Description

Schecter built the Stiletto Studio-8 LH as an eight-string bass positioned within the upper tier of the Stiletto Studio series, configured specifically for left-handed players. It employed neck-through construction with Ultra Access and carried a Bubinga top over a Mahogany body, with a multi-ply Maple/Walnut neck running the full length of the instrument.

The bass featured a 34-inch scale across a 24-fret Rosewood fingerboard with a 16-inch radius and X-Jumbo frets, shaped to a Thin 'C' profile. A Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut sat at 1.574 inches wide, and a 2-way adjustable truss rod provided neck relief control via a 5/32-inch Allen nut. Abalone Offset Dot inlays marked the board. Electronics consisted of a pair of EMG 35HZ pickups running through an 18-volt active circuit governed by a 3-Band EMG Active EQ, with controls for Master Volume, Blend, and the equaliser. The Diamond Custom Bass bridge, Schecter tuners, and Metal Knurled knobs with set screws were finished throughout in Satin Gold. Ernie Ball 8 String Super Long strings were fitted at the factory. The Stiletto Studio-8 LH shipped without a case; a separate SGR-Universal Bass case was available as an accessory.

Owners sourcing replacement parts — including the Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, EMG 35-series pickups, or Diamond Custom Bass bridge components — should consult the respective manufacturers' current catalogues for compatibility, and bring any setup or intonation work to a qualified bass guitar technician familiar with extended-range instruments.

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.

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.

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.
