Schecter Omen Extreme-4 Electric Bass in Vintage Sunburst Finish
The Omen Extreme-4 delivers a slim, comfortable playing experience thanks to its thin "C" neck profile and manageable body weight from the mahogany construction with flamed maple top. The 34" scale and 24 X-Jumbo frets provide plenty of real estate for technique work and fast passages without excessive hand strain. This right-handed four-string is built for serious players who demand responsive playability and articulate tone in a compact, aesthetically refined package.
Playability & Construction
The maple neck with rosewood fretboard and thin "C" profile (.787" at the 1st fret, .866" at the 12th fret) sits naturally in the hand, while the 24 X-Jumbo frets and 16" fretboard radius accommodate both precision work and full-hand vibrato techniques. Six bolt-on construction with black chrome hardware ensures rock-solid neck stability and a clean, modern aesthetic that complements the vintage sunburst finish and crème multi-ply binding.
Tone & Electronics
Dual Schecter Diamond Bass humbucking pickups deliver focused, articulate midrange with controlled low-end response—ideal for cutting through a mix in live and studio settings. The active 2-band EQ with Master Volume and Blend controls powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery gives you broad tonal flexibility, from punchy attack to warm, compressed sustain, without requiring permanent modification to the instrument.
