Warwick Introduces Rockbass Idolmaker Bass
Last year, Warwick unveiled the bass version of the Framus Idolmaker at the Winter NAMM Show. At this year’s show, they unveiled a version of it for their more affordable Rockbass line.
The Idolmaker’s offset mahogany body is loaded with two passive MEC vintage single coil pickups and an active Rockbass 2-band EQ. Other features include a bolt-on maple neck, a wenge fingerboard, a Warwick Just-A-Nut III Tedur nut, and a two-piece Warwick bridge.
