Description
Step inside the Warwick Custom Shop in Markneukirchen, Germany, and follow the incredible creation of a custom Warwick Dolphin Pro I bass from the first stages of construction to the finished instrument. Crafted using a neck-through design with a Swamp Ash body and a four-piece Wenge neck with maple veneers, this unique Dolphin is finished in Lagoon Blue Burst Transparent Satin, and features black hardware and a Wenge fingerboard with the distinctive Dolphin inlays.
While the wood, hardware and electronics tell part of the story, this film is really about the amount of specialized hand-work needed to bring all of these elements together. As the rough wood transforms into an instrument, the character of the bass begins to emerge. From the careful sanding by hand through to the finishing bass, the process is increasingly and unmistakably human.
The final steps are where this Dolphin really comes alive. Warwick's luthiers work on the instrument with their hands, sanding and preparing the surfaces, applying the stain and finish and eventually assembling and seeing to every detail until the bass is ready to be delivered to the customer. Features include active MEC J/Twin-J pickups with brushed metal covers, Warwick's active 2-way electronics with a rechargeable lithium battery, a solid brass 3D bridge and Graph Tech tuners fitted with wooden buttons. The fingerboard carries 26 extra-hard jumbo bronze frets with Warwick's Invisible Fretwork Technology, while the brass Just-A-Nut III and neck-through construction complete a design built around precision and sustain. It is the sanding by hand, fitting, finishing and an incredible attention to detail that turn these carefully selected pieces of wood into an instrument that is a work of art.
