For over 40 years, Adam Clayton’s driving bass lines have served as the foundation of U2’s rhythm section. Suffice it to say, the man knows his 4-string basses! His signature Warwick RockBass Artist Line Adam Clayton bass guitar puts that expertise to good use, sporting a lightweight alder body, sturdy maple neck/fingerboard, and a punchy Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound split-coil pickup for plenty of punch and precision. Next, these old-school features are seamlessly combined with Warwick’s decidedly modern approach to bass building.
The adjustable Tedur Just a Nut III and sustain-enhancing Warwick 3D 2-piece delivers a stage-ready reliability, further enhanced by the neck’s 21 jumbo nickel-silver frets in an easy-playing 20-inch radius. Whether you’re looking to cop some of Adam’s most iconic low-register riffs or if you’re simply looking for your next stage bass, the Warwick RockBass Artist Line Adam Clayton Bass offers the perfect blend of vintage tone and modern performance.
