I have been looking for a Bass VI type instrument for a long time. When I found out about this one I was immediately intrigued. The big problem with any guitar at this price point is the consistency of quality. One HCVI review I read somewhere mentioned that it was a good guitar but the neck required a lot of work, whereas other reviews don't raise any such complaints. I did not buy my HCVI from Amazon. I got it from a music shop in my home area. When it came in the low E just sounded dead from the 7th fret up. The shop at the store looked at the bass and said they wouldn't sell it because the neck was too messed up. They sent it back to Schecter and ordered another. I got that one and it was perfect. The shop looked at it and the neck was great and this one sounds and looks amazing. A huge bargain for the price. I give this instrument a 5 star rating, but I've lowered it to 4 just because there are some "duds" out there. Make sure you play it before you buy it if at all possible, or at least know the exchange policy if you have to get it online.
Oh, and I can't afford it either, but I played this through a '59 Bassman reissue at the music store and it sounds amazing. Those two are made for each other.Get more detail about Schecter Hellcat VI Electric Guitar (3-Tone Sunburst).
