Description
Sound & Tone
The active EMG 40DC bridge and 40P5 neck pickups push a punchy, tightly focused voice with defined midrange, while the 35" scale keeps the low B firm and clear rather than loose. Mahogany with a flamed maple top and an ebony fretboard lean toward articulate attack and cutting definition, and the blend control plus 2-band EMG EQ let you move from deep, thunderous fundamentals to bright, snappy tones on the fly. It suits modern rock, metal, and progressive playing, along with slap and fingerstyle work where clarity across five strings matters.
Schecter C-5 GT Bass Satin Trans Red B-Stock
The C-5 GT sits naturally in your hands with its thin "C"-shaped neck profile and ergonomic body contours built for extended playing sessions. The 35" scale and set-neck construction with Ultra Access give you instant access to higher frets without sacrificing neck stability, while the satin trans red finish with black racing stripe commands attention on stage. As B-stock, this bass is unplayed and in excellent condition—minor cosmetic scratches near the knobs represent the only deviation from new.
Playability & Construction
The three-piece maple neck with thin "C" profile measures 0.787" at the first fret and 0.866" at the 12th, engineered for speed and comfort. A mahogany body with flamed maple top, ebony fretboard, and 24 X-Jumbo frets over a 16" radius create a responsive, articulate playing surface, while Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut at 1.771" width ensures solid tuning stability and string separation.
Tone & Stage Reliability
The combination of EMG 40DC bridge pickup and EMG 40P5 neck pickup delivers punchy lows and defined midrange character essential to five-string bass work. Master volume and blend controls paired with 2-band EMG EQ let you dial in everything from deep, thunderous fundamentals to bright, articulate tones on the fly—no need for external gear to find your sound live or in the studio.
