Warm-sounding hollowbody construction
The key to the Warwick StarBass 5-string's old-school tone is its fully hollowbody construction, adding an acoustic-like thump to your every note. The body is constructed from highly resonate maple for an open, airy feel that calls to mind the vintage-style bass tone of the '60s. Plus, the StarBass 5-string boasts a comfortably lightweight shape that’s a breeze to hold during those long sets, and the double-cutaway style offers unmatched upper fret access.
Double MEC vintage single-coil pickups
The StarBass 5-string’s hollowbody construction provides an exceptionally warm tone, and this instrument’s pair of MEC Passive vintage single-coil pickups are just the thing to crank up the clarity! Featuring a standard 3-way switching configuration, these pickups allow the StarBass 5-string to cover the entire sonic spectrum of bass tones, and Sweetwater bassists find that they beautifully accentuate the StarBass 5-string’s natural resonance.
