« Warwick RockBass Corvette »

Price paid : $549
Excellent active bass, for serious beginners. I happen to be one...
The sound is great, not too rich in harmonics, the overall quality of manufacturing, the look... Everything !
The setup hasn't been done correctly, but I guess it has to do with the retailer, not the instrument...
Amazing quality, designed in germany, built for most parts in China (that explains the relatively low cost). I've never seen such manufacturing quality coming from China before the RockBass. Impressive.
I would highly recommand this bass for beginners for two reasons : Its price, which is really aggressive for such a quality instrument, and its versatility (I've played few other active basses, especially Ibanez, during my buying process. IMHO, the Warwick is the only one that can still sound great without a battery).
