Schecter C-5 GT Bass Satin Charcoal Burst B-Stock 0518

Schecter C-5 GT Bass Satin Charcoal Burst B-Stock

The Schecter C-5 GT delivers a comfortable, responsive playing experience with its thin 'C' neck profile and 35" extended scale designed for modern five-string bass work. The set-neck construction with Ultra Access provides excellent upper-fret playability while maintaining the tonal resonance of a traditionally built instrument. This B-stock unit offers full specification compliance at a reduced price point.

Playability & Construction

Built with a mahogany body and flamed maple top, the C-5 GT features a three-piece maple neck reinforced with carbon fiber rods for stability and minimal neck dive. The ebony fingerboard with 24 X-Jumbo frets and 16" radius accommodate both traditional fingerstyle and aggressive playing techniques, while the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.771" width) ensures reliable string definition across the extended range.

Electronics & Tone

Active electronics powered by dual EMG pickups—the 40DC bridge and 40P5 neck models—deliver punchy, articulate lows with transparent midrange clarity. The 2-band active EQ with master volume and blend control provides surgical tone-shaping capability, while the integrated 9-volt battery compartment maintains professional-grade signal integrity throughout extended sessions.
