Sound & Tone
The mahogany body with flamed maple and walnut top gives this four-string a warm, weighty foundation, while the dual EMG 35HZ pickups keep the low end tight and the midrange focused for notes that stay defined even under heavy gain. The 34" scale and maple/walnut multi-ply neck add firmness and clarity to the attack, and blending the neck and bridge positions moves you from rounder, fuller support to a punchier, more cutting voice. With 24 X-Jumbo frets, a 16" radius, and a thin 'C' profile, it suits modern rock and metal, funk and fingerstyle grooves, and any style where fast runs and articulate note separation matter.
Schecter Stiletto Custom-4 Electric Bass Gloss Natural
The Stiletto Custom-4 sits perfectly in the hands with a thin, fast neck and comfortable 'C' profile that responds immediately to your playing dynamics. Its mahogany body topped with flamed maple and walnut delivers both striking stage presence and a solid tonal foundation. Built for bassists who demand precision articulation and clarity in a compact four-string package.
Playability & Neck Design
The Maple/Walnut multi-ply neck features a thin 'C' shape measuring .787" at the 1st fret and .866" at the 12th, paired with a rosewood fretboard and 24 X-Jumbo frets for effortless lateral movement and smooth note bending across the board. The 16" fretboard radius and Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut (1.496" width) ensure rock-solid intonation and comfortable fretting feel across the entire 34" scale.
Electronics & Tone
Dual EMG 35HZ pickups deliver focused, articulate output with tight low-end definition—essential for cutting through live mixes across any genre. The 9-volt clip-in battery compartment and metal knurled control knobs with set screws guarantee reliable performance night after night with precise gain adjustment, while satin gold hardware and the S-Tek bridge provide solid construction and sustained resonance for every note.
