Schecter Introduces Nikki Sixx Signature Bass

Schecter and Nikki Sixx have teamed up to release the “Schecter Sixx” Bass, a 4-string signature model for the Motley Crue bassist. Sixx, who also is an accomplished author and radio show host, collaborated with the company to create the instrument.

“It was an exciting and creative process to work with Schecter on the new Schecter Sixx Signature Series Bass,” he said. “It was important to all of us to design a bass that would feel right as well as sound amazing in the hands of all players, not just me.”

Built with a mahogany body, multi-laminate maple and walnut neck, and rosewood fingerboard, the Schecter Sixx bass is loaded with EMG’s active P/J pickup set. Controls include a Volume knob for each pickup, a master tone, and a Kill switch.

The Nikki Sixx “Schecter Sixx” Bass will be available with an MSRP of $1,399. A left-handed version will be available for $1,449. For more info, check out the Schecter website.
