    I need a new neck....

    Hi everyone, this is my first post to this forum. I have a standard 4 string Corvette with a warped neck, so I am looking for a replacement. Mine is Oviknol with wenge fretboard. Where do I find one, and how much should I expect to pay for a straight neck? Thanks, Koy Carson West...

    Replacement Neck

    How hard and approx. how much would it be to get a replacement neck for a Corvette Standard? The neck I would need to replace is a fretless neck, however the replacement wouldn't have to be fretless. Basically, I am thinking about bidding on a Corvette Standard Bubinga body. The guy is...

    Custom bass - warping neck

    Hi, A question that has been covered here many times but I'm not sure what my next point of call should be. My much anticipated custom LX arrived about three weeks ago and I noticed that the next was slightly warping in - more than the usual amount. So for the past three weeks Ive...

    Neck / nut / bridge adjustments after tuning down to C?

    I’m in desperate need for some expert advice here! I’m going to be auditioning for a gig later this week and the band has given me explicit guidance to tune down each string of my bass 2 whole steps (ie., E string down to C). I did this on my 4-string Corvette $$ (which was set up...

    double neck

    I have a quick question. In the 90's I got a warwick book from a local music store and in the custom shop pics in the back there was an image of a guy with a doubleneck neck through thumb bass. I was curious, can this still be done? If so I would love a double neck thumb 5 fretless on top and...

    This is a bit of a strange request but how wide is an NT thumb's neck when its going through the body. (an old wenge/bubinga thumb) And wide are each of the laminates? I should probably explain I'm trying to find out for the bass I'm building as my first neck twisted(due to English...

    new neck

    so the neck on my 2002 BO Thumb 5 string is twisted... A luthier in town will 'try' to straighten it for about $100. I say try because he normally works on acoustic 6 string guitars and his setup may not be large enough for a bass neck...(sigh)... Is it possible to replace (for a fee of...

    Corvette standard warped neck

    My corvette standard has a warped neck. It has always had one and I know it won't be covered under warranty. I didn't complain about it when I should have. Also, the bass "clacks" when I play fast on one note. I've taken it in and the only help I've got, has been to shave the frets to compensate...

    Replacement neck for Streamer STD.

    Hi folks. Have a Streamer Std with a twisted neck. Rather than go for a redress I would prefer to get a new neck. I know it seems like a lot of fuss for a relatively cheap bass, but I have added active electronics to it and it has been a dream to play. It would be a shame to ditch it for...

    Flat c neck option still not available for short scales (?).

    I play short scale basses only. The reason for a "thinner" neck for shortscale players, is obvious i believe. This is an option i kept asking and asking from Warwick. Since its allready available for 34" scale necks why not for short scales ? I know that it will become available eventually, as i...
