Sound & Tone
Swamp ash and a bolt-on maple neck give this 34"-scale four-string a lively, tight low end with pronounced upper-midrange snap and quick note attack. The EMG 35J at the neck and 35DC at the bridge run on an 18-volt active system, so output stays clean and headroom-rich, with the 3-band EQ and blend letting you dial anything from round, fingerstyle warmth to aggressive, scooped slap or a cutting bridge-pickup growl. The 24 frets and string-thru bridge support articulate upper-register work, making it a fit for modern rock, metal, funk, fusion and session playing where clarity and dynamic control matter.
Schecter Session Stiletto-4 Electric Bass Aged Natural Satin B-Stock
The Stiletto-4 sits solidly in your hands with its 'C'-shaped maple neck and 34" scale—balanced geometry that supports both precise fretting and comfortable reach during long sets. The Aged Natural Satin finish showcases the swamp ash body's grain character, while bolt-on construction keeps the instrument resonant and articulate at stage volume. Note: This is B-stock with a minor scratch on the back of the neck—a cosmetic issue that does not affect playability or sound.
Playability & Build
The neck measures .826" at the first fret and .905" at the 12th fret, fitting most hand shapes without fatigue during extended playing. 24 Narrow X-Jumbo frets combined with a 12" fretboard radius make fast lateral work and clean intonation automatic, gig after gig. The Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.496" width) locks in consistent string response and definition, while ebony side block inlays keep your place on the neck with understated style.
Electronics & Tone
The 18-volt active electronics pair dual EMG-designed pickups—EMG 35J at the neck and EMG 35DC at the bridge—for articulate, punchy output with serious headroom. A 3-band active EQ with master volume and blend controls puts surgical shaping of low-end depth, midrange punch, and treble snap within arm's reach, whether you're locking in with a five-piece or running through a monitor mix.
