A 5-string Designed for Stage and Studio
This 5-string bass embraces a decidedly modern approach: a long scale to secure the low register, a fast neck for modern playing styles, and electronics that allow switching from a dense sound to sharper textures. The choice of a mahogany body and maple neck/fretboard aims for a balance between warmth, definition, and attack, with a timeless "Gloss White" aesthetic.
Who Is It For, and Which Styles?
It is well suited for intermediate to advanced bassists seeking a reliable, precise, and versatile 5-string. The 35" / 889 mm scale will particularly appeal to genres requiring a clean and tight low end: metal, modern rock, gospel, pop, and R&B. The Thin "C" neck profile and jumbo frets also facilitate fast techniques, pick playing, and wide left-hand stretches.
Tone
The mahogany body provides a warm foundation, with present low-mids and a sense of "weight" in the note, while the maple neck and fretboard add attack and clarity, useful for cutting through a mix. The Schecter USA M-25 / J-25 pickup configuration is controlled by Volume, Blend, and Tone knobs to instantly shape the character of both pickups. The mini-switches expand versatility: a 3-way toggle dedicated to the bridge pickup (series/split/parallel) allows switching from a more compact and powerful output to a more open response, and a 2-way toggle for the neck pickup (coil tap) offers a clearer and more articulate alternative. The result: a bass capable of covering round sounds for groove as well as sharper attacks for slap or riffs.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the original setup, you can stick with Ernie Ball 5 String Super Long 2850 (.045-.130) strings. For transport, the bass can be paired with an optional SGR-UNIVERSAL BASS gig bag.
