Warwick Announces Steve Bailey Signature Bass
Fretless bassist Steve Bailey has joined up with Warwick as an endorsing artist, and the company has just unveiled a new Steve Bailey Signature Bass. The model is a 6-string fretless based on their Streamer, though the design has been modified for better access to the upper register of the neck.
The Steve Bailey Signature bass features bolt-on construction and a 34″ scale. The swamp ash body is matched with an ovangkol neck that has a signature asymmetrical profile, topped with a snakewood fingerboard.
A pair Seymour Duncan active Soapbar pickups are coupled with Bailey’s signature Seymour Duncan active 2-way electronics. The bass is rounded out visually with a black high polish finish with a polished stainless steel pickguard.
