Frequently Asked Questions
What pickup voicings does this bass have?
The 3-way toggle switch offers Classic, Funk, and Modern voicings, each tailored to different tonal characters. All three are powered by dual Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups and an 18-volt 3-band EQ, giving you broad sonic range in a single instrument.
Is the 35-inch scale suitable for my playing style?
The 35-inch scale is designed for tight, punchy response and is especially favored in funk and progressive genres. It works well for intermediate to advanced players; if you're new to extended scales, the extra reach and string tension may take a few weeks to adjust to.
What's included with this bass?
You get the bass with factory setup, a set of Ernie Ball Super Long 5-string strings, full manufacturer warranty, and a Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut. The case is sold separately.
How does this compare to the Ibanez SR Premium 5 or Lakland Skyline 55-02?
The Schecter offers a neck-thru build with carbon reinforcement and versatile voicing switching, where the SR is known for slim necks and the Lakland for traditional jazz tone. All three excel in different contexts—this model leans toward modern studio and touring flexibility with active electronics and multiple switching options.
What is the neck profile like?
The neck has a 'C' shape that is 0.826 inches thick at the first fret and 0.905 inches at the 12th, sitting comfortably in the hand for extended playing sessions. The 16-inch fretboard radius and ebony wood provide smooth, responsive feel across all 24 X-Jumbo frets.
