neck

I have the chance to pick one up at a decent price but no way of checking one out first. Any and all opinions are appreciated. I like big necks but really cant stand neck heaviness! Thankyou!

hi there fellow warwick fans, i used to be the proud owner of a warwick corvette bubinga ( cos i couldnt afford a streamer!) but sold it coz it was just rediculously heavy for live work. i unfortunately traded it for sometging non warwick and now wish i hadnt. i bought my corvette 2nd hand...

I bought a '94 Corvette Proline from Guitar Center for $100. Why so cheap? Well then neck has a crack in it from what appears to be pressure from the truss rod. Check the pics: Do you guys feel this is fixable? I know I'd have to take it to a luthier. I'd really like to save the neck if...

im just curious whether all warwick neck BOLT-ON specs are the same ... im planning to have a fretless neck made for my Darklord by a local luthier, and im going to send him the neck ... and just in case i get another warwick BO, would the darklord neck fit, say, on a thumb BO? i...

Hi, I'm looking at getting a Corvette but cant find any info on Warwick neck dimensions. Anyone know where to look? J

Hello fellow Warwick players, I have a Corvette that has a three piece neck and i can feel the seams in between the neck pieces , is this because of shrinkage in the wood? I thought it was a crack but it not. it goes all the way from the heal to the headstock. is this a defective neck or...

I just got this adapter that fix about 95% of the neck dive of a Thumb Bass, it won't damage the bass and you don't have to make any modifications to the bass, but it must have warwick strap locks to make it work. it may look a little bit weird but I don't have to hold the bass because the neck...

My current axe is a FNA Jazzman 4 string thats got a swamp ash body, bubinga pommole top, ovangkol neck and a flame maple fingerboard. And its got a really sweet twist in the neck. Before I go blow $600 on a new neck I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a alternate route. Im open...

Hi, I bought this bass about a year ago, though I haven't played it a lot. I don't know exactly when this crack appeared. I will try to describe it as good as I can: (sorry if my english is not Shakespeare's) - It's located in the back of the neck, in the upper part, at about 1 or 2 cm...

I'm new here so please bear with my ignorance. I've been playing primarily jazz style basses for over 30 years. I'm getting ready to buy my first Warwick 4 string. I've heard so many good things about them! I know I'm going with a neck-thru, but I don't know which Warwicks have thin 1 1/2" nut...

Hope you all had a great new year. I have a white Warwick Thumb bass 5 string (thru neck with top LEDs) that I procured back in the summer. I was thinking about getting the paint stripped off the back of the neck to reveal the wood again. At the moment it's completely white apart from the...

May be about to acquire a Warwick thumb 6er fretless lefty, and I was wondering if its possible to purchase a 6er lefty fretted neck at all? Can anyone help me? Or anyone want a trade? :P

A few of you wanted to hear how my Corvette sounded after I got the new neck made. Wait no longer, check it out here.. Also, I just picked up a pretty rare bass over the holidays. Take a look at this Limited American Designer Edition Fender Silver Sparkle Jazz Bass: Koy Carson...

Hi everyone, I got the photos from the build, so I thought I would post em. The guy responsible is Dale Blevins here in West Texas. He is a Luthier of great talent, and builds acoustics from scratch. Notably, some of his instruments can be heard on studio albums from the Dixie Chicks...

I was looking at the Custom Shop price list and saw that were Retail prices listed for replacement necks. Im not sure exactly how this works, but im guessing that if you send your defective neck back to Warwick they send you a new neck and these prices are there as an indication of their value...

Hello, I'm new to the forum and glad to know there is one I can access. I have what may be a dilemma from what I've read on here about guys with broken necks.... Can I just straight up buy a fretted Corvette neck or does Warwick require a neck in trade?? I wanna be able to switch out...

I was browsing TB when I came across a thread discussing Warwicks... nice! It was mentioned a few times in this thread that Warwick necks are prone to snapping in two :shock: Now I recall seeing a pic and a piece of news about HPW balancing/standing on a Warwick neck while it was...

I was reading on GC's website that Thumb's have neck dive problems... Of course this was from one guy, but he had the only review. My local GC doesn't carry anything but Corvettes so I can't check it out myself. Anyone had any issues with this? I'm set on a Thumb but I might need to worry if...

OK, I walked in to a Guitar Center with a todler in my arms and a 4 year old in tow to buy a cable and leave. I thought I would stop in tha bass room to check out what they had. They had a 1988 streamer Stage I with a 5 piece wenge neck with I believe maple laminations inbetween the wenge (I...
