electronics

I am in the process of procuring a slightly used active 'Vette(to go with my passive one of course :wink: ) - it is in basically perfect shape, except that one of the tabs on the electronics-cover is badly buggered and about to fall off. I know it is no big deal, but little things like that...

This might interest some of you: I've heard that Warwick might be looking for an amp freak to work in the amp dev. department in Markneukirchen... Anyone one up for a job at HQ?

Are the Rockbass Corvette passive controls more or less the same controls as the passive Warwick models? That is, master volume, blend and tone? Or is it Volume, volume, tone? Or is it something altogether different? Just hearing there was a passive version available made me happy though, so...

***HELP*** I'm having some issues with my rockbass 4 string vette standard. I have the 06 model with the ground wire issue which has been fixed but now....The bass and treble controls are acting up. When the bass and treble are center...a lot of static. If I turn up the turn the...

I am having some problems with either the electronics or pickups in my Thumb NT 5 :cry: when I play hard on the B string, I get a slightly distorted sound. I figured this was either due to the pickups being too high or the input attenuator on the preamp was set too high, but after many...

I have a 97 Fortress MM with what looks like a birds eye maple body with a high gloss finish.My question is this standard stuff for that year.The other question I have is the control layout.I saw on the Warwick site the wiring diagram showing the vol/bal pot having a push/pull function.The bass...

I'm under the impression that the P-NUT II has the same pickups and electronics as the Streamer Jazzman? Correct? Do all the 3 band electronics have the input attenuator that I have seen and used on my thumb, as my P-NUT II doesn't have the attenuator? Is it only on basses with the...

How big of a difference is thier between MEC 2band active electronics and 3 band. I know the sound of a 2 band from my thumb bo, but does the mid control on the 3 band make a big difference?

I have a 89 Stage 2 4-String with 2 band electonics (old MEC I believe) and EMG PUs the sound is great but not as spectacular as on my 06 Stage 2 5 String . I am thinking about putting in the new electronics and PU What do you think?

Hello, I know this is going to be a long read but if anybody could stick it out and make me some recommendations, I would be extremely grateful. I've owned my Corvette FNA Jazzman 4 string for about six or seven years now so I have one of the older ones with the Seymour Duncan pre-amp in...

So, what are my options as far as passive pick ups go in a custom Warwick?

Hello. Well, I'm new to the forum and to the bass. Well, actually to playing any instrument at all. I want to buy a, well who would guess it, RockBass. I really like the Streamer (4String) in white with the 2 Humbuckers. But I don't know if it would be better to get a bass with active...

can someone please help elucidate for me the fine points of electronics? i always, for example, thought a preamp was a separate piece that attached to the battery to modify sound with active pickups...the more i look for good preamps, the more it looks like what companies describe as...

Ok, so if you swap the preamp in a $$ for a Bart or Aguilar, will the pup switches work with the new preamp?

We have now online all details about Pickups and Electronics options available for Warwick Basses in the custom Shop section. Please, have a look here:

Ok so with my new Corvette i was thinking of adding a pre-amp i trawled through the forum and found the info i was looking for and have decided if i'm gonna do this i'm gonna get a aguilar OBP-2. Its just because after playing my $$ i've fallen in love with a 2 band eq and how i can dial in the...

As some of you may know, I was never satisfied with the 2 way Mec electronics of my 1989 Thumb. The reason is that, even with bass/treble controls set flat, activating the electronics with the push/pull decreases sound quality. About one year ago I finally replaced them with a high quality...

Hey there, this is my first post here :) I'm having a bit of a problem with my streamer stage one 5 (from 2002 bought second hand)...it suddently started to make an irritating noise whenever I switched to passive but I didn't pay it much atention because I rarelly use it in passive mode...

i was looking on ebay, and i saw a rockbass corvette that had the warwick cavity cover on the back... it had the two tabs instead of like 800 screws. Is there any way i can upgrade?

what was the last year the the 5 string thumb nt had 18v electronics in it? i'm looking into buying a used one, and the guy selling it says its a 2000 model with 18v electronics in it. i thought they stopped putting them in before 2000, but then again i don't know much about the thumbs. any...
