Schecter C-4 Deluxe Bass Satin White
Description
Schecter C-4 Deluxe Bass Satin White
The Schecter C-4 Deluxe sits perfectly balanced whether you're locked in on a stool or standing all night—the flat-top body contour and beveled edges dial in comfort without sacrifice. The thin "C"-shaped maple neck flows under your fingers with speed and responsiveness, while the active 2-band EQ and dual Schecter Diamond Bass pickups unlock everything from warm, vintage warmth to punchy, cutting modern tone. Built to punch through the mix with articulate lows and defined mids, this bass holds its own in any band setting.
Playability & Construction
The bolt-on maple neck's thin "C" profile (0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret) paired with a 16" radius rosewood fretboard and 24 narrow X-Jumbo frets makes for fast, comfortable movement across the 34" scale length. A Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (38mm width) and 2-way adjustable truss rod keep intonation stable and action locked in, while Schecter tuners and a Diamond Bass bridge deliver the tuning stability and sustain you need to hold the low end steady through a full set.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter Diamond Bass pickups positioned at bridge and neck feed into active Volume/Blend/2-Band EQ controls that let you sculpt your sound across the frequency spectrum while the bass retains its natural character. Metal dome knobs with set screws lock your settings tight—essential when you're dialing in tone and need it to stay put during hard playing.
