Description
Five strings, zero fuss. The C-5 Standard hands you that extra low B for drop tunings, thick synth-bass lines, or just filling out the bottom end when the mix needs it—without asking you to spend a paycheck to get there.
Schecter built the Standard Series for players who actually use their gear: bedroom sessions, band practice, backline duty, and everything in between. This isn’t a fragile showpiece—it’s a workhorse. The high-output passive pickups cover real ground tonally, from tight and articulate for pick-heavy pop and rock to growly and aggressive when you dig in for metal or funk-driven grooves. Roll off the tone and you get warm, rounded lows for sitting deep in a mix; open it up and the mids punch through for cutting through a live band.
The charcoal satin finish keeps things understated—no glossy glare under stage lights, just a matte, road-ready look that matches the bass’s job description. Playability is where Schecter’s Standard line earns its reputation: a comfortable neck profile and balanced body mean long sets don’t turn into a wrestling match, whether you’re a beginner stretching into five strings for the first time or a gigging player who needs a dependable backup that won’t let you down.
