balance

Gentlemens! I have a question about the balance in my Thumb NT 6, when I pan to the bridge Pup with intentions to get that nasal tone of Jaco, the sound becomes very thin, almost just mids, and loose volume, but this does not happen with my Streamer Jazzman, I try to compensate by giving bass...

Hey everyone, im having a hard time getting comfortable with the balance on my Corvette Double Buck. I like the neck to be up more than to be flat like id rather have it to be / than - but the bass just fall back down at a flatter angle than what i want, is there like a strap i could put on...

Hi! I noticed one thing about balance control pot on my Stand. Corvette Passive. It doesn't really work as balance control like the one on my Thumb BO. It's really just like a switch control between pick-ups. I can only have neck, birdge pick-up separately or I can have both of them...

Anyone know what wood choice would make the lightest neck possible? (I think maple with maple fingerboard). And while we're at it ,which body shape is heavier ,given the wood choice is the same, a corvette or a streamer? I am trying to figure out which options would make the most vertical...

I want to share a little trick I stumbled upon last night,although this is for the thumb owners that feel their bass is neck heavy,it can be done on any bass. Loop your strap through your belt or belt loop on your pants,(feed it between the belt & your pants).Then clip your strap to the rear...

Hello to everyone: If anybody out there has actual experience with solutions (not just conjecture), I'd really appreciate some ideas or advice. I just got a neck-through Thumb Bass. Although it is the best-sounding (and fastest) bass I have ever played, it is kind of an ergonomic disaster...

Calling out to Corvette $$ users (4 and 5 string), I 'd like your comments on the instrument's balance with a strap. I recently tried out both a Corvette STD 5 Bubinga and a Corvette STD 5 Ash. I found the Bubinga's balance excellent! It easily stayed where I put it, no need whatsoever to...

While doing a setup, on my thumb 5, I noticed heavy steel bars stuck together with double-sided tape tucked away under the bridge, and in the module cavity of the bass. I assume these are counterweights intended to balance the neck so it does not tend to drop. Do other members find that this...

Hello there, calling out to Thumb NT users, can you comment on the instrument's balance? I read in another thread ("Warwick Thumb Bolt-on versus Warwick Streamer LX") some people found the BO Thumb uncomfortably neck heavy. I wonder if something like this happens on the NT version, considering...
