    Just changed my bridge

    In my original post, I did mention that I'm not crazy about the 16mm string spacing of the stock RB bridge. So I did some measuring and testing, and I realized you can successfully fit a bridge with 18mm string spacing. I bought one of these "economy" Allparts chrome bridges for $20 shipped to...

    Hipshot vs. Badass bridge

    Does anyone have any experience with or opinions of these bridges? I'm thinking of tinkering with my fretless and replacing the POS stock bridge with something a little more hefty, maybe even making it string-through. In the same arena... Do you see any tone factors with changing the tuning...

    Bridge string spacing adjustment.

    Hi. I'm about to purchase a fretless corvette 6'er and I understand you can adjust the string spacing at the bridge to as much as the neck will allow. I'm wondering if I can get up to 17mm before the strings want to go over the edge of the fretboard. I saw a thread where someone with a thumb5...

    Neck / nut / bridge adjustments after tuning down to C?

    I’m in desperate need for some expert advice here! I’m going to be auditioning for a gig later this week and the band has given me explicit guidance to tune down each string of my bass 2 whole steps (ie., E string down to C). I did this on my 4-string Corvette $$ (which was set up...

    Corvette Standard Bridge Adjustment

    Hello, This is my third Warwick which is a Corvette Standard Fretless. My question is: When adjusting the bridge height I noticed that I could not bring it down to the point where the strings would lay on the neck. I usually do this (bringing the bridge all the way down) when I'm setting up...

    Warwick 2-piece bridge - need installation instructions

    I'm going to replace 1-piece bridge on my WWSSTD with a 2-piece one. I have some basic skills needed needed for routing, but I'm not sure about bridge and tailpiece placement. Centering isn't a big issue (given the well-centered original bridge), but I'd like to know the optimum distance from...

    Need Help --changing from 1 peice bridge to the 2 peice

    I have a beat up old 5 string Streamer Standard (2 pickup config) that I just recieved after my uncle passed away. I understand this is not the finest peice warwick has ever produced but it has a great deal of value to me. For that reason I am going to completely strip all hardware and...

    Why are the pickups so close to the bridge on a Thumb?

    Am I the the only one who has a problem with this? Even on the BO 4-string, the neck p/u is still too far "back" for me to comfortably rest my thumb upon - which I do religiously. On the Corvette, the forward pick-up is placed ideally for my playing style, but I was thinking about procuring a...

    Only Two Screws on Thumb Bridge?

    I just took delivery of my very first Warwick. It's a Thumb bolt on four string. I believe it from 1999; the serial number ends with 99 and it has a wenge neck. Everything seems to be working. I'll probably put some new strings on it tomorrow and set it up. So I'm looking at the procedure...
