Beschrijving

The Corvette body shape, introduced by Warwick in 1992 with the creation of the Corvette Pro Line, is without doubt the first place to start as a bass player. Equipped with MEC J/J Pickups and a 4 Knob configuration, the variety of tone and color are endless. The Maple neck is multi-laminate constructed with Ekanga veneers outlining each piece to offer superior strength and tone.

The Just-A-Nut III is an innovation introduced by Warwick in 2007 and is now the standard nut used for all series of Warwick and Rock Bass instruments. Slanted Warwick tuners now ensure precise and smooth tuning adjustment, and the 2 piece removable Warwick strap locks ensure your instrument will remain safely attached to your strap.

Perhaps the most bold, and eye-catching change to the new Rock Bass instruments is the iconic Warwick logo now placed on the headstock. With the famous W now adorning each instrument s headstock, and superb finishes that showcase superior tone woods, Rock Bass has truly defined what constitutes both value and beauty.

About Warwick’s GPS (German Pro Series) instruments:

Germany — As of this summer Warwick now offers the all new German Pro Series which consists of excellent “Teambuilt & Made in Germany” instruments, at an affordable price. The complete know-how, which the Warwick Custom Shop has built up over 30 years in Markneukirchen embodies this exciting new series of electric basses. All of these instruments are produced in Germany from the finest materials and with the best possible production methods. Only the very best machines in the world are used to carve these extraordinaire bass guitars.

The development of the Warwick German Pro Series goes back to the year 2009, at that time the decision was made to produce only the Masterbuilt Custom Shop basses at the Markneukirchen production facility, But now – due to popular demand, after almost two years of planning and development, a regional partner has been found to realize in cooperation with Warwick the new German Pro Series. The result is the highest quality Pro Series basses to date, and at a price which offers players the possibility to own a 100% genuine German built Warwick bass for far less than the Masterbuilt Custom Shop instruments.

The tone woods for the German Pro Series are naturally air dried, hand selected, and glued at Warwick in Markneukirchen, also the necks, and the complete fret work is manufactured there too. Then all instruments are finished and assembled by partner nearby in the region. After completion, all Warwick German Pro Series instruments are carefully inspected, flawlessly set up and shipped out from the Markneukirchen production facility.

The Corvette Standard Active is easly one of the most widely Warwick basses and it is also one of the first models they introduced back in the early 90’s.

The neck thru ovangkol neck is really solid and stable and it has the classic Warwick oil finish which makes it a joy to play. The tigersripe ebony fingerboard is just perfect and is also a pleasure for your fingers.

Warwick’s frets in the GPS series are made from Silver nickel, an alloy that has proved to be great in terms of sound and longevity.

Sustain in this bass seems to be endless indeed. This is also thanks to the great tailpiece/bridge combination which allows the strings to have the perfect break angle at the bridge. Of course you can adjust the bridge in all directions: overall and individual height, intonation, string spacing, etc.

Small details such as pickup height adjustment have been redisgned and improved using metal inserts for the screws in the body of the bass meaning you can set the correct pickup height effortlessly. Cool.

Of course there’s a two way truss rod so you can tweak the neck yo suit your climate and/or playing style. The truss rod can be accessed easily.

Also electronics are easily serviced. No tool is needed to access the battery which by the way is found inside an ultra clean electronics area. Just use your fingernails fo open the rear electronics plate. Cool. Conductive paint is used thoughout and just the right amount of wire and top notch parts. We love it.

Warwick’s trademark headstock is also ergonomic. All tuners are placed for the player to reach them easily. The adjustable nut (a classic feature from Warwick) is the final touch on a perfectly designed bass.

German made MEC electronics are used. The term here would be ultra quiet and effective. You get a 2 band preamp with controls for Volume, Balance, Bass and Treble. Of course you also get Passive mode by pulling the Volume pot.

Two active MEC pickups in JJ arrangement are used and they produce just some of the best bass tones you’ll ever need. The neck pickup is deep (but clear), the bridge pickup is really focused (but not thin) so you get two of the most used bass tones ever. Just blend both and you’ll get an all round modern tone that will work just fine in most situations regardless of your playing style.

This instrument comes with a Premium Line RockBag gigbag plus all the tools you need to set up the bass as well as straplocks.
