Hi there, & welcome to the forum!
Feel free to introduce yourself here: Introduce Yourself! (2023)
I’d go with the Schecter, as I already have a Yamaha. 
Both are excellent choices.
Pros
- Price - you won’t get strap locks and the hardware on the Schecter at this price range
- Both should have great playability (assuming a setup)
- The Schecter is neck through which some people like for the sound
Cons
- The tone switch on the Yamaha is not really that useful, it’s more something to play around.
- No fret dots on the Schecter can be both slightly inconvenient for a learner but maybe a way to learn the positions well - you’ll have dots at the top of the fretboard anyway.
- You need to open the electronics compartment to change batteries on this Schecter every now and then.
The best bass is the one you play! Just buy one after flipping a coin, I’d say. 
Cheers,
Antonio
