Get your bass-playing journey off to a powerful start with the Warwick RockBass Corvette Basic 5-String Bass Guitar in Natural Transparent Satin. Blending signature Warwick craftsmanship with modern features, this 5-string beast offers thunderous tone, supreme playability, and stunning aesthetics—all designed to grow with you from the practice room to the main stage.

Crafted from a solid alder body, the Corvette Basic 5 delivers a naturally balanced tone—tight, bright, and ready to cut through any mix. The body is paired with a smooth maple neck and a dark wenge fingerboard, providing a fast, comfortable playing surface that's perfect for extended sessions. The comfortable “C”-shaped neck and 26-inch fingerboard radius add a familiar feel, whether you're grooving, slapping, or soloing.

Fueling its tonal versatility are MEC Active J-style pickups at the neck and bridge. These pickups deliver the clarity, growl, and responsiveness that Warwick is famous for. With active 2-band EQ (bass and treble), balance control, and volume knob, you’ll have all the tonal sculpting tools you need right at your fingertips.

Whether you're playing funk, rock, jazz, or metal, the RockBass Corvette Basic 5 has the tone and playability to deliver. Top it off with Warwick’s 2-piece bridge, quick access electronics compartment, and stunning natural satin finish, and you’ve got a pro-level bass that’s as practical as it is powerful.
