Thanks, mate

Hi, everyone

I have had my Line 6 Vairax for a while, but I don't play it too often as I prefer 4-string. However, many people will rather play 5-string bass...
So I am willing to trade my Variax for a 4-string jazz or precision bass. I will consider everything with four strings in this price range (a friend of mine bought this for $1399 new). It has been gigged, but I could find any noticeable damage to finish or bass in general, so it is in quite good condition.

So the specs:
[list]
[*]Practical, instantly familiar controls
[*] Contoured alder body
[*] Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
[*] 21 medium profile frets
[*] 1.8" nut width
[*] 34" scale length
[*] 10" fingerboard radius
[*] Standard 1/4" guitar cable output jack
[*] Digital I/O RJ45 jack for future updates and additional sounds
[*] Included XPS-DI direct box and power supply features
[/list]


With Variax bass you can simultate :

[*]1961 Fender Jazz Bass.
[*]1960 Fender Jazz Bass with flatwound strings.
[*]2004 Fender Deluxe Jazz Bass.
[*]1961 Fender Jazz Bass.
[*]1963 Fender Precision Bass.

[*]1977 Music Man Sting Ray.
[*]2003 Modulus Flea Bass.

[*]1963 Rickenbacker 4001 with flatwound strings.
[*]1966 Danelectro Longhorn Bass.

If interested, I can take more pictures. If you have any questions regarding the bass, please, don't hesitate to ask.
I guess posting to EU shouldn't be a problem..

Thanks for watching!

That is a very good price! I bought mine for much more than that and it was totally worth it.
I haven't seen a better bass for recording.

I bought a nice Warwick Streamer Stage I 4 string bass from this guy.
This guy is really honest when it comes to description. If you're dealing with him, your not getting a cat in a bag (local expression to denote an item "not as described").
The communication was grade "A".
The seller was very helpful with shipping matters as it was shipped overseas.
Good luck with the other sales!
Janis

Nice one.

Good luck with the sale man.

Just to let you guys know. I sold Janis my GT6B. He's new to BC but is a stand up guy to deal with.[/quote]


Thanks Rich

Hi, guys.
I have this 5 string bass, but I really need a 4 string bass so would like to trade it.

Schecter (diamond series) Hellraiser bass is a very good bass. It maybe has some little scratches, dings, but they are hardly noticeable. The overall condition is pretty good. It has been used for 6 months. It hasn't been played much. I bought it for about 700 pounds; in USA you can get it for about 800$. I guess it would be worth at least half the priced I payed - that would be a total bargain. Has a nice, powerful sound and good neck. And the looks!

I would like a 4 string bass ( the same value ). I would prefer a jazz-type bass (e.g. Fender CIJ), but I would consider all the offers. However, fretted and with JJ,P or PJ pickups would be the best. I don't care about dings or dents and stuff like that. The sound and nice neck is what matters to me.

Feel free to ask questions - I will try to reply as soon as I can.

Here I copied a complete description of the bass :

The look, the feel and the sound are all amazing. This Schecter Hellraiser 5 string bass is an astounding instrument with a solid Mahogany body and superbly figured Maple top with Abalone bindings, 35" scale multi-laminate Maple & Walnut neck-thru construction with Ultra-Access for complete access to the highest notes on the fretboard which has 24 jumbo frets and Black Pearl 'Gothic Cross' inlays on a high quality Rosewood fingerboard.

The pickups are EMG 35HZ with EMG 18 volt active 2-band EQ and Volume/Blend/Bass/Treble knobs. The hardware is black chrome, has the Schecter Custom String Thru Body (or Top Load) bridge & heavy duty die-cast tuners.

Here are some pictures.

Thanks for looking!

I think this bass has been underrated often. Very good value for money(~1100$). Totally would recommend it.
Bump from me

Bought a BOSS GT6B bass pedal. Unit as described.
Very good communication and a prompt dispatch - no complaints.

Very nice guy to deal with and I would recommend Rich as a premium seller.

Thanks mate
