Warwick RB Star Bass 5 MGHP

The two MEC single coils on the Warwick RB StarBass render a tonal spectrum that ranges from warm, rounded lows to colourful mids and clearly articulated highs. A three-way selector switch lets experienced musicians dial in different pickup combinations, giving every bassist the flexibility to find their own individual sound. Thanks to Warwick's passive electronics, the core tone remains uncoloured, remaining invariably direct and authentic. The wenge fingerboard, with its very flat 26" radius and 21 extra-tall nickel-silver jumbo frets, works in tandem with the 34" scale length to deliver precise intonation and smooth playability, while the two-piece Warwick bridge and tailpiece construction and Tedur nut contribute to a pleasantly low string action and reliable tuning stability. Warwick machine heads and factory-installed security locks round things off, making the instrument more than ready to handle the challenges of live musicianship.

Based in Markneukirchen, Saxony, Warwick, initially a manufacturer of premium basses, is known today for providing a wide range of music equipment in all sectors of the industry. 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. Among them are the instruments of the Framus brand, which are remarkable for their consistently high quality. In addition to its headquarters in Markneukirchen, Warwick also has locations in Nashville and Shanghai.
