So, I got my Warwick Corvette 5 a few week ago and I'm very impressed with it. It's got such a lovely sound and it's really my first expensive bass.
I'm curious, I've set up basses before and changing the string heights, bridge and tension etc. But that was on my cheap Washburn and I wasn't...
Ahhh, what the heck..........I was changing some strings and wouldn't know it?
The bridge nut fell off and the spacer fell off with it.
No tools or adjustment stuff around either.
Got it home. Noticed that I could not get the spacer and the bridge nut back and also the truss cover plate...
I have a 2000 Warwick Corvette 5 string. Does anyone know how much it would cost to have all the hardware changed from chrome to black? The tuners, two piece bridge, knobs, and strap locks need to be changed. I live in the U.S. so what dealer would I go to in order to have these parts ordered...
So, I am struggling a little with the 'neck dive' of my thumb, and I read some advice about exchanging the tuning pegs for lighter ones. Has anyone here done it? Does it make for a significant difference?
Hi all
I have a Thumb 6 NT from 1990, and it sounds quite good, no problem.
I am wondering about changing the original pups it still have. Anyone has tried other pups with this kind of bass? Can you tell if the bartollini it have may be kindly replaceable for other like EMG?
Thanks in...
Hello everyone! I'm new here. Just joined few minutes ago. Anyway, here's my question. I just bought an active 5 string Warwick Corvette Standard and I'm planning to change the pickups to Bartolinis. Should I change the preamps to Barts too? or can I leave the Mec pres and just change the...
Hi all,
I'm planning on changing string gauges for my 5-string flaming blonde Thumb, from 45-135 to 40-130.
According to you, would this change require any adjustment (trussrod, action...?) Will it tend to lower the action (as I think it would?)
Hi,
wanted to know if anyone here has ever upgraded thumb bo electronics to the one that is set up in NT? 3 way with mid sweep, god I miss that button on my bass.
thanks.

I was hoping to get some answers from the builders on this one:
I have an Infinity SN5 from 2005 () that I've been trying to sell (for some reason, it's not working...). Anyway, the only reason I'm not happy with it is because to me, the neck profile is too much of a "U" type, that is, it's...
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...
Hi all
Help!
I'm trying to open up my TubePath in preparation for my new tubes arriving, and I have a couple of queries.
1) The top screws have come out OK, but the two on the front panel... umm... aren't screws! They're more like small studs, with a round indent in the middle, with no...
if i change the wiring around so the back pick up is in the front and the front pick up is in the back will that be fine to do. I have a rock bass 4 string acttive pick up they are MEC. The reason i want to do this is so i can have more highs come out i play close to the neck. the further back i...
Hello everybody! I was thinking about changing my pickups! For years I have good references from colleagues who use bartolini, in my case I have a streamer lx jazzman 5 and my style of playing is funk music! It is a good idea to make this change? Taking into account that is compatible with the...
i now have a fortress one eq, and im wanting to changing the treble and bass into one pot, and then put it in my streamer std. should that work? any help would be greatly appreciated
Hi,
I know it's a topic that has been discussed before, but maybe you guys can help me clear up some uncertainties.
I've heard and read that there is an option to adjust the output of the pre-amp. Tuesday I've received my SSII and yesterday the seller told me that a technician had lowered...
hi to you all,
i have a natural finished corvette 5 and i wanted to know if is it possible to get a more darker color (nirvana black, tobacco...) by putting a colored wax or something like that..
Thanx

Hello everyone!
After a break of 12 years with Warwick (and playing bass in general) I'm now back on the Warwick-team.
18 years ago I bought my first 2 Warwick basses (a Streamer I and a Thumb NT 5 - those must have been some of the first Warwicks in Denmark at the time). Regreatably I...
Hi there,
I'm happy with my CCL. But now I might get the opportunity to move to japan. Japan uses just 100 Volts. So would it make sence to just change the power supply and take this baybe with me ? Or ist it at the end more expensive than buying a new one there :roll: ?
