration transfer to the body. The ebony fingerboard has a snappy, crisp attack with the density of Maple, but with more brittle grains, oilier pores, and a stronger fundamental tone than Maple. It has a tremendous amount of percussive overtones in the pick attack, that mute out shortly thereafter to foster great, long sustain.

Some bass guitars the instant you pick them up you know they are quality. Maybe it’s the feel of the finish, a nice balanced weight, or something supernatural between musician and instrument. Whatever it is the Schecter Hellraiser Extreme-5 has it. It turns out that feeling is justified because the Hellraiser Extreme-5 is a well-crafted instrument. The bass has a dark elegance to it that gives it a unique look. The woods used on this bass combined with the EMG 40TW pickups provide a varity of tonal options. What really makes this bass stand out is its robust feel.
