Schecter Guitar Research

collapse expand iconDescription

The Schecter C-5 GT 5-string electric bass guitar is designed for full-throttle, high-octane performance that pushes the limits. It features a mahogany body paired with a flamed maple, full radius top and is decorated with a "GT" racing stripe for eye-catching visuals. Armed with an ultrafast 3-piece maple neck, this bass was built for speed and comfort. The neck has been shaped with an ultrathin "C" profile and the deep insert neck joint construction allows easy access to the upper frets. The 16" radius ebony fingerboard is outfitted with 24 extra-jumbo frets, while offset/reverse Roman numeral inlays add a touch of darkness to this speed machine. With an EMG 40DC in the bridge position and an EMG 40P5 in the neck position, master volume and blend controls, and a 2-band EMG EQ, the C-5 GT offers a wealth of sonic possibilities at your fingertips. Rounding out the black hardware is a Schecter Custom bass bridge that will stabilize tuning and withstand anything you can dish out.
