Description
Sound & Tone
The fretless rosewood board and 35" scale give this six-string a smooth, vocal glide with tight, well-defined low B fundamentals, while the mahogany body and bubinga top under neck-thru construction lend warmth and long sustain. Dual EMG 45HZ pickups running on an 18-volt active 3-band EQ cover a wide range, from woody, mwah-heavy fingerstyle warmth to articulate mids and crisp, percussive attack, with the blend control letting you favor bridge bite or neck fullness. It's a natural fit for funk, jazz, fusion, and contemporary session work where sliding intonation and clean extended-range clarity matter.
Schecter Stiletto Studio-6 FL Electric Bass in Honey Satin
The Stiletto Studio-6 FL is a fretless 6-string bass engineered for recording and mixing sessions where expressive articulation and tonal control matter. Its svelte body contours and thin 'C' neck profile create an instrument that responds intuitively to micro-dynamics and finger technique, while the 35" scale and fretless rosewood fingerboard capture nuanced glide work, pitch bends, and note definition essential to funk, jazz, fusion, and contemporary production. The figured bubinga top in honey satin finish delivers visual character that translates to a muscular, articulate voice ready for close-mic'd studio capture.
Playability & Construction
The neck-thru mahogany body with ultra access design provides both structural integrity and comfortable upper-fret access on a 6-string instrument. A maple/walnut multi-ply neck reinforced with carbon fiber rods resists warping while maintaining the responsiveness essential to fretless playing; the dual 2-way adjustable truss rods give you full control over neck relief. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut at 2.125" width and 16" fretboard radius support clean intonation and smooth playability across all six strings.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG 45HZ pickups paired with active 3-band EQ and master volume/blend control deliver articulate low-end punch, singing mids, and controlled high-end presence that cuts through dense mixes without muddiness. The 18-volt active system gives you the headroom and responsiveness to dial in everything from aggressive percussive attack to warm, woody tones without noise or signal degradation. The Diamond Custom Bass bridge couples directly to the body for maximum sustain and clarity across the low B string and fundamental frequencies, ensuring definition in stereo fields and submix balancing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this bass suitable for a beginner fretless player?
No—this is designed for intermediate to advanced players who already have solid fretless intonation skills and understand fretless technique. The Stiletto Studio-6 FL rewards precision and expressive playing; it's best suited for experienced fretless musicians working in jazz, funk, fusion, and studio contexts.
What genres is this bass built for?
The Stiletto Studio-6 FL excels in jazz, funk, fusion, and contemporary studio sessions. It is not voiced for metal or punk and will not perform optimally in those styles.
How does the neck design support fretless playing across six strings?
The thin 'C' profile (0.787" at the 1st fret, 0.866" at the 12th fret) and neck-thru mahogany construction with carbon-fiber reinforcement rods provide both rigidity and responsive feedback critical to fretless intonation. Dual 2-way truss rods let you dial in neck relief for consistent action and playability across all six strings, and the 16" fretboard radius supports smooth intonation control.
What electronics and tonal control does this bass offer?
Dual EMG 45HZ active pickups paired with a 3-band EMG active EQ, master volume, and blend control deliver articulate low-end punch, singing mids, and controlled high-end presence. The 18-volt active system provides headroom and responsiveness to dial in everything from aggressive percussive attack to warm, woody tone.
What is included with the bass?
The bass ships with a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, Diamond Custom Bass bridge with satin gold hardware, dual 2-way adjustable truss rods, and a screw-plate battery compartment for the 18-volt active electronics system. A gig bag or case is not mentioned and should be verified at time of purchase.
