Schecter's Model-T Session bass is an example of Schecter's dedication to the playing experience. From the carefully-selected woods to a proprietary build styleto phenomenal componentry, this instrument will remind you why you picked up a bass in the first place. Construction & Build For this guitar body the builders at Schecter opted for swamp ash. This tonewood is deeply resonant and provides a rich, full tone, especially on the low end of the scale. The neck is maple with carbon fiber reinforcements, making for a super-stiff overall build that mitigates dead spots and allows for clear tonality up and down the fretboard. Components & Hardware One area where Schecter does incredibly well is in their stock setups. It doesn't matter whether you order an instrument directly from them, buy it from a large retailer, or pick it up at the little shop on Main Street--you're going to get the quality components Schecter intended. On this bass, you'll find EMG's J and P pickups, on-body controls for volume & tone, a 2-band EMG active EQ, a battery compartment for the 18V-powered active internals, and Schecter's own Custom Bass bridge and precision tuners.
