Gear Watch: Warwick’s Adam Clayton Reverso Signature Bass
Adam Clayton has teamed up with the Marcus Spangler and the makers at Warwick to create a bold new bass: the Adam Clayton Reverso Signature Bass. With a unique body design and high quality features, this bass is sure to turn heads.
The body, which is a Warwick Stryker reversed, is made of Khaya Mahogany with a 5A quilted maple top and headstock, and features a tiger stripe ebony fingerboard with red LEDs on the edge for orientation on dark stages. The bass’s electronics include an active MEC P split coil pickup to capture the tone, and new passive MEC electronics that were co-developed with Clayton allow for separate reduction of high and low frequencies to get his signature sound.
