DESCRIPTION
This 1998 Warwick Fortress One is a killer German-made bass finished in a great-looking Translucent Red. The Fortress is known for its comfortable, uniquely sculpted body shape, fast-playing neck, and the punchy, articulate tone Warwick basses from this era are loved for.
It has plenty of low-end weight while staying tight and defined, making it equally at home with fingerstyle, pick playing, or slap. A seriously cool late-’90s Warwick that delivers that unmistakable growl and feel without being one of the models you see every day.
