Description
Sound & Tone
The fretless rosewood board and mahogany body with bubinga top give this five-string a warm, vocal core with singing sustain and smooth slides between notes, while the neck-thru maple/walnut construction keeps the response focused and articulate. Dual EMG 40HZ pickups running an 18-volt 3-band active EQ push clear highs and tight, controlled lows, and the blend control lets you move from midrange growl to a rounder, bridge-and-neck balanced voice. The 35-inch scale keeps the low B defined, making it well suited to fusion, jazz, gospel, and modern progressive playing where mwah-heavy lead lines and clean extended-range grooves are the goal.
Schecter Stiletto Studio-5 FL Left-Handed Electric Bass Honey Satin
The Stiletto Studio-5 FL captures the nuanced, vocal character that fretless bass brings to a recording session. Its thin "C" profile neck and fretless fingerboard enable smooth glissandi and microtonal adjustment without fret noise, making it ideal for left-handed players tracking everything from jazz and funk to contemporary music requiring expressive low-end articulation. Neck-thru construction with a mahogany body topped in bubinga yields focused sustain and clarity that cuts through dense mixes while remaining tonally warm, giving engineers and producers a versatile palette for bass layering and overdubs.
Playability & Construction
Built with neck-thru Ultra Access construction, this bass offers seamless access to upper frets while maintaining structural integrity. The 35-inch scale and maple/walnut multi-ply neck provide stability and sustain, while the rosewood fretboard with fretless lines and Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut ensure precise intonation and smooth playability. Neck measurements of .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th fret keep the thin profile consistent for comfortable left-handed operation.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG 40HZ pickups with 18-volt active EQ deliver the articulate highs and controlled lows essential for fretless work in the studio, capturing subtle finger dynamics and allowing producers to shape tone across multiple takes. The 3-band EMG active EQ combined with master volume and blend controls provides extensive shaping options for tracking, mixing to tape or DAW, while the Diamond Custom Bass bridge and satin gold hardware contribute to the instrument's balanced resonance and modern aesthetic.
