Let us introduce you to the Schecter Corsair Semi-Hollow Bass Guitar in Gloss Black.

Schecter boasts a huge bass guitar lineup — comprising modern tone machines, vintage-inspired hollowbodies and everything in between. The Corsair is an elegant semi-hollow bass that blends old-school looks with modern electronics and a classic construction.

Key features include a pair of active EMG TBHZ pickups, a 2-band active EQ circuit, carbon fiber-reinforced Maple neck, Ebony fingerboard, Graph Tech XL Black Tusq nut, a set of WSC KG700 Lightweight Vintage tuners and a sustain-enhancing set-neck construction.

Semi-Hollow Body

The Schecter Corsair bass boasts a gorgeous semi-hollow body that harks back to traditional '50s and '60s instruments. Giving the model a warm, resonant sound with plenty of natural projection; the Maple tonewood from which the body is made from adds plenty of top-end crispness too — for a balanced voice overall.

Reinforced 3-Piece Maple Neck

A 3-piece Maple neck offers incredible strength and rigidity, reinforced with carbon fiber rods to prevent any possibility of warping when the instrument is exposed to varying climates. This design means that the Corsair promises rock-solid tuning stability, with a thin 'C' neck profile and 'Narrow X-Jumbo' frets giving performance-conscious musicians a contemporary feel.

EMG TBHZ Pickups

For bass players who want authentic passive touch sensitivity and feel, EMG's TBHZ pickups deliver — offering legendary quality, reliability and tone. With two ceramic and steel bars, these humbuckers give the bass a full, deep sound with plenty of punch and output.

Bass Guitars

Electric bass guitars provide the low-end foundation that supports rhythm, harmony, and groove within a band. Designed for clarity, punch, and control, they translate string vibration into a focused, amplified signal that locks in with drums and drives the music forward. Different scale lengths, pickup configurations, and electronics influence feel and tone, from deep, rounded lows to tight, articulate attack. Whether used for simple supportive lines or more expressive playing, electric bass guitars are essential for shaping the feel and energy of a track.
