schecter hellcat vi Unique instruments often push Andy out of his comfort zone and result in memorable videos. The Schecter Hellcat VI six- string bass is just such an instrument. With a 30- inch scale and a range that lives somewhere between guitar, bass, and baritone, the Hellcat is an unusual beast, but Andy totally slays it. This video opens with a one-man rendition of Motörhead’s “Ace of Spades,” followed by some groovy tic-tac bass playing, and then a brilliant version of Freddie Hubbard’s 1976 jazz classic, “Red Clay.” Can you say “tour de force?” ToneRepor t .com 47
