Warwick RB Corvette Basic 8-String

The alder wood body of the eight-string Warwick RockBass Corvette B8 is paired with a bolt-on maple neck – a robust construction that gives the sound plenty of attack, while the wenge fingerboard harmonises with the body's quality tonewood to produce a midrange response that will cut through the mix with ease. True to what any bassist would expect from their modern Rock or Metal eight-string, the Corvette B8 has 24 frets underneath the four pairs of bass and treble strings, which are always played simultaneously. The high-quality chrome hardware is made in-house and includes Warwick's signature two-piece bridge and tailpiece construction, adjustable nut, and security locks. The two MEC active single coils on the Corvette B8 are perfect for authentic Rock and Metal tones, and for further fine-tuning the sound, it's equipped with active two-band electronics. What's more, it also ships with a gig bag and a hex key – for easy truss rod adjustments and safe transport, respectively.

The product range extends from bass guitars, bass amplifiers and cabinets (in all price brackets), bass strings and accessories, to effects units. In addition to this core business, the Warwick Distribution sales company offers almost everything that bass players, whether of four, six or even more string instruments, could require.
