Nails the VI Sound!, By ksrp (New York) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Schecter Hellcat VI Electric Guitar (Gloss Black) (Electronics) Got this a few months ago but wanted to wait until after the "honeymoon" period to write a review.....First off, totally ignore what Amazon states here in the description. IT IS NOT an "Extended Scale Baritone Guitar." It is a short-scale, 6-string bass! It is tuned like a standard guitar E to E except one octave below that of a regular guitar. For the record, baritones are usually tuned A-A and have scales of 28" or so as opposed to the 30" scale of the Hellcat VI. A bit of history...Short-scale, bass six stringers (primarily the classic Fender VI made in the '60s) were used and still used by a number of artists. Some examples...Robert Smith of The Cure on many recordings (check out the "Disintegration" album) as well as The Beatles (Harrison and Lennon) on some of their later albums. Peter Hook in Joy Division/New Order. Joe Perry played one on "Back in the Saddle." Jack Bruce recorded the first Cream album with one. The Schecter - unlike some other...

It's not a bass, and it's not a guitar. It's a totally different animal. Great for fans of the Cure, Joy Division, etc. |
