Description & Specs
The Warwick RockBass Artist Line Bootsy Collins "Space Bass" is an exceptional 4-string electric bass that combines the legendary funk sound and the unmistakable style of Bootsy Collins in one spectacular instrument. With its iconic star design, high-quality features and striking Purple Bootsy High Polish finish, this bass is not only a sonic powerhouse, but also an absolute eye-catcher on any stage. Designed for bassists looking for performance, character and extravagant design, the Space Bass combines classic Warwick quality with unique Artist Line style.
The two-piece mahogany body ensures a warm, powerful basic sound with powerful mids and long sustain. The 3-strip laminated maple neck with black veneer strips, together with the integrated carbon reinforcements, offers high stability and a fast, comfortable playing feel. The high-quality wenge fingerboard with eye-catching star inlays underlines the individual look of the instrument and at the same time delivers a direct response and precise articulation. Thanks to the bolt-on construction and the ergonomic long-scale scale, the bass impresses with excellent playability and balanced handling.
In terms of sound, the Warwick RockBass Bootsy Collins Space Bass delivers maximum versatility and powerful presence. The active MEC Jazz / Twin Jazz pickups produce a clear, defined tone with a rich foundation and brilliant assertiveness. Using the active MEC 2-band electronics with volume, balance, treble and bass controls, the sound can be flexibly adapted to a wide variety of music styles - from funk and soul to rock and modern bass sounds. High-quality shielding and precise electronics ensure a clean and interference-free signal.
Warwick also relies on the highest quality when it comes to hardware and workmanship. The 2-part Warwick 3D bridge allows for precise adjustment options and optimal intonation, while Warwick tuners and Warwick S-Security Locks ensure maximum reliability on stage. Rounded fret ends with Invisible Fretwork Technology further increase playing comfort. The scope of delivery also includes a wide range of accessories and a high-quality RockBass Starline gig bag.
