A six-string bass with active EQ for precise tonal control.
The Schecter SC-6 six-string bass redefines what a modern bass can achieve, combining meticulous craftsmanship with advanced sonic capabilities. Built for players who demand precision across an extended range, this bass features a nyatoh body with a stunning flamed maple top in a natural satin finish. Its 35" scale length ensures tight, thunderous lows on the B string while maintaining clarity for high-register soloing on the C string. Outfitted with Schecter Diamond 6ST active pickups and an 18V-powered 3-band EQ, the SC-6 offers incredible tonal flexibility and the ability to cut through dense mixes with ease. Whether you're locking down the groove or exploring intricate melodies, this instrument delivers with consistency and style. The SC-6 offers the perfect balance of modern design and technical sophistication, ideal for today's bassists pushing the boundaries of performance.
Schecter Diamond 6ST Active Pickups With 3-Band EQ for Precision Tone Shaping
The SC-6 is equipped with Schecter Diamond 6ST active pickups, designed to deliver a wide dynamic range and clarity across all six strings. Paired with the 18V-powered 3-band EQ, they allow you to sculpt your tone with precision—boosting lows for a commanding presence, dialing in punchy mids for mix-cutting definition or adding articulate highs for expressive soloing. The onboard controls include master volume and a blend knob, allowing seamless transitions between pickups for tonal variety. This advanced electronics configuration ensures the SC-6 can adapt to any tonal demand, providing a focused, articulate sound for both live and studio applications.
Nyatoh Body With Flamed Maple Top for Resonance and Style
The SC-6 features a nyatoh body—a tonewood prized for its balanced tonal response and natural warmth. Topped with a flamed maple veneer, this bass delivers both visual impact and enhanced sonic articulation. Sculpted body contours further elevate the playing experience, offering unmatched comfort during long performances or studio sessions. The combination of these premium materials creates a rich, resonant foundation that supports everything from deep, growling lows to crystal-clear highs. This thoughtful design ensures that the SC-6 is not only sonically versatile but also visually striking and comfortable to play.
Compound Radius Fretboard for Fluid Playability
The rosewood fretboard on this 6-string bass features a 14"–16" compound radius, making it exceptionally versatile for technical playing. The flatter radius toward the upper frets facilitates effortless soloing and fast runs, while the slightly rounder radius near the nut ensures a comfortable grip for low-end riffing. Coupled with 24 X-jumbo frets and a dual-action truss rod, this neck design supports precise intonation and smooth playability across the entire range. Whether you're navigating complex arrangements or exploring melodic passages, the SC-6's neck construction keeps your playing fluid and accurate.
Pro-Grade Schecter Construction for Reliable Tuning Stability
Built for reliability, the SC-6 is equipped with a Schecter Diamond custom bass bridge, which enhances sustain and provides solid string anchoring for consistent tone. The Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut reduces friction at the headstock, ensuring smooth tuning adjustments and eliminating string binding. Schecter bass tuners offer precision tuning, even under heavy playing conditions. This robust hardware setup ensures the bass remains stable and dependable, whether you're on stage or in the studio. The SC-6 is designed to meet the demands of professional players who require unwavering performance.
