Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with a flamed maple top and set maple neck lends weight and sustain to a fundamentally warm core, while the ebony fretboard and string-through Schecter bridge sharpen note attack and harmonic clarity. Active EMG pickups — the 40P5 at the neck for thick, focused midrange and the 40DC at the bridge for tighter growl — run through a 2-band EQ with blend, giving quick access to everything from round fingerstyle tones to aggressive, cutting slap and pick work. The 35" scale keeps the low B tight and defined, making it a practical fit for modern rock, metal, funk and session work where five-string clarity matters.
Schecter C-5 GT Bass Natural B-Stock
The Schecter C-5 GT is a 5-string bass engineered to capture articulate, modern tone in the studio while maintaining the ergonomic design and extended low-end definition required for contemporary bass tracking. Its thin "C" neck profile and 35" scale deliver responsive playability across long session work without sacrificing harmonic clarity on the bottom end. This B-stock example offers full specifications at a reduced price point.
Recording Playability & Neck Feel
The set-neck construction with Ultra Access cutaway provides comfortable reach to all 24 extra-jumbo frets during overdubs and layering, while the thin "C" profile maintains precision and speed across extended takes. The 35" scale combined with a Graph Tech Black Tusq XL nut and ebony fretboard with offset reverse Roman numeral inlays produces a bass that captures both traditional resonance and modern clarity in the mix.
Tone & Signal Path
Dual EMG pickups—the EMG 40DC bridge and EMG 40P5 neck—deliver the articulate, controlled output essential for studio recording and post-production flexibility. The 2-band EMG EQ provides tracking-ready tonal shaping without external processing, while the Schecter Custom Bass Bridge with string-through design ensures maximum sustain and harmonic clarity across all five strings for tight low-end definition in the final mix.
