Warwick Adds Corvette Taranis Model to RockBass Line
Warwick introduced the RockBass Corvette Taranis at this year’s Winter NAMM Show. The four-string bass features an extra long 35-inch scale for better use with drop tuning.
The bass is built with an ash body, a bolt-on maple neck, and a wenge fingerboard. Warwick fits it with a pair of active EMG DC35 soapbar pickups matched to a two-band EQ. They round it out with a two-piece Warwick bridge, Warwick tuners, and the Just a Nut III Tedur nut.
The Warwick RockBass Corvette Taranis is built in their Chinese facility. It will be shipping this year with a retail price of $1,599.99.
