WARWICK · BASS GUITARS
Two J pickups for flexible tonal balance
WARWICK Teambuilt Pro Series Corvette Bubinga, 4-String, A/A (Natural Transparent Satin) is a 4-string bass. The pickup system is MEC active JJ. Its 34" (864 mm) scale length is the nut-to-bridge distance; consider it when choosing strings and comparing playing feel.
Four strings in familiar E–A–D–G tuning provide a straightforward foundation for many bass parts. The layout is well suited to working on pulse, position changes and the relationship with the kick drum. Fingerstyle, a pick and changes in picking position produce different attacks without requiring a change of settings.

Construction and playing feel
The neck material is Ovangkol, with a fingerboard of Wenge.
The bolt-on joint is a practical construction for servicing. Fretting-hand comfort depends not only on material but also on neck relief, string height and playing posture.
Nut specification: 38.5 mm. Consider this together with neck profile when comparing the feel of different basses.
Sound and controls
Two J-style pickups sense string vibration at different positions. The neck position generally offers a rounder response, while the bridge position emphasises a more focused attack. Comparing each pickup on its own and then blending them is a practical way to find a voice for fingerstyle, pick playing or slap. The active EQ adjusts the frequency balance on the instrument itself. Start from a neutral setting and make small changes while watching the available headroom at the amplifier input.
The Just-A-Nut III allows string height adjustment at the nut, helping a technician tailor the setup to the string gauge and your fretting touch.
In practice
Two-band EQ is useful for quick room adjustments: reducing excess bass is often more effective than increasing the overall signal. To alter midrange character without a dedicated Mid control, work with the pickup balance and picking position.
Specifications
Accessories for this bass
Choose accessories to fit the instrument’s construction. Linked accessories are sold separately unless listed as included.
Bass guitar strings
Choose a 4-string set. Instrument scale: 34" (864 mm). Check gauge and winding length up to the tuners. A long-scale label alone does not guarantee compatibility with every bridge.
Gig bags / hard cases
Check the instrument’s full length, body width and neck support.
Bass straps
Choose a comfortable width and adjustment range. Check that both strap ends sit securely on the buttons before playing standing up.
Instrument cables
For a conventional bass-amp connection, choose a shielded 6.35 mm TS-to-TS instrument cable. Short patch cables are primarily intended for connections between pedals.
Tuners
Choose a chromatic tuner that tracks low bass notes reliably. A pedal tuner suits a plugged-in setup; a clip-on is convenient for quick tuning.
Stands and hangers
Check the body supports and finish-safe contact surfaces. The stand should hold this instrument’s particular shape securely.
Instrument care
Use a soft cloth after playing. Choose body and fingerboard products for the actual material and finish; an all-purpose polish is not suitable for every surface.
Bass combo amps / audio interfaces
For rehearsals, choose bass amplification with enough output for the band. For home recording, look for an interface with a Hi-Z instrument input and headphone monitoring.
