Sound & Tone
Neck-thru mahogany with a maple/walnut multi-ply center gives this 34"-scale bass a sustaining, resonant foundation, and the EMG TBHZ pickups in the neck and bridge positions add articulate, punchy attack with clarity from low fundamentals to upper harmonics. The Volume/Volume/Tone layout lets you blend the fuller neck voice against the tighter bridge bite quickly, while the Tune-O-Matic and stopbar keep notes defined and tightly focused. It suits driving picked rock and post-punk lines as readily as expressive fingerstyle passages, with a thin "C" rosewood-boarded neck that stays comfortable through long, technical parts.
Schecter Simon Gallup Ultra Spitfire Bass White with Red Lion
This Schecter Simon Gallup Ultra Spitfire Bass sits in the hand like it was built for serious gigging. The thin "C" neck shape and balanced body design let you tear through aggressive picked passages without sacrificing the control you need for expressive fingerstyle work, while the neck-thru construction delivers the sustain and resonance that cuts through a live mix. The striking white finish with bold Red Lion graphic looks as good under stage lights as it plays in the pocket.
Playability & Construction
The 34" scale with 22 medium frets and rosewood fretboard (16" radius) keeps your intonation locked in night after night without the fret wear that kills budget instruments. Neck-thru mahogany construction with maple/walnut multi-ply translates to tone that doesn't quit and a neck that stays stable through gear changes and travel. The thin "C" neck profile means you can dial in extended technique work without your hand giving out during a two-hour set.
Tone & Electronics
EMG TBHZ pickups in bridge and neck positions punch through the mix with articulate clarity—they're built for players who need definition in a full band context. The Volume/Volume/Tone control layout gives you real-time shaping without hunting for parameters mid-song, while the Tune-O-Matic bridge with Stopbar tailpiece locks your tuning solid and maintains consistent string-to-bridge contact for the sustain and definition that a working bassist demands.
