Worth the price and more! Jan 28, 2011

For those interested in upgrading from a beginner bass or looking for a back-up that isn't a bank breaker, you should take a good look at the Schecter C-4. First off, don't let the picture fool you; that is a C-5. The C-4 is a 4 string bass. I bought mine as an upgrade from a DeArmond Pilot Plus. The Pilot's electronics were very noisy and I needed something quieter to record with. This bass was exactly what I needed. After a month, here are my impressions:
1) It's a very pretty instrument. You can't see the binding very well in the picture, but it goes all around the the top of the body, up the neck and around the headstock. It's an antique ivory color which I think goes great with the matte black finish on the rest of the guitar.
2)It's very comfortable. Because of the long upper horn it has much better balance than a lot of basses (the headstock of my friend's Thunderbird bass always heads toward the floor if you don't hang on - that doesn't happen with the C-4). The top of the body is carved so, although it's not super rounded, I don't have a problem with the edge digging into my forearm and the back is scalloped so it fit's nicely against my hip. The neck is multi-laminated maple and walnut, also with a satin finish, and isn't too big making it playable for extended periods.
3)The set up right out the box was very good. I play guitar as well and am always tweaking action and intonation (especially when trying different string gauges) so I'm sure I'll end up making some adjustments at some point, but so far all I've done is set the action more to my liking via the bridge; I haven't had to mess with the truss rod at all.
4)I mentioned the electronics earlier and these deliver. The pups are EMG 35HZ passive pick-ups but you will still need a 9 volt battery as the eq is active. They are very low noise and very punchy even though you can adjust the lows and the highs separately. When I drop the treble out they just sound muddy but why would I want to do that? This bass has that nice jazz/progressive sound. If you're looking for a thumpy, bottomy sound that will get lost in the background, maybe this bass isn't for you. If you crank the treble you get in-your-face buzzy punk but if you roll it off just a little you can fit in with just about any contemporary style of music.
Keep in mind that this is a production model, not custom as the name would imply, but it has a lot of features of a much higher end and more expensive instrument. The bridge allows you to end string or through-body string. The pick-ups have pretty good output. The body of the bass is mahogany (even though you can't see it) giving it nice sustain. All in all, you get a lot of instrument for under $400.
