Schecter studio 4 or ns pulse 4.can only get 1

It’s hard to say because everyone has their own ideas about tone. That being said, I think the Spector had a punchier sound than the Schecter, but that was a Euro. Different body woods and electronics. I really don’t know anything about the Pulse.

I might be a little biased, I have the NS Pulse 5. Build quality is impeccable, very similar to my USA Fenders and Kiesel. The only complain I’ve heard about it is the preamp, the Czech-made Tone Pump Jr. It has weird control parameters BUT it definitely has the Spector tone.
The bass is pretty light too. Mine is a hair under 8 pounds, and that’s the 5er.

I’m also a fan of Schecters– especially the bang-for-your-buck aspect.
