The Schecter C-5 Standard in Charcoal Satin is a 5-string electric bass designed for players who demand versatility, comfort, and reliability at an accessible price. Built with a mahogany body topped with ash, this bass delivers a rich, resonant tone with plenty of low-end punch. Its roasted maple neck and rosewood fingerboard provide smooth playability and long-term stability, while the Thin “C” profile and 16” radius make fast runs and complex grooves effortless.
Featuring a 35” scale length and 24 jumbo frets, the C-5 Standard offers extended range and tight string tension for articulate lows. Equipped with Schecter Diamond Standard soapbar pickups and passive electronics, it delivers a wide tonal palette—from deep, warm lows to crisp highs—controlled via independent volume and tone knobs for each pickup. Black hardware, Schecter Diamond bass bridge, and a graphite nut ensure tuning stability and durability. Available in stunning finishes like this Charcoal Satin or Tobacco Burl, this bass combines modern aesthetics with professional-grade performance for any genre.
