The Essentials to Know About the RockBass Vampyre 4 ? Solid Black

  • Iconic Custom Shop-inspired design: aggressive ?Vampyre? lines and chrome hardware for immediate stage presence.
  • Power and precision: pair of active MEC J (neck) + MEC TJ (bridge) pickups with 2-band active EQ.
  • Modern comfort: bolt-on maple neck with ekanga reinforcement, wenge fingerboard with 24 frets, and long 35" scale length for firm tension and well-defined low end.
  • Warwick reliability: ultra-adjustable 2-piece bridge, Just-A-Nut III nut, and standard ?Security Locks?.

A RockBass with Custom Shop Character

Part of the RockBass range, this 4-string Vampyre takes the aesthetics and spirit of Warwick?s Custom Shop model but in a more accessible version. Its alder body and proprietary hardware make it a bass ready for both stage and studio, while retaining the sonic and ergonomic identity that has built the brand?s reputation.

For Which Musicians and Styles?

With its sharp look and active electronics, the Vampyre 4 is aimed at intermediate to advanced bassists playing rock, metal, punk, hard rock, as well as modern styles requiring definition and dynamics. The 24-fret playability and long scale facilitate chordal playing, aggressive slap, and tighter tunings.

The Sound

The MEC J (neck) and MEC Twin Jazz (bridge) pickup pair delivers a wide spectrum: solid and precise lows, biting mids, and bright highs for presence in the mix. The RockBass active EQ (Volume, Balance, Bass, Treble) allows quick adjustment of the low end for warmth or accentuating attack to cut through a wall of guitars. The alder body provides natural balance, the wenge fingerboard enhances attack and clarity, while the Warwick 2-piece bridge and Just-A-Nut III nut optimize sustain, intonation, and fine tuning. The 35" scale length increases string tension for clear and articulated lows.

Recommended Compatible Accessories
