Killer Schecter 5-string Bass with Retro Styling
For killer performance and retro styling, it's hard to top the Schecter J-5. Expect loads of natural resonance and tone, thanks to an alder body and maple neck. Plug in, and you'll take this classic tone to new heights, by way of USA MonsterTone-J pickups. As for comfort, after wrapping your hand around this bass's Thin "C" neck, you'll have a really hard time putting it down. This bass also includes an easy-playing 16"-radius maple fingerboard with 21 Narrow X-jumbo frets and a Graph Tech XL ivory TUSQ nut. The Schecter J-5 boasts string-through and top load options, along with eye-catching black hardware.
Natural tone and resonance
The Schecter J-5 is chock-full of natural tone, thanks to its alder body and maple neck. The alder delivers the solid, balanced sound you've heard on countless classic recordings, with equal doses of lows, mids, and highs. The maple injects this resonant tone with ear-popping brightness and incredible sustain. At Sweetwater, we appreciate a bass that produces great-sounding tone — even before you plug it in!
USA MonsterTone-J pickups
As great as the J-5 sounds acoustically, it was built to be plugged in — and you won't be disappointed! Its USA MonsterTone-J pickups perfectly replicate the look and performance of Schecter's original late-1970s design, by virtue of original-vendor vulcanized fiberboard bobbin construction and eight 0.25"-diameter high-carbon steel pole pieces. Beyond that, you get direct-coupled high-strength ceramic 8 magnet and proprietary-wound USA-made magnet wire. Two distinctly numbered coils per pickup unlock new universes of tone via coil-tapping, which you can activate with the J-5's push-pull tone knob.
Easy-playing maple neck
Pick up the Schecter J-5, and you'll experience extreme comfort, thanks to its Thin "C" neck carve. Its 35" scale injects your playing with additional punch, attack, and definition. Beyond that, the neck's dense, strong construction offers incredible sustain and stability. And for the ultimate in easy playability, its 16"-radius maple fingerboard is loaded with 21 Narrow X-jumbo frets and a Graph Tech XL ivory TUSQ nut.
