Schecter dUg Pinnick Signature Basses

In the studio, bass is where a track gets its weight, and dUg Pinnick's signature Schecter models are designed around the multi-string tone he is known for. The series offers the Baron-H in Gloss Black and the DP-12 twelve-string in Satin Black, two different ways to put that character on a recording.

The Baron-H is the straightforward tracking choice for rock and hard rock sessions where you need a bass that sits under guitars and drums. The DP-12 is a more specialized tool. Its twelve strings can add a thick, chorused texture, useful for progressive and alternative arrangements, or for a part you want to stand apart in the mix. Left-handed versions of both are listed, so lefty players and engineers recording them have options.

For producers building a bass collection, a signature model offers a distinct voice that is hard to get from a generic four-string. Studio Gears lists this series from about $1,199 to $1,549, and the grid below reflects current availability.
