In Celtic mythology Taranis was the God of Thunder who was worshipped in Gaul and Britain. Taranis is also the name of a
thunderous Warwick bass that is worshipped by bassists who want a powerful tone and a dramatic presence.
For many years players from all over the world would order custom 4-string Warwicks that were tuned (from low to high) B, E,
A, and D. So, the Taranis 4-string comes standard with that same tuning. (The 5-string Taranis is tuned B, E, A, D and G.)
The body is Swamp Ash, the neck is a bolt-on Wenge with Ovangkol fingerboard, the passive MEC MM and
SC pickups deliver a gutteral tone that is both in your face and present in the mix. This beast is not delicate at all.
Another cool feature about the Taranis is its finish. The swamp ash body is lightly sandblasted to remove the softest parts of
the wood. This process creates a killer texture and appearance that highlights the grain. You have to see it in person to appreciate the
visual impact of this unique Warwick finish.
The Taranis is a great bass for the player who wants power and glory without compromises!
Warwick ships these basses with a super heavy duty gig bag, so that is included with your bass, but hardcases are available as upgrade case options.
