Stunning Semi-hollowbody Bass Delivers!

In a nod to their very popular Corsair semi-hollowbody electric guitar, Schecter is beyond pleased to offer a bass version. The Corsair Bass features an arched maple body with classic, stage-ready F-holes, pickguard, and eye-catching chrome Z hardware. An ultra-smooth, playable 3-piece maple neck with ebony fingerboard makes those grooves easy on the fingers. And a pair of EMG TBHZ pickups kick out stellar bass tone. A classic Tune-O-Matic bridge and Tailpiece Bass provide great sustain and tuning support. All of this eye candy is tied in beautifully with the cream, multi-ply binding.

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Super Duper

Fantastic bass that is very versatile despite its 2 band EQ. The EQ with the single pickup fader provides a thumpy neck pickup sound, if that's your thing, or a tight focused bridge sound that still provides a solid bottom end. I like the fader straight down the middle played with a pick for a heavy and beefy modern rock tone. I'm using this in a heavy down tuned band and it sounds fantastic even with loads of gain. The active t-bird pickups never get too muddy and have great articulation. No absurd neck dive at all and the particular instrument I received has flawless fit and finish. I was surprised at how skinny the neck is. It's very easy to play despite the gloss finish, which I generally don't care for. None of the dreaded drag yet. It doesn't come with even a gig bag, which at this price point it should at the very least. I ordered the Guild Starfire Bass case and it fits absolutely perfectly. Snug but not tight. Overall extremely happy with this bass.
