Schecter Ultra Bass Guitar in Pellham Blue Prototype 2542

This Schecter Ultra Bass prototype delivers a refined playing experience through its thin 'C' neck profile and 34" scale, engineered for extended reach and minimal hand fatigue during extended sessions. The neck-thru construction with Ultra Access provides seamless upper-fret navigation, while the Pellham Blue finish showcases Schecter's attention to aesthetic detail on this development model. A prototype instrument of this caliber offers players the opportunity to own a piece of the design evolution process with no visible finish imperfections.

Construction & Materials

The bass features a mahogany body with neck-thru construction, paired with a 5-piece mahogany/maple neck reinforced by carbon fiber rods for tonal resonance and structural stability. The ebony fretboard with pearloid offset reverse-dot inlays complements the instrument's premium positioning, while 20 x-jumbo frets on a 16" radius provide modern playability across all registers.

Electronics & Hardware

Dual EMG TBHZ pickups with independent volume controls and a master tone knob deliver aggressive, articulate tones suitable for contemporary bass styles. The Schecter Custom Bass bridge with string-thru body design maximizes sustain and resonance, while open-gear lightweight tuners and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut ensure tuning stability and tonal clarity.
