Schecter Stiletto Studio-4 Electric Bass See-Thru Black Satin
Description
Schecter Stiletto Studio-4 Electric Bass See-Thru Black Satin
The Stiletto Studio-4 delivers a slim, ergonomic neck paired with a perfectly balanced body that supports fatigue-free tracking and overdub sessions. Its 34" scale and thin "C" neck profile produce articulate, defined tone across the full frequency spectrum—essential for capturing clarity in dense mixes. This bass tracks with precision through aggressive playing dynamics and subtle fingerstyle work, translating both to the recording with impressive sustain and note separation.
Playability & Feel
The maple/walnut multi-ply neck measures .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret, enabling fast, comfortable positioning during long tracking days. Twenty-four X-Jumbo frets and a 16" fretboard radius on rosewood guarantee tight intonation and seamless position shifts—critical for punching in takes with consistency. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.496" width) locks in stable string spacing and sustain across all four strings.
Recording Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG 35HZ pickups paired with 3-band EMG Active EQ and a master volume/blend control let producers sculpt the bass response to fit the session—from tight, punchy lows to clear, defined highs. The 18-volt active electronics with screw-plate battery access deliver consistent output across multiple takes, while the Diamond Custom Bass bridge maintains rock-solid intonation and precise note definition needed in the studio.
