Description
Sound & Tone
The mahogany body lends warm, mid-forward resonance while the maple neck and fretboard add brightness and attack, and the 34" scale keeps low notes tight and full. The Schecter USA M-25 bridge pickup brings punch and clarity, the J-25 neck pickup smooths things out, and the series/split/parallel toggle plus neck coil tap let you move from thick, humbucking growl to leaner, more open single-coil voices. With a thin "C" neck, 16" radius and jumbo frets, it suits rock, metal and funk players who want fast fingerstyle runs or aggressive picking, and enough tonal range to cover rhythm duties and melodic lead lines alike.
Schecter Stargazer-4 Bass in Gloss Black
The Schecter Stargazer-4 is built for working bassists who need a reliable, comfortable instrument that delivers on stage and in the studio. Its slim Thin "C" neck profile and Deep Insert Neck Joint with Ultra Access heel let you navigate the entire fretboard without fatigue during long sets. Solid mahogany construction paired with dual USA-made pickups and versatile electronics gives you the tonal flexibility to lock in across multiple genres and venues.
Playability & Feel
The 34" scale with 22 jumbo frets and 16" fretboard radius deliver a fast, responsive feel on the maple fretboard with black block inlays—ideal for both dead-center pocket work and melodic runs. Neck dimensions of 0.787" at the 1st fret and 0.866" at the 12th fret sit comfortably in your hand during extended gigs, while the Ultra Access heel makes upper-register work effortless without hand strain or awkward reaching.
Tone & Electronics
The Schecter USA M-25 bridge pickup and Schecter USA J-35 neck pickup give you a broad sonic range to dial in your tone for any room or set. Real-time control comes through the 3-way mini toggle for bridge pickup (series, split, parallel) and 2-way mini toggle for neck pickup coil tap, letting you shape your sound without reaching for a pedal board. The Schecter Diamond Custom Bass bridge and Graph Tech XL Tusq nut keep your intonation rock-solid through entire gigs and ensure every note cuts clearly through the mix.
