body

g'day guys, I spotted this on eBay: Look at the second picture - I've never seen a TBO with mismatched wood. What gives?

Does anyone know if a late model 5-string Corvette Standard body is the same size/width as a 4-string version? Will the 5-string body fit in the molded plastic case that my 4 string Corvette Standard came in? Thanks

Simple question: Can Warwick make a Thumb BO, or Corvette BO with a 1 piece body made of Ovangkol, Bubinga (Pommele), Ash or some other wood ??

hi guys! why and when are used these two options? if custom is 2 piece, if normal is 3 piece? you can specify if you want 2 piece body? the sound is different or is just a design thing? thanks.

Guys, I don't care much for Streamers, but was wondering the following: Oliver mentioned recently that Warwick will be having Afzelia Pommele soon......... Now, Warwick switched some years ago from regular Bubinga to Bubinga Pommele for the Thumb NT..........so should Warwick do that with...

HI, does anybody have a clue what this is exactly?? I was told that the bass was a giveaway for the "Fachblatt" a German magazine. The serial is D-004014-92 It has a laminated A++ grain ash body, a beautifull rosewod fingerboard, a D-Tuner, side Dot LEDs, active electronics (18 V) So the...

I guess most of us can have a relative idea, based on various sound bytes and reviews, of what Ash or Bubinga can do for your sound, but what of the other Custom shop wood possibilities? What does Afzelia, Amarello, Carolena, Cherry, Walnut, Wenge do for the sound? I'm interested in a...

would love to see a singlecut Warwick based on the streamer shape.... mmm... :D

I am going to a wrist specialist tomorow to get checked for tendonitis in my forearms/wrists. There is definitely something wrong here. Is playing a fretless easier on the hands/arms? I didn't damage my arms playing bass, but playing makes my fretting arm flare up pretty bad. I'm wondering if a...

Hello everyone, I was recently at my favorite music shop and spent a long time playing around with a Stage II 5-string. I don't think I've ever been more satisfied with a bass in my whole life. Yet I would still like to order one with an AAA flamed maple body (mainly for visual purposes)...

I removed almost all the the black paint from my old fortress masterman because wanted it natural. Now I find that some black spots don't come away and the natural maple of the body is not very nice: it's a 2 pieces joint together very different between them . So I realize it's better come back...

I was wondering, is it possible to build a corvette std bass, but with a streamer ash body (bolt on)? How much extra would that cost :?:

Hi guys, I'm new to the forum. First off, I LOOOVE Warwicks! I bought my first Warwick bass a few years ago. It was a used 98 Thumb BO 4 string. Totallly sounded and felt unlike anything I'd ever played before. This bass' body was made up of 3 peices of wood and if I ran my finger over the...

That is, if I got a custom Streamer, a Corvette and a Thumb with the same features (woods, pickups etc), would there be any difference in sound?

Has anybody of you out there pictures of... Makassar Cocobolo Ziricote ...Warwick basses? And can anyone give me some musical informations 'bout this woods? That would be great 'cause i'm not sure what kind of body wood i should choose =) Makassar is awesome ... at least at this...

Hi buddies, I want to ask in general what kind of sound does a Swamp Ash body give. I am just wondering what will happen if the Bubinga Pommele body of a Thumb is replaced by a Swamp Ash body, while the other spec. are kept the same. I think those Thumb users here in this forum should be...

What you use for cleaning natural finish basses? Or you just wax them? Can i use substances for furniture cleaning ?

ei guys what's the difference between a wenge neck & a maple neck regarding stiffness & tone? what's the difference between a maple body & a wenge/bubinga/obankol body regarding tone?

I just bought my new Corvette $$ in black coloured oil finish. My dealer also sold me a pot of Warwick "surface finisher" wax for polishing the body. But in the enclosed owner manual, it says, that "all colored oil models are completely sealed by their finish" and "a wax treatment is not...
