Warwick RockBass Corvette $$ 5-String - Solid White (COMING SOON)
The Warwick Corvette $$ (Double Buck) is known for its huge tonal versatility, thanks to its dual humbucker pickups and coil-tapping switches. This allows you to toggle between series, parallel, and single-coil modes, giving you access to a wide variety of tones—from fat, punchy lows to clear, articulate highs. The active 2-band EQ enhances the bass and treble frequencies, allowing you to fine-tune your sound for any genre or playing style.
Playability:
The 5-string configuration, with its slightly narrower string spacing, offers comfortable playability, especially for players who like fast runs and intricate basslines. The wenge fingerboard adds a touch of warmth to the sound and provides a smooth playing surface.
The Warwick RockBass Corvette $$ is a great choice for bassists looking for tonal versatility and modern features in a high-performance instrument.
