Boasting Schecter USA pickups handmade in California, this bass delivers a spectrum of tones complementing any style. With premium features and stunning aesthetics, the Stargazer-5 elevates your playing experience.

Premium Pickups for Versatile Tone

The Schecter USA M-25 bridge pickup and J-25 neck pickup provide warm, mellow tones as well as aggressive, cutting-edge sounds. Sculpt your tone with the volume, blend and tone controls as well as the 3-way mini toggle switching between series, split and parallel wiring for the bridge pickup and 2-way mini toggle for coil tapping the neck pickup.

Maple and Mahogany for Resonant Sound

The mahogany body and 3-piece maple neck give the Stargazer-5 a resonant yet balanced tone. The maple fingerboard further enhances note clarity and definition. With a 35" scale length, 16" radius and 22 jumbo frets, the neck offers a thin C profile for fast, comfortable playing.

Premium Components for Unparalleled Playability

Chrome hardware, including Schecter tuners and a custom bass bridge, provide rock-solid tuning stability and intonation. The 45 mm TUSQ XL nut improves sustain and resonance. White single-ply binding adds a touch of elegance.

Boundless Expression

With striking aesthetics, innovative features and Schecter's commitment to quality, the Stargazer-5 ensures your musical expression knows no limits. The white single-ply binding contrasts elegantly with the gloss black finish. The combination of features like the 3-way mini toggle for pickup control and 2-way mini toggle for coil tap means you have a bass that can keep up with your evolving artistry.
