Electric Bass
With the Warwick RockBass Corvette Basic Short Scale 4-string Solid Black High Polish electric bass, every detail exudes precision. Its 30.75" pitch reduces string tension, making the instrument more supple and expressive. The alder body, carbon-reinforced maple neck and wenge fingerboard make up a robust whole. MEC J/J active pickups combined with 2-band EQ open the door to a wide acoustic palette.

Presentation
The Warwick RockBass Corvette Basic Short Scale 4-string Solid Black High Polish is for those looking for a smaller instrument without compromising on depth of sound. Its 30.75" pitch changes the way it feels under the fingers: less tension, more comfort, and above all a different approach to building bass lines.
The solid alder chosen for the body ensures a clear, consistent response, while the laminated maple screw neck, supported by two carbon rods, stabilises the whole, even in demanding conditions. The dense, responsive wenge fingerboard delivers an incisive attack, giving the grooves an instantly recognisable character.
The 24 jumbo frets, processed using Invisible Fret Technology, create a smooth surface that promotes velocity. The Warwick 3D bridge and Just-A-Nut III saddle allow you to adjust the action and spacing of the strings as you wish, opening up a level of customisation rarely offered in this range.
The electronics, by MEC, combine two active J/J pickups and an active 2-band preamp. The result is an ability to navigate between thick lows and biting highs, without losing clarity. This acoustic versatility makes it just as useful in the home studio as it is live.
With its chrome Warwick tuning machines, low weight of 3.5 kg and integrated Security Locks, this Corvette Short Scale is an instrument built to last. The included RockBag Student Line Plus makes travelling a breeze. A clear choice for those who see their bass as a natural extension of their creativity!
