Schecter C-5 Standard 5-String Bass - Tobacco Burl | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The Schecter C-5 Standard 5-string bass exemplifies how Schecter's Standard series broadens the accessibility of their esteemed designs while maintaining the unwavering commitment to quality that characterizes the brand. This exceptional instrument features a burl-topped mahogany body that serves as a rich and harmonically profound foundation, ensuring well-balanced sound with comprehensive articulation across all registers. The roasted maple neck contributes bright tonal quality and exceptional note clarity, enabling various playing techniques - picking, slapping, leads, licks, and chords - to be expressed with remarkable definition and musical versatility.
Product Overview
The C-5 Standard showcases a mahogany body topped with stunning figured burl that provides both exceptional tonal characteristics and striking visual appeal. The mahogany delivers warm, rich fundamental tones with excellent sustain, while the figured burl top adds unique visual character and additional tonal complexity. The 35" scale length enhances string tension and clarity, particularly beneficial for the low B string performance and overall note definition.
The roasted maple neck features a thin C shape that offers comfortable playability across all positions, while the roasting process enhances both the visual appeal and tonal characteristics of the wood. The rosewood fingerboard with 16" radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets provides smooth playing action with crystalline quality that enriches every register without compromising clarity, enhanced by simple dot inlays for easy position identification.
The Schecter Diamond Soap Bar humbuckers at both neck and bridge positions deliver versatile tonal capabilities, from warm, vintage-style tones to modern, aggressive sounds. The straightforward control layout with 2 volume and 2 tone controls allows for intuitive sound shaping while maintaining the signal clarity essential for professional applications.
