Triumph Upright
Get
ready to be blown away! The new Warwick Triumph electric upright bass is here
and it is a beauty. Available in 4 and 5-string versions, the Triumph is a
modern take on the original Framus design, which was originally manufactured
in the early 50’s. The body is comprised of a maple back with a spruce top,
and the neck is made of handpicked maple, with an ebony fingerboard. Onboard
you will find a custom MEC alnico magnetic pickup and a set of specially designed
piezo bridge pickups, which can be blended and controlled with a unique passive
mixing system. You can choose between a natural finish, or even opt for one
of the classic Warwick colored oil stains. Lastly, all Triumphs come with chrome
hardware.
The
playability of the Triumph really surprised and pleased players at the Winter
NAMM show. Arco players raved over the contoured fingerboard profile, and
pizzicato players loved the low action and the fully-adjustable body rest,
which allowed them to really “dig in”. The tone range is wide and comprehensive,
covering everything from the most woody of tones to the nearly synthetic
tone that New Age bassists seem to love. Best of all, the Triumph is easy
to dial in.
Available in April of 2004, the Triumphs will come with a unique stand and a premium bow bag. Production will be limited so put in your deposit now and prepare to be blown away yourself!
