Schecter Stiletto Studio-5 Fanned Fret Bass Honey Satin B-Stock 0677
Description
Schecter Stiletto Studio-5 Fanned Fret Bass Honey Satin B-Stock
The Stiletto Studio-5 is engineered as a recording and session-ready five-string platform built on a neck-through foundation with fanned frets that optimize intonation and hand ergonomics across modern bass techniques. The thin 'C' neck profile and moderate nut width suit varied hand geometries while delivering the precision tracking required for close-miked bass capture and studio punch. This B-stock unit offers the full specification and performance of a new instrument at a reduced price point.
Playability & Neck Design
The 34"-36" fanned fret scale aligns finger angles naturally across all five strings, reducing hand fatigue during long tracking sessions and layering work. 24 X-Jumbo frets and a 16" fretboard radius accommodate both articulate finger work and smooth legato phrasing, critical for capturing clean takes. A Maple/Walnut multi-ply neck ensures stable tuning and sustain throughout extended studio sessions, paired with a Rosewood fretboard featuring offset dot inlays for visual reference under stage and studio lighting.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG 40HZ pickups paired with 18-volt active circuitry and 3-band EMG EQ capture punchy, defined low-end response with surgical frequency control for mix integration. The Master Volume/Blend control enables on-the-fly tonal shaping between neck and bridge pickups, allowing producers and engineers to dial in anything from fat, focused lows to aggressive, articulate highs without re-recording.
