Schecter Stiletto Studio-8 Electric Bass See-Thru Black Satin

Schecter Stiletto Studio-8 Electric Bass See-Thru Black Satin

The Stiletto Studio-8 delivers a thin, fast neck profile paired with extended 8-string range, making it comfortable for extended sessions and complex harmonic work. The neck-thru construction with ultra access provides solid sustain and resonance while maintaining ergonomic balance across the wider fingerboard. This is a serious instrument for players demanding expanded tonal palette and professional playability.

Playability & Construction

The thin 'C' neck profile measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, allowing quick position shifts across the rosewood fretboard's 16" radius. Neck-thru construction with ultra access body contour ensures comfortable access to all 24 X-Jumbo frets while maintaining the structural integrity essential for 8-string tuning stability.

Tone & Electronics

Dual EMG 35HZ pickups—positioned at neck and bridge—feed into active circuitry with master volume, blend control, and 3-band EQ, delivering the articulate, punchy response characteristic of quality active bass systems. The 18-volt battery compartment provides ample headroom for dynamic range and clarity across all eight strings.
