-Two passive pickups: MEC Gold jazz
-4 Pots: one volume, one for the balance with a notch for dlimiter the middle, and two bands of EQ at MEC
An easel-massive Rockbass well, which is not true of the quvalent Warwick bridge, but much better than the Fender, which is a piece of tle fold.
-The body is made of two pieces of alder (AAA quality)
Bolt-24 boxes
The crops are patent-

UTILIZATION

The handle is the one at Warwick is to say, the ball! Personally, I love, but I recommend you try it before buying, because the handle is really special. Round, but not pais, say, a stick-Bass Prcison and better: P

The handle has a dfonce at the junction body / sleeve, allowing access to acute enough boards. APRS the 22nd freight, it's harder, but no need to go so far with a bass! on the other hand, there is no marker on the button, and it's a bit Gnant.
The reclining mechanism is really a good idea, easy to give.

Otherwise, one thing I love about this bass is that it is really small and lightweight. I do not compare to my Fender Mexican Prcison, which appears twice as heavy. The game is really enjoyable sitting, both hands at mdiator. And I'm a fan incontionnel the shape of the bass.

SOUNDS

Hop on the baranche on the amp, you were desirous to troune the bottom. The scale used to choose the level of each micro SoRIE. I use the dosing sleeve 75%, 25% bridge to play with fingers, and his round Extremely hot, heavy, but not fat. And dosing sleeve 25%, 75% for a bridge game mdiator or a brighter sound, but not dry or slamming.
There is a grain and less powerful warwick
After the bridge pickup is my prfr for slap, but I like this technique too, so friends slappeurs, this bass is a aprable slapper, but I, I remain the classic game, and I only use a few techniques, apart from the harmonics and tapping.
The EQ Intgr fulfills its job.

I play on a Gallien Krueger amp 175W. I play metal in a group. It makes heavy-death. So ultra-fast tempos (sixteenth note with black = 208) or slow (white on black = 78), low rpond well.
And I play the blues with drums and sax, and also the sound is always Submitted.

OVERALL OPINION

I did not use that time, I had been ready-to dpanner me, then I care to buy after a real Warwick. Prcison is my closet!
I find it a bit expensive for what it is. I was told it stood at 550. After, it may fall on good offers and have a lower price.
I rpeter, I admire this kind of low, and this looks phallic horn suprieure.
Dsormais, I play with a real Warwick Corvette, the diffrence of use is not obvious, but the sound is gnial Warwick. The Rockbass gives an honest appercu trs.
