Schecter Hellraiser Extreme 5 - Anyone any experience

[JamieMillsBass]

Been looking for a 5er to set up in an alternate tuning (my Euro 5 is in standard and I use it for another project) for one of the metal bands I play in and been offered one of these at a decent price.

Anyone have any experience? Good/Bad? Certainly looks nice to my eyes anyway.

I'm guessing not too many have played one then? lol

Hi, I haven't played that one but I have had SGR guitars and a Stiletto Custom bass. My experience is that Schecter quality control is high, even on their low cost guitars. As the "Hellraisers" are at the top of their range it should be a great guitar. If you like EMG's go for it. You will get a lot of bass for your money. Alternatively let me know as I may be interested in a trade as I'd love to try one.
