Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with a flamed maple top and set maple neck lends weight and sustain to a fundamentally warm core, while the ebony fretboard and string-through Schecter bridge sharpen note attack and harmonic clarity. Active EMG pickups — the 40P5 at the neck for thick, focused midrange and the 40DC at the bridge for tighter growl — run through a 2-band EQ with blend, giving quick access to everything from round fingerstyle tones to aggressive, cutting slap and pick work. The 35" scale keeps the low B tight and defined, making it a practical fit for modern rock, metal, funk and session work where five-string clarity matters.
Schecter C-5 GT Bass Natural B-Stock
The Schecter C-5 GT is a 5-string bass built for bassists who need modern ergonomics and articulate tone without compromise. Its thin "C" neck profile and 35" scale deliver responsive playability on stage and in the studio while maintaining the extended low-end definition that cuts through any mix. This B-stock example offers full specifications at a reduced price point.
Playability & Feel
The set-neck construction with Ultra Access cutaway puts all 24 extra-jumbo frets within easy reach, while the thin "C" profile keeps your hand moving fast through extended gigs and sessions. The 35" scale paired with a Graph Tech Black Tusq XL nut and ebony fretboard with offset reverse Roman numeral inlays feels refined under your fingers without sacrificing the modern playability touring musicians demand.
Tone & Electronics
Dual EMG pickups—the EMG 40DC bridge and EMG 40P5 neck—deliver the articulate, controlled punch needed to lock in with a band or stand out in a mix. The 2-band EMG EQ gives you essential tonal control for different rooms and rigs, while the Schecter Custom Bass Bridge with string-through design locks in maximum sustain and harmonic clarity across all five strings for reliable, consistent tone night after night.
