schecter

[Sav'nBass]

I just picked up a stiletto studio 5, not sure how great that is up against the other schecters. But I love the damn thing. P.s.there's a whole schecter owners club thread on here. Post up some pictures!

That's what I have .. and it is a great bass. When I got my JV24 I was going to sell the Shcecter but I couldn't. It plays well.. and it has a different sound to it than the Fender.. It is a little grittier .. at least to my ears.. and it is a beautiful bass. The Fender is my main bass... I like the feel of it and I like the electronics in it better.. they are not stock .. but I still play the Schecter.

I picked this up in a local pawn shop a few years back.. I think it was like .. 5 bills if I remember correctly..

Got mine on craigslist for $350 with the hard case.

I almost purchased a Custom Stiletto, but I didn't like it only having a 2band EQ - so I went with Ibby SR. Other than that - I think they're some nice instruments.

I have played many stilettos and I like them a lot and I understand the controls and whatnot. However, I cant get my hands on a pawn shop mustang. None of my local music stores have them in stock :/ so I think I'm going to be sticking with the stiletto. Thank u for all your help

I currently own a fretless Studio-4, fretted Custom-4, and fretted 5 string P bass from Schecter. Out of the three, my favorite is the fretless. However, I spent about 7 years with the Custom-4 as my one and only. The P bass is also an amazing bass for the price. Just pick any one of them.

FWIW - I had a Schecter Jazz bass for a while and it was fantastic. A guy from a heavily gigging band whom I used to hang out with, liked it so much, I sold it to him and he used it over his Marcus Miller.

I have a Stargazer-5, and it is the best bass I have ever played. However, the only reason I got it was because it was cheap because it was discontinued.

Does it look too much like a rickenbacker?

Yes I am very torn between the two. The schecter I want is a little more complicated than some of the fenders I am interested in. I just don't really understand the knobs. I am a newer bassist and I'm not very experianced in tone customization

I have played many stilettos and I like them a lot and I understand the controls and whatnot.

I'm confused... Do you understand them or don't you? You said both.

Anyway, if the Stiletto is your bag, enjoy!

The knobs are for changing your pickup tone, volume, and blend or choose which pickup you want.

I have a flawless Stiletto Extreme 5 on ebay for 299.99. Love the bass, just not a 5-string guy. I also own the Extreme 4, and it's my go-to bass.

Indeed they are awesome basses. my other choice of a schecter bass would of been a schecter C-5 deluxe 5-string bass. I was kinda curious about that bass, but I had my heart set on buying a stiletto 5-string bass.
