Attention
all Jack Bruce and Cream
fanatics: To commemorate the historic reunion of the legendary rock
band, Cream, Warwick is making a very special bass for Jack Bruce
to play. Named simply the Jack Bruce Reunion Bass,
this neck-through masterpiece features a 5-piece ovangkol neck,
with black veneers between each laminate. There is also a thin
black veneer between the fingerboard and the neck, creating a very
cool racing stripe along the edges of the neck. Add to that some
LEDs on the top edge of the fingerboard and a mother-of-pearl block
inlay that is engraved with “Jack Bruce Cream Reunion”, and you
have a classic
The body
is made of solid bubinga, with interior tone chambers that not only
enhance the harmonics and sustain, but lightens the overall weight
of the bass. The top of the bass is made from stunning AAAA Bubinga
Pommele, with a black veneer separating the body from the cap,
continuing the racing stripe theme that was started on the neck. In
short, this bass looks and sounds fantastic.
Pickups:
Two specially-designed MEC humbuckers that were handwired to Jack
Bruce’s personal specifications. The pickups are covered in a
chrome cap
The
result of all of this careful planning and work is a vintage sound
that benefits from modern construction techniques and
state-of-the-art components. The sum result of these unique
components is that you can get all best vintage tones without the
harsh tones and noise issues that are inherent in older basses. Old
school meets new cool, if you will
