low

Self learned lesson of the day: Don't get tempted to have your nut too low so as to have a soft grip on the first couple of frets. Your notes in the first position will be flat. You need the nut set up in an appropriate height to get an even intonation along the string, for the first frets it...

While I await the arrival of my 5 string fretless vette I've been researching different string possibilities, and have found that very few string manufacturers besides Warwick make a 135 low B string. Thus far DR Strings are the only company that offers a 135 and that is ony with High Beams and...

Hey guys. I just bought the Warwick 5 string babinga bass with Active pickups. I had a few questions. I am used to playing cheap basses and guitars. I also just traded my Markbass amp so I don't have an adequate amp to play through, so I am currently playing through my stereo system. I...

Hello! I have a 4-String Thumb Bolt-on with the problem of a very low output signal when running it active. The passive signal is much much higher; the active signal is really too low to use it. At first I changed the Battery several times and after that i checked also the batteries...

I wonder if there´s a option in the customshop to build a 6-string bass with a measure of 35" that has a low F# string like the Vampyre Dark Lord. greetings, Barry

Hi there, I recently bought a used Dolphin Pro II - it''s obviously not what a Dolphin I would be, but it offers very nice quality and action for the money I paid (350 €). The only thing that strikes me is its output level: Even though it's active, it is very quiet and I have turn up my...

Hi, I'm a new Warwick owner and was just finally able to get the bubinga Corvette Std 6 string I've been lusting after for ages. :) I really like the bass, I have it set up and playing beautifully. Great work, Warwick! I've noticed only one down side - it seems like the output level is really...

I've been using my Infinity NT 5 exclusively for a few months now and I love this bass - it has such a great tone and is so easy to play :) The only problem I have with it is that the Low B string is so much louder than the rest of the bass. I use Red Label strings 45-135. These really...

Hey all, I've got a 2000 Infinity which I love to bits - the versatile tone and feel are amazing, however I've struggled to get a good sound with the B string. I've played around with different strings and still not been happy with the sound.Its hard to explain but it sounds like...

Hi there I'm the owner of a Thumb BO5 and I'm very happy having it because it really cut through in the mix. Althought its a dark low mid sound and it doesn't always feel good because of it's lack low end in certain songs.(For example reggae songs) I need to buy a new warwick bass but I would...

Just picked up the Markbass Mini CMD 121P - I think I like this practice amp more than my big amp setup - Its super light and small and has alot of power, also sounds great - I bought it because I'm gonna be playing in a band again it looks like - I was at work and a teacher leaving mentioned he...

Ok...I've just purchased some rotosound stainless steel strings (my prefered choice) 35 - 95. The current ones on my streamer are heavy DR's 45 - 105, put on a week ago. They feel nice tho I catch myself and its quite some effort (for me & my smallish hands) to move. So...someone suggested...

I have a 1994 Fortress 1 active 5 string I've owned from new. (J/J pickup config). This has always had a relatively low output volume compared to other makes but I just assumed this to be normal for that bass. Sound engineers always love the tone but complain it's weak volume wise. I've just...

Hi, Is there any body have Bartolini pickup on Warwick ? I had two, Thumb 5 & SSI 5, the bartolini on the Thumb 5 already replaced to EMG many years ago due to the Mud sound(no funky), then I got a SSI 5 came with bartolini...they just don't quit, those bartolini sound O.K., the tone sounds...

Hey guys, I've recently been struggling to get the true sound out of my SS2 with my newly acquired Eden rig. I struggled with eqing the amp and bass for a good 2 weeks now. However, today I took the approach of cutting frequencies out rather than boosting other frequencies. I put a nice...

My 2001 Thumb LTD was strung with Ernie Ball .045 - .105 strings and was free of fret buzz with the factory string height (2mm between the G string & 24th fret, 2.5mm between the E string & 24th fret). I just restring it with DR Lo-Rider .040 - .100 because I want to get snappy tones. The...

I have found some interesting things regarding growl and the characteristic warwick sound that clashes with the conventions most people have. all this time, i thought that the growl exhibited by warwicks was found in the low mids, since warwicks are supposedly famous for their low mids...

Hello, I was wondering why there is no Neo speakers 2x10 cab, and why there is no compact 1x15 pro cab?!? And also i wanted to ask if 2 W-211 will have enough low end to stand out in a band, or a w-211 compined with a 1x15 cab would work better? (powered by either a Kustom Groove Bass head...

Always had low output from the MEC J pickups on my Fortress 5 string active. I notice in the control cavity, the circuit board has a small screw. Will this adjust the output volume of the active electronics? If not, what's it for? It was never a problem before - I went into a Korg AX30B FX...
