Natural look, plenty of depth

Warwick RockBass Infinity 5 Natural Transparent High Polish, five-string bass

The Warwick RockBass Infinity 5 builds on the German manufacturer's tried-and-tested Infinity bass guitar by adding a low B string, which gives even more depth to its already flexible sound. Its ergonomically contoured red alder body, topped with AAA flamed maple veneer and a Natural Transparent High Polish finish, blends modern design with classic elegance. A bolt-on maple neck with ekanga veneer stripes and a wenge fingerboard ensures both stability and comfortable playability. With 24 extra-tall jumbo frets and a very flat 26" fingerboard radius, the five-string Infinity will handles everything from deep grooves to solo passages with ease. The pickup config – a J-style single coil paired with an MM-style humbucker, both from MEC – combined with the instrument's active two-band electronics and coil switching, delivers a wide tonal spectrum suited to a variety of styles.

Five is the magic number

With its extended range, from a low B to the upper registers, the Warwick Infinity 5 is capable of a wide variety of styles. The classic pickup setup – single coil at the neck, humbucker at the bridge – delivers a broad spectrum of sounds, from warm and rounded to punchy and assertive. The balance control lets players fine-tune the pickups' response, while the active two-band electronics make it possible to shape highs and lows with precision. A mini toggle switch expands the options further, offering serial, parallel, or single-coil modes for the humbucker. With 16.5mm string spacing, a 34" scale length, and an ergonomic design, the bass is well-equipped for everything from fingerstyle to modern techniques like slap and tapping. All in all, the 5-string Infinity offers a well-balanced mix of playability and versatility, making it a solid choice for both studio work and live performance.

For ambitious bassists

The Warwick RockBass Infinity 5 is aimed squarely at bassists who want to take advantage of the extended range a low B string offers – without sacrificing flexibility or playability. The combination of active electronics, MEC pickups, and coil switching gives even the most ambitious musicians a wide stylistic spectrum to choose from, from Funk and Jazz to heavier styles like Rock and Metal – where that extra string adds serious low-end punch. Thanks to its slim neck profile and moderate weight, the Infinity lives up to its name, still feeling manageable however long the session is. This five-string, admittedly, isn't intended as a beginner's bass – it's been built expressly for more advanced players looking to expand their musical horizons, with solid craftsmanship and the signature Warwick sound to back it up.

In the Spotlight

Titanium-brass frets

This Warwick bass is among the many that now feature frets made from an entirely new alloy: titanium-brass. This hard-wearing material doesn't alter the classic warm sound of a Warwick fingerboard, or its precise playability. The golden colour is eye-catching, too. The titanium is primarily intended to prevent tarnishing: Basically, the frets will look good, sound good, and feel good for longer. The ball-end frets are inserted into the tonewood via Warwick’s proprietary Invisible Fretwork Technology, with the fret slots stopping just before the edge of the fingerboard, improving resonance and comfort. Style, sound, and smooth playability: Even the smallest parts of a Warwick bass reflect their entire philosophy.

Basse de très bonne fabrication, légère et très maniable. Le son est de très bonne qualité, et le sélecteur de micro ainsi que les potards permettent de le moduler suivant les envies. Vraiment pas déçu !!!
