Full Description

Maple Body and Neck

Warwick’s Starbass features a semi-hollow Maple body that produces a full tone with a fat, warm low end. The bass’s Maple body provides bright tones that are tight and precise, with warm lows, crisp high, and exceptional clarity. The Rockbass’s Maple neck produces a punchy tone with bright characteristics and provides firm lows, sizzling highs, and a snappy midrange attack. The Ebony Fingerboard makes the Warwick’s tone warm and bright, providing a bright, crisp attack and plenty of definition. The fingerboard also provides snappy, sizzling highs, solid heavy lows, and a smooth sustain.

Vintage MEC Single Coil Pickups

The Rockbass Starbass has a set of Vintage MEC single coil pickups that are made with alnico magnets to produce big, rich tones that are round and versatile. The neck pickup has a big, warm tone that’s thick and smooth with a good response. The bridge pickup has a more mellow tone than the neck pickup, and offers sharp, pointy tones.
