The Warwick Corvette Basic 5-string Bass Guitar is beautifully made and has that characteristic low growl for which Warwicks are famous. As with all Warwick basses, it features premium tonewoods throughout: an alder body and a 3-piece maple neck with rosewood fingerboard. The 5-string bass's switchable, active MEC 2-way electronics and the MEC pickup combination complement one another. Four control knobs (volume, balance, tone, and tone) provide flexible control in the studio and on stage. The highly sensitive dynamic response of the Corvette Basic lets you articulate the most gentle of nuances or slap it for crisp, punchy basslines.

Warwick Corvette Rockbass Passive

Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: 10 years
Reviewer's Play Style: Rock/ Jazz
When I bought this bass I was very excited to be owning a Warwick. I had played a few in a few different stores. When I got the bass home it was in dyer need of setup. So far out of tune that the neck was pretty bowed. After tuning it, Setting the just a NUT III, Setting the string height, resetting the truss, resetting everything, getting the intonation right etc etc. It plays great. I was however really disappointed that it seemed to have missing notes and a muddy sounding E string. I played with the pickup height to no avail. A week went by and I was getting steamed...so I bought a set of DR Hi Beams which I play on my Ibanez bass. FINALLY, the quality of sound I was looking for. The Warwick red label strings do not do this bass justice. If you are cosidering this bass and notice what im talking about, tell the store to throw a decent set of strings on for you. Night and Day difference.

The tone adjustments are decent. Quality if pretty good, didnt like how the neck meets the body, cheaply cut in my opinion.

Easily playable. low action.
