Haha - I understand that feeling.

Thanks for the welcome.

Hello all!

Just joined this forum. My name is Sujay, been playing for 23 years (and still am no good!).

I currently play for a jazz/funk/soul group in London called "Bambus City Strut". We've been going for 3 years and our next gig is a fortnight tomorrow at the Jazz Cafe in Camden supporting the Cuban Brothers.

My main bass is a Lakland Skyline Daryl Jones and its played through a TC Electronics (Stacatto 51 plus 2x RS112) rig.

Really looking forward to learning stuff from you all

Hello,

Funnily enough I bought one of these about 4 weeks ago - I bought it (on impulse) as I was actually looking at a Sadowsky, Lakland (I currently have a Korean Skyline) or Musicman. I am not sure what made me pick the Schecter up but there was no going back.

My first bass (which I gigged with for 15 years or so) was a 1980's Bass Collection and the Schecter reminded me a LOT of that bass.

I am a jazz-funk-soul type player and this bass lets me get a very modern sound - kinda Stuart Zender-ish. I play it through a TC Staccatto 51 Head and two TC RS112 cabs. Its has a very low action (which I haven't adjusted) and is a dream for slap work.

I'm not sure what the natural style for Schecters is (rock/hm - would love to know?) but I love the sounds I get from this baby. I must admit I'm not 100% keen on the looks - its a transparent black "quilted" with a natural wood through neck.

I am based in London so sorry that I can't help with a meetup!

Cheers
Sujay
