Schecter Daniel Firth Hellraiser Extreme-5 Signature Bass – Cthulhu Burst Satin

The Schecter Daniel Firth Hellraiser Extreme-5 is a high-performance 5-string powerhouse designed in collaboration with Cradle of Filth's legendary bassist. Built for extreme sustain and aggressive riffing, this bass features a resonant Mahogany body paired with a stunning Quilted Maple top in the haunting Cthulhu Burst Satin finish. The set-through neck construction, reinforced with carbon fiber rods, ensures that this instrument remains rock-solid under the heaviest playing conditions, making it an essential tool for the modern metal bassist.

Angkor Music Expert Analysis

The standout feature of the Daniel Firth Signature is the inclusion of Fishman Fluence Bass Soapbar pickups. Unlike traditional wire-wound pickups, these offer three distinct, multi-voice textures (Classic, Funk, and Modern) via a 3-way toggle. When you combine this with the 35" extra-long scale length, the low B string maintains incredible tension and note definition even in drop tunings. The neck-thru design with "Ultra Access" allows for effortless playability right up to the 24th X-Jumbo fret, providing the range and ergonomics required for technical extreme metal.

Recommended Protection

To safeguard this professional-grade instrument, we recommend the Schecter SGR-6B Hardcase (sold separately). Designed specifically for the C-shape body, it provides maximum impact resistance for touring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the three "voices" on the Fishman Fluence pickups?
The toggle switch allows you to cycle through 1: Classic (passive vintage feel), 2: Funk (scooped, punchy mids), and 3: Modern (full frequency response with extreme clarity), making it one of the most versatile basses on the market.

Why is the 35" scale length important for a 5-string?
Most standard basses are 34". The extra inch in the 35" scale increases string tension, which is vital for a 5-string bass to keep the low B string tight and responsive rather than loose or "floppy."

What is the benefit of Carbon Fiber reinforcement rods?
Wood can shift due to temperature and humidity changes. The internal carbon fiber rods provide a rigid skeleton for the neck, preventing warping and ensuring your setup remains consistent through seasonal changes or international travel.
