Essential Information About the Warwick RockBass 5-String Medium Scale Electric Bass "Solid Black"



  • Comfort and Quick Handling: medium scale 32" / 812.8 mm scale length and bolt-on neck, ideal for gaining ease on a 5-string.

  • Modern Versatility: two active MEC "Dynamic Correction" J pickups and RockBass active electronics with 2-band EQ (Bass, Treble).

  • Definition and Attack: tiger ebony fingerboard for precise response, highly appreciated for both fingerstyle and pick playing.

  • Ready to Play: comes with a Student Line RockBag RB 20515 B/PLUS gig bag and strung with Warwick Red Strings .045-.135.



A RockBass Designed for Efficiency: The Warwick DNA, the "Plug and Play" Approach


With the RockBass series, Warwick offers an approach focused on reliability and functionality: stable luthiery, in-house hardware, and active electronics designed to quickly achieve a usable sound for rehearsals, studio, or live. This 5-string with medium scale length stands out with more accessible ergonomics while maintaining a true Warwick sonic identity.



For Which Bassists and Styles?


This bass is particularly aimed at beginner to intermediate bassists who want to move to 5 strings without struggling with a too-long neck, as well as experienced musicians seeking an efficient and lightweight instrument. Thanks to its two J-type pickups and 2-band preamp, it easily covers pop, rock, funk, gospel, and contemporary music, with good B string stability and quick adjustments to fit the mix.



Sound


The combination of an alder body (balanced with present low-mids) and a tiger ebony fingerboard (sharp attack, precision) delivers a clear and dynamic sound. The two active MEC "Dynamic Correction" J pickups provide a modern tone, with clear definition and even response across the spectrum. The RockBass active electronics (Volume, Balance, Bass, Treble) allow shifting from a round, deep sound to a more punchy and articulated register, useful for standing out in a dense band mix. The 32" / 812.8 mm scale length promotes a flexible feel under the fingers while maintaining good presence, especially for fingerstyle playing.



Recommended Compatible Accessories


If you want to keep the original feel, a 5-string .045-.135 string set is the safest choice to maintain the instrument's balance and response (standard tuning, tension, attack). The included RockBag gig bag already ensures suitable daily transport.
