Sound & Tone
With a basswood body, maple neck, and rosewood fretboard, the Stiletto Stealth-5 has a punchy, articulate voice with a bright, snappy attack that cuts through a dense mix. Its Schecter Diamond SuperRock MM bridge pickup and Diamond P neck pickup cover a wide range, from the growl and bite of a humbucker in the bridge position to the round, focused thump of a P-style pickup at the neck. The active 2-band EQ and blend control let you dial in the right voice for each style. The 35" scale gives the low fifth string extra tension and definition, and the slim neck suits fast passages and aggressive slapping in rock, metal, funk, and progressive music.
Schecter Stiletto Stealth-5 Left-Handed Electric Bass Satin Black
The Schecter Stiletto Stealth-5 left-handed model captures articulate, punchy bass tones with a fast, slim neck profile that enables precise tracking of intricate passages and aggressive slapping techniques in the studio. The sleek satin black finish provides comfortable hand feel during extended tracking sessions, while the characteristic brightness and snappy attack cuts through dense mixes with definition and clarity. This left-handed configuration delivers the same premium recording experience as its right-handed counterparts, with flawless electronics and hardware that respond consistently to dynamic playing variations.
Playability & Construction
Built on a basswood body with 6-bolt-on neck construction, this bass delivers solid sustain and tonal clarity essential for studio tracking. The maple neck features a thin "C" profile measuring 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret, paired with a rosewood fretboard and 24 X-Jumbo frets across a 16" radius for comfortable chording and smooth bends during overdub sessions.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter Diamond SuperRock MM bridge pickup and Schecter Diamond P neck pickup deliver dynamic range across the frequency spectrum for versatile recording applications, while the active 2-band EQ with master volume and blend controls allows precise tone shaping during mix integration. A 9-volt clip-in battery compartment powers the active electronics, ensuring consistent headroom and output stability through complete recording sessions.
