Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Six-string mahogany-body Schecter with a walnut neck and active pickups. Built for extended-range players who work above and below standard bass range.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Prog and metal players using both low B and high C
- Chordal and solo bass work that needs the extra top strings
- Players who already know a five-string and want more range
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Beginners — the neck width is a serious reach
- Players wanting classic passive vintage bass tone
- Small-handed players who struggle with wide string spacing
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Mahogany body
Dense and warm-leaning, adding weight and low-mid body under the brighter active electronics.
Detail 03
Walnut neck
Stiff and dense, which helps a long six-string neck stay stable and keeps notes defined.
Detail 04
Rosewood fingerboard
Softer feel underhand than a coated maple board, with a slightly rounder attack.
Detail 05
Active pickups
High output with onboard EQ. Clear highs across six strings, but battery-dependent.
Detail 06
Tune-O-Matic bridge
Individual saddle adjustment for intonation, which matters more as string count and gauge spread grow.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is a six-string bass hard to play after a four?
The jump is mostly neck width and muting. Right-hand muting across six strings takes the most adjustment. Expect a few weeks before it feels normal.
02What tuning does it use?
Standard six-string bass tuning runs B-E-A-D-G-C, adding a low B below a four-string and a high C above the G.
03Does the mahogany body make it heavy?
Mahogany is dense, and a six-string body carries more hardware and a wider neck. Expect real weight on a strap; use a wide padded strap for long sets.
04Will it work if the battery dies?
No. Active electronics need the battery to pass signal. Unplug the cable when you store it, since a plugged-in cable drains the battery.
