finish

I am thinking on refinishing my Streamer Std. I love the color but it has too many dings and grooves (previous owner was a slapper). From another thread i've intruded, i got the following... Has anybody attempted this, before? Any clarification would be very helpfull. thanks

This my have been brought up before but I was wondering if the custom shop will do oil, satin, or natural satin finishes on fretboards to match the body. I've seen a lot of cool looking flame maples that are dyed a color but the brown wenge (or sometimes ebony) fretboards seem to ruin the look...

Hello, Sorry I've asked about finishes before,but my local dealer here in England says that The Natural Satin Finish is not available on the Thumb NT,but only the Natural Oil finish is. :cry: Please can someone tell me if it is.I am due to order my Bass but there seems to be some...

Hello, Going to get a Corvette NT Bubinga in SATIN NATURAL finish.Does that mean you dont have to wax it up? Thank you.

Hi, Does anyone have a picture of the Thumb NT in natural Gloss finish? Many thanks.

I have a 5 string Katana. It appears that the finish on the fingerboard is different that Tigerstripe Ebony fingerboard. It is not solid black or even dark for that matter. I bought it for some else. Is it posssible to remove the ebony finish. Here is the serial number C 123517 06. Can you tell...

Hi, I'm new here, does anyone have insider info as to why there are no natural finish Rockbasses in the US? The blue versions are transparent, so you'd think they'd offer some w/out the dye. :P [Edit] I've seen pics/threads of people showing off their brand new...

One quick question, why isn't Tranparent White finish available? I think that would look great on ash corvettes with black hardware (and ebony board!).

my 97 fortress has the red stain finish. is this an oil or satin finish??? I'm the first owner and it came this way from warwick. as far as cleaning goes I just use lemon oil and thats it reason for asking is shiney spots. some areas have the satin dull look and other areas are real shiney...

OK, i just got my vampyre SN today and ... sadly, it has a big chunk of finish lost in the butt end (no doubt from shipping - never trust a softcase that is not a Warwick Rockbag). The chunk is so big i have decided to re-finish this beatiful bass. so what do you think guys? Refinish...

Hi, Can anybody tell me how deep the coloured oil finish penetrates the wood. I would like to remove it to have the natural oil finish. Thanks for your help. :wink:

A local dealer has a Katana NT in natural oil for sale pretty cheap, but it's been on the floor a while, and it's all smudged up. It also has a broken nut, but it's "new", i.e., never sold. I could probably get the price down under $1500, but I'd like to be able to get it clean. Is that possible?

Hey chaps ! I'm looking for pics of Warwick basses in Honey Violin, especially on maple like this one: Thanks !

Hi, finally I got my Streamer Jazzman and can be called a Warwick user. But I was very surprised, when I got him out of the gigbag. This is Honey Violin Finish? It's a little bit pale, isn't it? Did they made a mistake? Maybe you could help me: Is it Honey Violin?

I hope this isn't too stupid a question - but here goes: Any new Bubinga( Vette's in particular) Warwicks I have seen appear a fair bit lighter in hue than used or older models(though most of those I have seen only in pics). This phenomenon is really noticable "in person" so to speak. It does...

I saw a 99 streamer stage 1 five string with barts and brass nut being worked on at my local shop, it was pretty.... :shock:

Sweat won't hurt the body of the bass if its natural will it? Especially if I wax in on a weekly bassis? Thanks

Hey. I just bought a Warwick Corvette STD NB. And damn ive played for 1 week and it allready got marks on the back where it has been teared against my jeans with buttons. Isnt that a little bit extreme? It got other marks on the body too. How do you take care of yours? I mean it...

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...
