I'm pretty sure this now answers what bass is best for metal

Black backgrounds really make black instruments "pop"

I bet $$ thats my old bass. I put Hipshot tuners on it too. All the rest was stock. I had 2 of them identical with hipshot tuners and tuned E-G and B-D. Bill from Hipshot got one of them and sold it I believe. It is a 35" scale bass and really well built and playing instrument. Amazing for a list of $849. I bought em both used for under $300 and played the hell out of them. They sound GREAT as is stock. Jumbo frets.

$599 starting? A little steep but they weren't made very long. Like 2 year.

Yeah, Diamond Series Schecter from that era are great instruments.
The starting bid does seem a bit high, I'm pretty sure I was selling them new for the BIN price.

This seller raised the starting bid to $700.00 with a $1000.00 BIN... :shock: I hope this is not someone from the board because that is some serious inflation. :lol:

Dark pics cover up blems. That matt finish is prone to shiny wear just by rubbing your finger on it ;)
