Classic Design. Hot-rodded Electronics.
To rock bassists who are looking for a fully loaded P- or J-style at a great price, Sweetwater recommends the Schecter CV-4. For slap 'n' pop funk to growly modern rock, this heavily modded 4-string brings the best of the mod shop — including low-noise humbuckers with versatile 3-way series/split/parallel mini toggles — to an undeniably classic-feeling design. The CV-4's slender satiny "C" maple neck with carbon fiber reinforcement and heavily contoured lightweight ash body are super comfortable to play from a seated or standing position. Choice hardware and appointments include an S-Tek bridge with adjustable steel saddles, a permanently lubricated Tusq XL nut, and a 6-bolt neck attachment for drift-free performance on the road.

Classic design with a twist
Nearly every bassist cuts their teeth on the classic design suggested by the Schecter CV-4. The CV-4 brings the response, feel, speed, and vibe of the timeless California design to a hot-rodded modern instrument that's perfect for today's rockers.
Maple-on-ash construction
Hard maple on lightweight ash has been a recipe for great tone since the 1950s. The Schecter CV-4 updates the classic, with a heavily sculpted ash body that hugs the torso, seated or standing, and a 6-bolt maple neck with a satin backing that feels great in the hand.
Versatile series/split/parallel humbuckers
Decades of rock glory await you in the CV-4's Diamond J-Bucker humbucking pickups and versatile electronics. A master volume, master tone, and 3-way pickup selector make it quick and painless to find great sounds in a flash. But for players who a want a deeper dive, mini toggles for each pickup allow you to split the coils for a more traditional single-coil response, or run pickups in series (rather than parallel) for a heavier hit and beefier output.
