Crafted with care, all the way to the core
Is tone in the fingers? What about the strings or the pickups? The age-old debate won’t be resolved today. However, wherever you stand, a solid foundation is critical to any tone, and Schecter’s luthiers spared no effort in outfitting the Stargazer 4 with a flexible yet focused foundation. Mahogany was chosen as this bass’s aural cornerstone, and for a good reason — its naturally balanced output is complemented by blossoming harmonics and blooming overtones, enriching every register with presence and panache alongside plenty of punch and headroom. Its maple neck and fretboard impart full-spectrum warmth to your tone, combining shimmering brightness and focused articulation that ensures leads, chords, harmonies, and more are voiced with precise definition.

US-built pickups tailored for tone crafting
Considering this bass’s boisterous palette of possibilities, Schecter pulled no punches in designing a tone-sculpting suite capable of evoking the Stargazer 4’s robust sonic array. Its pair of US-crafted Schecter USA M-25 pickups adorn the neck- and bridge-mounted positions, with Volume, Blend, and Tone controls ready to refine your sound. What’s more, each pickup features a dedicated mini-toggle. The bridge pickup allows you to navigate between series, split, and parallel operations, while the neck pickup offers a coil-tap function. Taken together, the Stargazer 4 supplies no shortage of onboard sonic shaping, seamlessly tailored to suit your style or full-on aural exploration.

Premium playability to maximize sonic exploration
Supporting this 4-string aural odyssey, the Stargazer 4 is primed for premium performance and playability, starting with its 3-piece maple neck. Building the neck in this way not only expands its harmonic complexity but also increases the neck’s dimensional stability, maximizing its resilience to warping or twisting. Complementing its smooth heel and elegant treble-side cutaway, the thin C-shape neck and 14-inch fingerboard radius provide the perfect sandbox for navigating its 22-fret array with speed, style, and comfort. With a Schecter Diamond Custom bass bridge and M-Series tuning machines bookending the strings across its 34-inch scale, the Stargazer 4 is your portal to multidimensional sound and spectrum-spanning possibilities.
