Beautifully balanced tone
Never compromise your tone again. This is a bass that will make everything you play sound wonderful, no matter the pitch. Schecter have delicately selected the perfect mix of tonewoods in constructing the J-4 to give superb, all-encompassing bass tone.
Experience fantastic depth and range. The J-4's alder body is fantastic at communicating your low-end notes with fullness. It's this that will make your driving basslines sound gigantic. The maple used for the bass' neck is incredibly responsive at all frequencies, meaning even your high notes will sound sharp, clear, and precise. A rosewood fingerboard will add even more crispness to your playing. This is tonal perfection.
Immense electric sound
Your biggest bass sound ever. The Schecter J-4 is equipped with a duo of MonsterTone-J pickups to give you powerful, all-conquering tones. They perform extremely well at even the highest outputs, delivering everything you play with industry-leading clarity. Each pickup is fitted with a Ceramic 8 magnet, eliminating noise interference and communicating your music with accuracy. Pure, untainted sound.
Comfortable playing experience
Let hand cramp become a thing of the past. The J-4 will feel natural and comfortable in your hands. That's because Schecter have given the guitar's neck a thin "C"-shaped profile. This shape fits perfectly to the contours of your hand, ensuring you never have to strain to hit notes. You'll benefit from supreme playability at every point up and down the bass' scale.
Always stay pitch perfect
Staying in tune. It's vital to deliver a truly brilliant performance, whether you're on the stage or in the studio. This is a bass guitar that will always help you to do that. That's because the J-4 is fitted with a tough Graph Tech XL Ivory Tusq nut. This extremely strong string nut will help to lock your strings in tune for longer, removing the need for irritating re-tuning, and giving you magnificent precision in your music.
No restraints
Play all the way to the very top of the fretboard. A cutaway body design gives you unencumbered access to the highest frets, without having to stretch your hand over a bulky neck joint. This means that when you're playing, you can focus entirely on unleashing electrifying sound upon your audience, without the worry of finding it difficult to hit notes at the high end. This is a bass that gives you complete creative freedom.
Top quality strings
A gigantic amount of how a guitar sounds is down to the calibre of the strings used. The Schecter J-4 is fitted with Ernie Ball Super Long strings. Ernie Ball are renowned in the music industry for manufacturing strings that produce the very best tone. It's this reputation that has led some of the greatest musicians in the history of time to adopt Ernie Ball strings for their guitars. Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, Paul McCartney, and a seemingly never-ending list of music legends are all fans. You will be, too.
