neck

This picture looks like it is.

I was hoping to get some answers from the builders on this one: I have an Infinity SN5 from 2005 () that I've been trying to sell (for some reason, it's not working...). Anyway, the only reason I'm not happy with it is because to me, the neck profile is too much of a "U" type, that is, it's...

I am one happy W owner, having a 4 string Infinity ltd. 2000, a Katana NT 4, a streamer stage II 5, and Thumb 6 BO. The Thumb I acquired barely used from a second hand guitar shop in Athens Greece where it was hanging off of a wall stand (the bass' head was the only point held) for perhaps a...

I'm curious - what advantages do having loads of neck laminations (up to 9 according to the custom shop price list) provide, over and above the awesome aesthetic?

Hi all I have a warped neck on my Thumb 4 BO. My G string is riding above the frets nicely, but it takes 2 men and a small boy to fret my E string. My local repair guy tweaked it as best he could, but he said to try talking to Warwick about getting a new neck. Anyone here ever try...

Hey guys, Hopefully someone might be able to help me here; does anyone know where I can buy just a neck? I want to convert my fretted to a fretless but Warwick wont sell me just the neck....any other ideas?

` Anybody tried it ? My main concern is that the truss rod may need to be cranked too much to resist the string tension once there is less wood sharing that load. Specifically, I wanna thin an FNA 5-string neck by at least 1/8" [3mm]. `

Hello, Thumbs that I've owned (4 strings BO and NT) had, less or more, neck diving problem. My last purchase is a 5 NT and I was prepared to fight this a little more than on the 4 strings (but you know, that unique growl is worth any counterpart !!!) The 5 NT is now here, its a 2006 model...

I just got a used rock bass. It had flat wound on it, but slapping, especially higher than fret 12 was almost impossible because the strings seem way too tight and way higher than they should be off the finger board. The truss rod was completely loose and vibrating. I took it to a local shop...

Hi, In the custom shop section would the nockprofil flat neck be the same kind of neck thickness as on my '97 fortress masterman? most of the newer warwicks I have layed have a much larger neck nowadays and I have read that my bass was close to when they stopped making necks this way. I...

i finaly got it ay my ash corvette neck tru i order it today and its on tis way here its navan black i cant wait any one els got one tell me wat u think

Good Evening Friends, I've been looking to add to my wee collection of basses and am currently considering some options for a fretted bass. I'm not much of a fretted player any more, but it's fun to play and I need a fretted bass for every gig and usually every session I do. I Popped in to...

i hear and read people discussing this constantly, which one produces he best sound, it seems that most people think that only a wenge fingerboard (not full wenge neck) takes away what low end the thumb does have ..... just looking for any thoughts.... thanks, mike p

Hey All. Well I just bought my first wick and I love it. I bought a Corvette Std 5 string. This bass is either a 99 or a 2000 not sure which year, or at least the guy I bought it from wasnt sure which year. The thing about this Bass is it seems to have a 4 peice neck! I though all the std...

Hi, I bought a used Warwick Corvette proline Bass a couple of years ago. Serial No:E-000155-92. At the time there was a very slightly raised piece of grain in the middle lamination of the Wenge Neck. I regularly use beeswax to treat both body and neck but in the past few months the raised...

I am looking into purchasing a 2006 Rockbass Corvette classic from a guy on eBay. He mentioned that he altered the neck by inserting a shim for some reason, here's what he wrote: I put a shim under the neck to get a better neck angle because when adjusting the action to a lower setting the...

what is a set neck, is it like a neck thru or bolt on? :?

...

Although someone who would let a Warwick Thumb 5 get a twisted neck should be called 666, I found one on sale for 999. The twist is significant. Has anyone repaired a twisted neck? Can I get a replacement? How much would that replacement be? Is it interchangeable with a Corvette 5 neck...

Check this out. Looks legit but is his repair story BS? When you get a replacement neck don't you have to send your whole bass to Warwick?...
