Manufacturer's Description for RockBass by Warwick Corvette Classic 4-String Electric Bass (Almond Burst)

The familiar "almond burst" glossy finish encompasses a 2-piece Alder body topped with an attractive, AAA flamed Maple veneer. The RockBass Corvette Classic is guaranteed to appeal to the eyes as well as the ears.

A Rosewood fingerboard sits atop a hard, maple neck that securely locks into place with 4 bolts, each with separate bushings. MEC Gold pickups (active J/J) tap into the flexibility of the 2-band active electronics, unleashing incredible lows and dynamic highs. Able to respond to the lightest touch and the heaviest slap techniques, the RockBass Corvette Classic bass delivers well-defined tones and can adapt to any music style.

About Warwick
Over the past few years, Warwick's popularity has grown to amazing new heights, and we now have players from all styles of music using our gear. As bands like Limp Bizkit, Slipknot, POD and Incubus achieved greater success and visibility, younger players began contacting us asking how they could get a Warwick bass. Unfortunately, most beginning bassists could not afford to buy a new Warwick. As an answer to this overwhelming demand, Warwick announces the new RockBass line of bass guitars!

This announcement comes after many years of hard work and preparation. Warwick wanted to make sure that any entry-level basses they produce live up to the high standards that Warwick players expect. Hans Peter Wilfer, the President and founder of Warwick, visited factories in several countries and had his best craftsmen analyze all the samples until they were able to unanimously agree on who would make these special instruments for them. The winner was found in China. There a Taiwanese father and son team runs their factory in the same philosophical style that Hans Peter and his father (Framus founder Fred Wilfer) ran their businesses. The fit between companies, like a good neck pocket, was perfect. Then Warwick invested over half a million dollars to establish a Far Eastern headquarters in Shanghai to properly manage and develop their new business relationships with China. Hans Peter could not be more proud of the new RockBass line and he is excited the Warwick sound will now be available to all players, everywhere. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Warwick products.

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "ROCKBASS CLASSIC"

Sound: WOW. this is a damn good bass. first let me tell you a bit about where im coming from to make that statement. ive been playing for a year and a half with ibanez starter pack. got better, got a band, got to get a better bass. i decided this baby since i heard so much ruckus over warwicks sound. theyre right. amazing tone with a nasty bite. ive heard a few high scale basses and this fits right in there. get this to shatter your windows while having awesome tone. Feature: The features it has are treble cut, bass cut, blend, volume. blend is very well done in this bass, a nice addition indeed. i said 8/10 since the variety of sounds is a bit limited. nevertheless, its a nice bass with good features. Quality: awesome quality. the body's finish and wood structure, bolts, pickups, everything is solid and smooth, created with utmost care. Value: for the price, this baby is worth it. the sound is unbelievable and for me, it beats the ibanez basses that are priced even 100 dollars higher than this warwick. with the MEC gold jazz pick ups [dont let it fool you its got a hell of a bite] this bass is your bass. The Wow Factor: oooh sexy, sexy. Overall: solid bass with all youll need. active pickups and great electronics will enhance your playing. get this for your next bass, it will not let you down. even the sunburst [which i normally dont like] managed to impress me. WARWICK is now my weapon of choice.

"Great Bass"

Sound: Full solid tone - easy to get the sound you want by blending between pickups and using the active eq. Best tone I've played (had/have Fender Precision, Ibanez, Westone, Hohner in the past) Quality: Solidly made - I've had it for a year now, and absolutely no trouble with it. Value: Very Good instrument for the price. Buy one! Manufacturer Support: I haven't had a problem, so it's hard to say. The Wow Factor: I wanted it - I got it! Overall: I don;t tend to change gear very often, and with the Rockbass I can;t see me changing ever

Style of Music: Mostly Rock, some pop/jazz crossover
