Schecter Introduces Stiletto Stage Basses

Schecter introduced the Stiletto Stage four- and five-string models at the Winter NAMM Show. The basses are designed to be a stripped-down, performance-ready bass at an affordable price point.

Available in white and black gloss finishes, the neck-through basses are built with a mahogany body, a carbon-fiber reinforced maple neck, and ebony fretboard. The frets are marked with mother of pearl offset dots, while the side dot markers glow in the dark. Schecter fits them with a pair of their Diamond SuperRock MM pickups matched to a 3-band EQ. Other features include Grover tuners, a Schecter custom bass string-thru bridge, and a Graph Tech XL black Tusq nut.

The Schecter Stiletto Stage basses are shipping now with prices ranging from $699 to $749.
