Crafted with aged WWII-era solid exotic woods, and solid Brass Bridge and parts by Schaller. It embodies their mastery of craftsmanship, play-ability, ergonomics, design, visual aesthetics and extreme durability.
Warwick's focus on sound, form, and ruggedness using exotic woods like Wenge and Zebrano as featured in this instrument, set completely new industry standards. With meticulous wood selection, curation, aging, and stabilization, Warwick remains a highly sought for their play-ability, durability, quality, stability, and aesthetics, and of course vintage collect-ability.
