Description
Sound & Tone
A mahogany body gives this 12-string bass a warm, resonant foundation with a strong midrange, while the ebony fretboard and 34" scale keep each course clear and articulate. The string set pairs each fundamental with two higher octave strings, producing a full, shimmering, almost chorus-like tone that thickens riffs and fills out the low end. A Schecter USA M-25 bridge pickup with series, split and parallel switching delivers punchy, clear tones, and a coil-tappable J-25 neck pickup adds smooth warmth, so the bass can move from big layered rhythm parts to more defined lines that cut through a band mix.
