A semihollow with a modern twist
The Warwick RB Star Bass 4 blends a classic semi-hollow aesthetic with modern hardware and an easy-to-play, medium-scale neck. Its body is crafted from AAA flamed maple, seen here in Warwick's appealingly authentic Solid Creme White High Polish finish, which gives the bass both a striking visual presence and a resonant tonal response. The laminated maple neck – stabilised with its ekanga veneer stripes – combines with the wenge fingerboard to produce a crisp, articulate tone with very balanced sustain. Outfitted with passive MEC Vintage single coils, the RB Star Bass 4 gives bassists access to a wide range of organic tones, from warm-sounding retro basslines to tight, modern grooves. Weighing in at around 3.8kg, it feels invitingly light and well-balanced – ideal for extended rehearsals and long sets on stage.
Control and character
Two passive MEC Vintage single coils give the Warwick Star Bass 4 its defined tonal core, delivering a detailed response with an organic character. A three-way toggle switch allows experienced or experimenting bassists to select neck, bridge, or blended pickup configurations, while dual volume and tone controls enable them to precisely shape their sound's dynamics and timbre. The 813mm medium-scale length, combined with the wenge fingerboard and 21 hard-wearing jumbo frets, ensures smooth playability and accurate intonation. The two-piece Warwick bridge and tailpiece construction in turn makes it easy to adjust the string action, while the Tedur Just-A-Nut III and robust Warwick machine heads help with both stable tuning and clean intonation. Security locks and a gig bag are included, so the Star Bass is stage-ready right out of the box.
For bassists with a sense of style
The Warwick RB Star Bass 4 is ideal for bassists looking to combine the unmistakable character of a semihollow instrument with the accessibility of a medium scale length fingerboard. It's a perfect match for players who want to hear those classic retro tones but are keen on some modern reliability too – indeed, for all bassists in need of a lightweight yet fully featured instrument for extended sessions and long performances. With its passive electronics, balanced ergonomic profile, and distinctive sound, it's a great option for style-conscious musicians, offering a host of characteristics that solidbody instruments just can't match – and all this in Warwick's familiar quality and at a price point that's refreshingly fair.

There's a Star Bass waiting to be heard
With its warm, resonant semihollow sound and classic pickup configuration, the Warwick RB Star Bass 4 is a fine choice for a wide range of musical applications. Whether it’s warm, stylish basslines in Jazz, Soul, and Fusion, or dynamic grooves in Pop, Indie, and singer-songwriter arrangements – the Star Bass 4 brings a distinctive voice to the mix, one that offers something quite unlike traditional solid-body basses. Its lightweight build and ergonomic handling make it a natural choice for extended studio sessions, marathon rehearsals, and long nights on stage. Whether paired with a classic tube amp or a modern Class D head, it always brings it characteristic sound to the mix, while remaining consistently transparent in tone and easy to dial in. And thanks to the included gig bag and security locks mentioned above, there's nothing standing in the way of that first performance.
In the Spotlight
Titanium-brass frets
This Warwick bass is among the many that now feature frets made from an entirely new alloy: titanium-brass. This hard-wearing material doesn't alter the classic warm sound of a Warwick fingerboard, or its precise playability. The golden colour is eye-catching, too. The titanium is primarily intended to prevent tarnishing: Basically, the frets will look good, sound good, and feel good for longer. The ball-end frets are inserted into the tonewood via Warwick’s proprietary Invisible Fretwork Technology, with the fret slots stopping just before the edge of the fingerboard, improving resonance and comfort. Style, sound, and smooth playability: Even the smallest parts of a Warwick bass reflect their entire philosophy.
