Description
Schecter NP-4 String Nadja Peulen Bass Red Syren
The Schecter NP-4 Nadja Peulen Signature Bass sits naturally in the hands with an ergonomic body that moves with you on stage. The responsive neck tracks every nuance—from aggressive attack to delicate dynamic control—across metal, progressive rock, funk, and jazz fusion. The Red Syren finish pairs with punchy, articulate electronics that punch through any live mix, serving up warm lows and snappy mids that respond precisely to your touch. This bass rewards both intensity and subtlety in equal measure.
Playability & Construction
Neck-thru mahogany construction with carbon fiber reinforcement rods locks in stability and sustain across the 34-inch scale. The thin "C"-shaped neck measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.905" at the twelfth fret, tapering smoothly to accommodate a wide range of hand sizes and playing techniques. Built for the road and the studio alike.
Tone & Electronics
EMG 35DC bridge pickup and 35P4 neck humbucker pickups deliver the articulate, punchy character that cuts live, with a 2-band onboard EQ and dedicated blend control letting you shape tone from warm and rounded to bright and cutting on the fly. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut and Schecter Diamond Custom bridge (supporting string-thru and top-load configurations) further refine sustain and tonal clarity for both studio tracking and stage performance.
