Product Overview
The Corvette $$ features a 3-piece US swamp ash body that provides exceptional tonal balance with the bright, punchy characteristics and excellent sustain that has made swamp ash the choice of professional bassists worldwide. The 3-lamination ovangkol neck offers superior stability and unique tonal characteristics, while the wenge fingerboard provides the smooth playing surface and clear tonal properties essential for professional performance. The 20" fingerboard radius ensures comfortable playability for both intricate fingering work and aggressive playing styles.
The standout feature of this bass is its innovative pickup switching system, featuring two 3-way mini-switches that allow separate configuration of each MEC MM-Style humbucker for series, parallel, or single-coil operation. This provides an unprecedented range of tonal possibilities, from thick, powerful humbucker tones to bright, articulate single-coil sounds and everything in between. The active MEC 2-way electronics with Volume, Balance, Treble, and Bass controls provide precise tonal shaping capabilities.
Professional appointments include 24 jumbo bronze (extra hard) frets with IFT (Invisible Fretwork Technology) for exceptional durability and smooth playability, Just-A-Nut III Tedur for optimal tone transfer, and Warwick 2-piece bridge system for superior string stability.
