corvette

Yo bass brothers, My first post and a big hello from the Philippines. I have recently played "live" onstage again, after oh so many years of studio production life. And took with me my lovely 1998 Warwick Corvette. Check out the results! My '98 Corvette in action The stage bass amp...

Hi All, I have decided to buy a Warwick Corvette Standard in Ash. However, I'm not sure what advantage there will be tonally between having a passive pickup model with passive electronics or the passive pickups with the selectable active/passive electronics. My other basses are a Fender MIA...

Newbie: I used to have a Corvette standard, bubinga, fretted, and liked it. Now I'm looking at a couple of fretless 4 strings -- a standard bubinga 'vette -- and a proline 'vette. I really don't know anything about the proline vs the standard. Does the maple body and lower weight change the...

Hey there, I have some questions about Taranis, in which i am interested right now, and the pickup config. looks quite interesting. I've never seen a Taranis review, I've never seen a famous bass player playing a Taranis, and I've never seen Taranis on youtube. Does it mean that it's not as good...

Hey guys, In this Clip i play a Corvette 5 string. I doubled the bass.... one with the back pickup on, and one with both pickups on. Hope you like it!! Nick

is a 15mm strings spacing normal for the 5 strings corvette ? I have played almost 20 years with my 4 strings yamaha BB 1600 (19mm strings spacing) and the corvette is, well... weird! Just wondering if these are the standard specs

i've just got a new RB corvette 4 passive, which i'm very pleased with in general, but i'm having and issue with the sound on the E. i get a sort of sandy (cant think of any other words to describe it) hissing sound when i play it, which i hear when it's amp'd and when it's unplugged. i've...

Has anyone tried s Corvette $$NT Bubinga fretless??? I am getting a fretless Warwick pretty soon and I'm choosing between the Corvette Std Bubinga or the the $$NT Bubinga... I have tried the Std and I really like it. How does the the $$NT sound? I will usually use the single coil setting...

I am getting ready to upgrade my bass and naturally I have started looking at Warwick’s for that next level of quality and performance. After doing some preliminary research on the different model offered, I have come to feel that a Corvette would be ideal for me both due to its versatility and...

Hi, I'm sorry if this has already been asked, the search bar hasn't been helping me at all. I noticed that the "high-polish" color option is not available on the corvette standards, so does that mean I can't get a snow-white finish on the bass? Would something like a satin finish work...

Hello all, First off, let me state that I love Warwick basses. I presently own a Streamer Jazzman 5 and Corvette Proline 5. Both were purchased brand new a few years ago, and I would not trade them for any other basses in the world. Due to a great discount and my desire to own another...

You can listen here. I covered "Have It Your Way", "Do What You Do" and "Pulling The String". I'm especially proud of Pulling The String. I've been trying to get his tone forever. I play a Corvette STD with active pickups and electronics, though most of the time I bypass the active...

Anybody knows of a website that offers all the colors possible for the corvette standard ? I live in France and usually order from thomann because their prices are good and the shipping costs are free, but they only offer natural or nirvana black.

I'm curious about the factory setting for the pickup heights for my Corvette Standard 5 string. However, the factory settings on all aspects of that bass, may be useful to me, or others, in the future. So.... Anybody able to give me the factory setup specs? Ta. Fuzzy :roll:

I saw warwick corvette basic at musiciansfriend.com and amazon.com with relatively low price for a warwick. is it rockbass, or it is korea or somewhere else made warwick? thanks for information.

Alrighty - long story short, I'm already scoping out my next axe, and I'm considering a Streamer Jazzman 5, a used SSII 5, and a Corvette $$ 5. My Thumb NT is incredible and my primary player - it has a hugely cutting tone that works well. I view my Corvette as a bass with some healthy mids...

Hey guys, got my 4 string Standard the other day. :) According to serial #, looks like it's a 2005 model. Just a few small dings, otherwise looks awesome and sounds great! I have only had a chance to play it through a smaller amp in my house, my gigging rig used to be a GK1001 RBII head and an...

While surfing on the internet I once again came across the unexceeded website of MarloweDK: "Playbassnow.com"..... Nowadays, he has some guest teachers doing some (special) video lessons... One of them is called Casimer, and for (at least) one of his videos, he used a (beautiful)...

Hi everyone! I have just bought an used Corvette Fretless Standard Feb/2007 edition, here in San Francisco, California. The bass is beautiful, perfect, and a good deal for US$500.00 in its original bag, wax, manual, tools, etc., but I need to find the strap lock tops. He did not have the strap...

I'm not 100% happy with the pickups in my Standard. How about some recommendations for possible replacements? For reference, I have a four-string with passive electronics; no preamp of any kind. I'm happy with the midrange punch I get, but what bothers me is a little bit of "blurriness"...
