    When And Why Did Warwick Changed From Wenge To Ovangkol Necks?

    I already play a Warwick Corvette $$ with an ovangkol neck and i actually like also the wenge neck of the Fortess I sold. When did Warwick changed it and why? I already searched for the answer but could not find it. Was it because of money or for any technical reason?

    Wenge Necks

    Hey all, after a trip today to the Warwick dealer here i've decided that I'm getting a Streamer LX4 (the sound is amazing!) and I'm going for a used one. so my question is actually what's the difference between Ovangkol necks and Wenge necks in terms of sound and feel? the streamer i tried...

    Swapping necks - Corvette STD and $$ - Can I do this?

    Are the BO necks on a Corvette $$ and a Corvette Standard interchangeable? Or are the neck pockets different? Cheers, Nigel

    Need to know if necks are interchangeable.

    I have a 2000 FNA jazzman Custom shop with a problematic neck. I just bought a brand new corvette standard for $500. My question is: will the neck from the new vette (Im assuming its a c-shape) fit into the pocket correctly of my Jazzman, even though the JM bass came with the flat profile...

    Swapping necks on my Corvettes

    For months now I’ve toyed with the idea of swapping necks between my fretted $$ and fretless standard Corvettes. I’m very hesitant to give it a try, though - I’ve never removed the neck from any of my basses (or guitars) before, so I don’t know what pitfalls I ought to look out for. I know...

    Info on the new standard "flat" necks wanted...

    Florin, can you give some info about the profile of the new standard necks that will come with all the new basses from now on, as you said on another thread? Do you know any specifications yet? Are they gonna be the same as the previous custom shop option or are these gonna be different. And...

    Finished Necks...

    I'm writing this to get a general consensus from my fellow forumers. I've recently become INFATUATED (to say the least) with the NS designed body, and am looking for a nice Streamer Stage I, Spector NS4CR, or possibly even a Streamer LX Custom. (Which, wouldn't apply to this thread.)...

    Necks again,,,sorry

    Is there any way to know what neck profile is on which bass? does Warwick have a standard that they follow for this? mainly dealing with 4 stringers! the reason I ask is that over the past 6-8 months I have come up on some used Warwick deals. I can check out the local ones but have no way...

    Warwick Necks....

    You know I hear (read) so much about Warwick necks, and to be honset I'm still having trouble getting used to my RockBass's neck. I just really like a smaller neck. Anyway, I have seen alot of people say they just love their wick, but are selling it because of the neck... Anyway, question...

    Fretless necks and other RB mods

    Does anybody know if the necks on all Rockbasses are interchangeable? I ask because I'm looking into buying a RB Vampyre 5 and after listening to some Steve DiGiorgio, I wanted to get a fretless. I know that fretless necks aren't offered with the Vampyres, so I was thinking if they're...

    Do Warwick basses have steel or graphite reinforced necks?

    Im sure they do but cant find any info on this! Sorry for the dumb question! I have an lx custom that is a bolt on so the neck is replaceable but am about to go for a stage 1, and I just want some assurance the neck is gonna be as stable as possible!

    Double Necks

    I just saw thndrstk6's double neck mock up in the moxy wick thread (real beauty by the way), but I figured this was a better place for my question since it really doen't pertain to a warwick. In addition to playing bass, I also play guitar. Actually I normally tell people that I play the 12...

    Replacing Necks?

    Hi guys, I have tried to search to see if this has been discussed before but kept having just too many results so apologies if this has been asked recently. In theory, how easy is it to swap necks over and is it possible to buy just a neck? I am assuming that all model necks would be the...
