Warwick is a global guitar and bass brand based in Germany.
In recent years, they have begun distributing global brands such as Sadowsky.
They have expanded their presence in many fields and released a number of attractive products.
Many top artists, including Stuart Zender, Jonas Hellborg, and Robert Trujillo, use Warwick basses. (Titles omitted)
They have made the world aware of their excellence.
Warwick offers several models, but the Thumb Bass is a particularly unique model.
This is a special, limited-edition model.
The body top is made of flamed walnut and the back is made of walnut.
The neck is made of Wenge and the fingerboard is made of Tigerstripe ebony.
As you would expect from a limited edition, it boasts luxurious specifications.
As the BO symbol indicates, it is bolt-on.
The extensive use of hard woods is a key feature of the brand as a whole.
Perhaps because of this, the sound has a deep bass that hits the depths of the earth, yet never becomes blurred and maintains a clear sound image.
The pickups are positioned towards the rear, which seems distinctive, but there is absolutely no sense of a lack of low frequencies.
This beautiful sound is three-dimensional and deep, and you can feel the rare characteristic of beautiful slaps as well.
