Models
Warwick RED Strings, computer designed, stainless steel:
4-string: .045" .065" .085" .105" (42200M)
5-string: .045" .065" .085" .105" .135 (42200M plus 42135 TC single string)
Attention!!!
If the string gauge is thicker than .125” we strongly recommend using tapered core strings. Otherwise the string won’t fit in the
ball end holder. Warwick RED strings stainless steel with tapered core are available as single strings with .130” gauge (42130
TC) or .135” gauge (42135 TC).
5) Pickups
All RockBass models are equipped with pickups by German manufacturer MEC (Music Electronic Company) exclusively. This
continuing collaboration brings new ideas to market and delivers high quality. More information at: http://www.mec-pickups.de
Factory setup:
The factory setup for the pickups is such that pressing the lowest and highest string at the highest fret will create a distance of
2 mm between strings and pickup
