Schecter Stiletto Elite 5 Customer Review

Sound: The wood is nice and resonant...yeah, I know, Warwick is the "wood" bass...try this one anyway. The controls are versatile enough to get it to sound just about any way you want. I can get the "Pete Way Thunderbird" sound, then twiddle the eq knobs and get that Warwick sex-growl or even the old Ric "bwoom" thump-twang. I use it with a Hartke 3500 Head and VX 215 cab for all occasions - no pedals or signal altering crap other than an old Sonic Maximizer. You can keep your fancy rack for aesthetic purposes, but you won't really need to plug anything in. No reason to spend more money on a lesser instrument... Feature: I like the big strap buttons - no real need for strap locks. The tuners work well, and are just touchy enough to not make you angry while dialing in an intonation reset. Pickups are great. Fretboard is nice and skinny, the fretwork is very well done, the top position markers are easily seen, and the thru-neck is butter the whole way to fret 24. Gold work sucks...plain and simple. Not this guitar's fault...all gold work sucks. It wears off and looks like crap. I also wish Schecter would put an active/passive switch on it. (Im nitpicking now) Ease of Use: See above. Quality: After over a year of owning this and carting around an extra bass to gigs, I got rid of my extra. I literally own one 5 string now - and I don't need another. Value: Buy it. Period. Manufacturer Support: I'll say 10 but never had to use them. The Wow Factor: Feels great. Top horn not intrusive and lines up well with fret 12. Looks great...though not very "metal" when playing around guys with Jackson V's and Explorers. Oh well, I still look and sound better than the Fender guys!

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Best Non-American made Bass I have ever played."

Sound: The bass has a very nice overall tone...think Warwick meets Carvin. Very wood-like. It is also very diverse due to the EMG Pickups. You can dial in just about anything. Feature: Great hardware, very nice bridge (definitely an upgrade in both departments from the older stilettos). Binding is a nice addition and the neck thru is like butter. Ease of Use: Probably the most comfortable bass I own. I own a few and this just has the best feel overall. Quality: As mentioned before, the older Stiletto series had some crappy hardware and this is a much better upgrade. The finish is amazing. Pickups are a good match for this bass and the fretboard is smooth as can be. Very fast and the action was pretty low which scared me at first but I grew into it and now I wouldn't have it any other way. Value: In closing, this is well worth the $800 price tag. I own a '96 American P, A 4002 Ric and an '84 Peavey Fury and this is a great addition. It is probably the only "Modern" style bass I will ever use. Manufacturer Support: Never had to deal with them, so I wouldn't know The Wow Factor: It is drop dead gorgeous........... Overall: I plan on using this for a very long time. My main bass is the 4003 Ric but I use this together with that at shows.

Style of Music: Rock, Progressive, Experimental
