There was even more gold for the Warwick
Star Bass II, when none less than Adam Clayton from the Irish rock band U2 ordered a custom shop version of the semihollow
classic. Whether the U2 bassist was inspried by his Gold records when choosing the finish is not known. It is a fact, though,
that the Star Bass II is "draped" in an exclusive high polish finish named `Triumph Gold 3-layered ´, which is continued on
the headstock. Top, sides and bottom of this Star Bass II are made of flamed maple of AAA quality. The fretboard consists
of Tigerstripe Ebony with decorative mother of pearl block inlays.
The Star Bass II is fired up by two passive MEC Star Bass single coil pickups and passive MEC electronics. These single
coils have been specially developed for the Star Bass by MEC owner Vlado Hansal. Apart from its extraordinary finish this
Star Bass boasts some other special features: a graphite nut, Dunlop 6230 nickel silver frets and Schaller security-locks.
Last, but not least: All that glitters is gold after all! The bass's rich golden finish is beautifully completmented by gold
hardware.
