Warwick has pulled out all the stops with a new Custom Shop Masterbuilt Katana 8-string bass. According to the manufacturer, Reeder wanted an 8-string bass with four normal and four octave strings for a new project. The Chrome-Tone Finish – available in different colours – is one of the most complex finishes that Warwick makes in its Framus & Warwick Custom Shop in Markneukirchen, Germany.
Reeder is left-hander, but he plays his instruments ‘upside down’, with stringing for right-handed players. We also integrated a metal plate at the end of the fingerboard of the Warwick Masterbuilt Scott Reeder Katana 8-String Bass, to protect the wood against Scott’s heavy playing style.
