Simon Gallup's Stunning Signature Schecter!
Sweetwater says it's time to cure your desire for a superb low-end companion with the Simon Gallup Ultra Signature gass guitar! Designed by Schecter and the Cure's Simon Gallup, this bass sounds as wickedly cool as it looks. It starts with a mahogany body joined with a maple/walnut multiply neck that runs right through the body. Its offset body design caters to unfettered fret access, and its comfortable curves won't inhibit high-energy moments onstage. A rosewood fingerboard caps the neck, offering an optimal plane for engrossing grooves and basslines. A set of EMG Thunderbird humbuckers steal the sonic show with tones rich, punchy, and brimming with output. Simon Gallup rocks with the Schecter Ultra, now's your chance to kick it with this cool bass, too!
Step into the forest of enchanting low end
The Simon Gallup Ultra Signature starts strong with the bold low frequencies of its mahogany body. Here, you’ll find this tonewood echoed through the pickups’ voice with a warm, full tone that treats your low frequencies like royalty. Schecter added a maple/walnut multi-ply neck featuring a neck-thru design with ultra access to strengthen the bass’s construction and ensure maximum vibrational transfer between the neck and body. Then, a rosewood fingerboard joins the fray with 22 medium frets, providing the optimum surface for fretting out sick grooves and melodic madness. Lastly, you can rest assured of exceptional intonation thanks to the combined efforts of the Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut and the Schecter bass Tune-o-matic with a stopbar tailpiece. A gorgeous chrome finish accentuates the hardware, and a lion graphic adorns the striking finish, culminating in a bass guitar ready to dominate the stage.
Hot hot hot pickups!!!
It’s no secret that Gallup is fond of his Thunderbirds; in fact, a pair of Thunderbird EMG pickups sit within the body of this bass. These pickups dial their player into full, rich sound with plenty of punch and output. Their two ceramic and steel bars join forces to create that authentic passive touch sensitivity and feel.
