fortress

Hi, I've found this Fortress One that looks like a 3-pieces Body, but the specs on bass page mention 2-pieces only. Can this be original? Thanks and forgive my poor english :cry:

does anyone own a fortress rockbass fretless....? are they any good?

wuick question. does anybody know the wiring diagram number for the Fortress One? I would like to see what pots I have and I do not know if the pick ups are active or passive. how do you know if the pick ups are active or passive? I know the elecs are active since there is a battery there but...

I think he deserves his own topic. bought this beauty last week, 2nd hand for €650! Plays like a dream, except for the string spacing, but I'll get used to it. (I.E. I'm saving up for a streamer stage I :lol: ) And...

Hi, a quite big problem with my Fortress One: close to the amplifier (even 2 meters), the bass is very noisy, expecially the neck pickup, and the noise reduces when I rotate myself (with the bass), as it would be a strange magnetic field. What can I do? Many Thanks.

Hi all... Should have the pressed CD back any day now. A long 15 month project, finally nearing completion. Dave Amadio is the artist. I'm one of his bass whores. :wink: I played bass on 12 of the 15 tracks. Two of my tracks can be heard at: . "Left of Center" is one of my fav's on...

Hey! We need a club too! It probably won't be nearly as big as the others, but it will be more exclusive 8) I don't think you'll see as many CS basses as on the other threads, but what the hell. Here we go, I'll start: My 10-year old custom ovangkol Warwick Fortress MM with EMG...

Hi! Wonder if anyone out there can answer me this: Is the body of the Warwick Fortress One (not the masterman or flashback) made of swamp ash or maple, the official warwick websites (U.S and European) seem to disagree and mine's got a solid finish so i can't tell Cheers Pete

Another custom shop dream bass I have always wanted is a 6 string dolphin or infinity. Do you think warwick would make either of them considering these models don't come in 6 string? If so do you know about how much it would cost?

I've found a '94 Fortress one, all pasive 4 string with a really dark wenge neck. I usally play 5 strings but the growl on this bass was amazing. Anyway, they want $640 for it and I need to know if this is a good price. Prices are hard to find on line for some reason.

Well...I'm thinking in making yet another blind move and buying a used Fortress One. Main reason is because I've been looking to move to something with a set of P pick-ups. Just wondering what everyone's thoughts and experiences are with the Fortress One. Any issues or concerns I should have...

I recently picked up a black gloss fortress one passive, I believe it is a 93, that I love. A couple of the pickup screws are a touch rusty-even a little stripped- and I'd like to replace them - maybe all of them. Here's the question - are the 30mm pickup screws correct for this bass? My...

I didn´t know Warwick did that. Must have been a very limited edition indeed... :wink:

I'm sure there is a post on this somewhere but I'm not the one to go through everything to find it so here's my question. I have a 94 Fortress One 5 Fretted bass and I took it in this week to have a few frets replaced (4 were replaced to be exact). I picked it up today and as expected it plays...

Saw this for sale on Craigslist and hadn't ever heard of one. Looks interesting. Anyone here have one or played one? Were EMG's standard?

Yes sir, like ciggie smoke, real bad. Any suggestions for removing a smoke small from a bass? It's honey violin satin. Even the firkin' neck stinks. Yes that lovely wenge reeks like a London Underground men's room. It's been cleaned, body with Pledge Multi Surface and the neck waxed. It's so bad...

So I scored the beautiful '95 Fortress MM on craigslist. I let it warm up in the case,restrung and played a bit and found some slight fret buzz. I adjusted the nut a bit and it eliminated all but the buzz on the E string. Rather than start messing with the bridge saddles, I opted to put a bit...

Hi all, I was looking at the custom shop options and was impressed with the choice, however looking at the price list, I didnt have a clue where to start with working out the costs. Has anyone had one of these little beauties made and can say roughly how much it cost, with maybe a screenie...

I was perusing the forum a few weeks back, and someone asked about the Fortress being discontinued. A member replied that, in theory, a Fortress could be built by the custom shop. Is this true?

Here's a few pics of the Fortress I just received. I cleaned the body and waxed the neck prior to photographing it. The furball in one pic is Bella (AKA Bella the Booh), you may recognize her from the pics of the Dolphin I posted previously, she loves attention, and Warwick basses.
