...or go even further if you're feeling adventurous. The C-5 Silver Mountain is loaded with two Fishman Fishman Soapbar pickups for unbelievable articulation and power. But what makes this bass a premium instrument is the innovation that runs through its electronics. Sculpt the highs and lows of your sound with the 2-band EQ and create a tone that is unmistakeably you. A 3-way toggle switch then allows you to choose the genre you want for your bass, whether it's classic, funk, or modern.
The benefits of mahogany are endless. Luckily, the C-5 Silver Mountain boasts it for both the body and neck. Mahogany is wonderfully sturdy, giving you the freedom to play as aggressively as you like, for as long as you like. It won't tire, in fact, it will only get tighter and more tonally exquisite with age. So you have years of exhilarating gigs to look forward to. Its warm and resonant tone is produced by an emphasis on midrange frequencies, offering a gloriously balanced sound whilst its sublime, punchy tonal qualities make it perfect for a range of genres. The double cutaway design then provides easy access to the higher frets, and it looks simply stunning too. Such a striking finish begs to be matched with your crazy, skilful playing.
Mounted onto the robust mahogany neck is an exquisite ebony fretboard that brings a whole host of practical and sonic qualities. Slide across the frets with ease, ebony's naturally high oil content gives it a beautiful, smooth finish and its durability means you can be sure it won't wear away from excessive riffing. Underneath your fingertips you will have a tonewood that is highly responsive, giving you a bright and crisp attack, perfect for glorious articulation. Such a snappy tone is balanced out by a set neck which delivers amazing sustain. For a full, powerful tone that promises to make the ground shake and walls tremble, the Schecter C-5 Silver Mountain is a sublime choice.
