The RockBass range is revamped for 2024 with a clear idea: to offer instruments inspired by classic Warwick models, retaining the attributes that built the reputation of the German brand. The Corvette Basic 5 features the expected ergonomics and sonic identity of a Corvette, with a modern and efficient configuration designed for both stage and studio.
This 5-string electric bass is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced bassists who want a responsive 5-string without struggling in the mix. Thanks to the active electronics and two Jazz Bass-style pickups, it easily covers rock, funk, pop, modern metal, and gospel/RnB contexts where the B string is essential.
The alder body provides a natural balance: present lows, solid mids, and clear highs, perfect for staying audible in a band. The bolt-on neck (3-piece with maple and ekanga) promotes attack and precision, while the wenge fingerboard enhances definition and "bite" in the mids. On the amplification side, the two active MEC "Dynamic Correction" J pickups deliver an articulate tone, ideal for fingerstyle, pick, or slap playing. With the Volume, Balance, Treble, and Bass controls, you quickly shape your place in the mix: roundness for deep lines, clarity for fast passages, and brightness for percussive attacks. The Warwick 2-piece bridge contributes to a firm response and good stability, particularly appreciated on 5-string basses.
To maintain the original feel, choose a set of Warwick Red Strings 5-string .045-.135 when replacing strings. The bass comes with a Student Line RockBag RB 20515 B/PLUS gig bag, practical for transport and rehearsals.
