Schecter positioned the Stiletto Custom-6 as a dedicated six-string electric bass within the Stiletto Custom series. The instrument was built in Indonesia and carried a bolt-on neck construction secured by six bolts, placing it in the working professional tier of Schecter's bass catalogue.
The body was mahogany with a flamed maple and walnut top, finished in Natural Satin. The multi-ply maple and walnut neck ran a 35-inch scale — 889mm — and was fitted with dual two-way adjustable truss rods accessed via a 5/32-inch Allen nut. The rosewood fretboard carried 24 X-jumbo frets at a 16-inch radius, with pearloid offset dot inlays and a 54mm Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut. Neck thickness measured .787 inches at the first fret and .866 inches at the twelfth. Hardware throughout was satin gold. Electronics comprised a pair of EMG 40HZ humbuckers wired to a master volume, a blend control, and a two-band EMG active EQ, powered by a 9-volt clip-in battery. The S-Tek bridge and Schecter tuners completed the hardware complement. Strings fitted were Ernie Ball 6-String Super Long gauged .032–.130.
Owners sourcing replacement parts — particularly Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nuts, EMG 40-series pickups, or S-Tek bridge components — should verify measurements against the figures above before ordering, and consult a qualified bass technician for setup or truss rod adjustments on the dual-rod system.
STRAIGHT TALK
What Stands Out
Keep In Mind
From the people who own them
Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.
Owner photos
Put yours on the record.
The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.
What do you know about this one?
Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
