Text in german below. Hey together, I am selling my Streamer LX from 1993, built in Eggolsheim, Germany. I resorted it with historically correct, i got it without pickups and electronics. Concerning to HPW from Warwick it was stolen out of the production. Therefore it was never finished. It...

Hello guys! PRICE: 600EUR each I decided to put for sale following basses: 1. Warwick Corvette Standard (swamp ash). 1998 slim, smooth wenge neck passive/MEC dynamic correction chrome/West Germany hardware has few dings, overall very nice bass I did a little correction to some photos in...

So I got this awesome 2006 Corvette STD 5 with passive MEC DC J pups and the volume drop compared to my '04 $$ 4 is very large, so I wanna throw some active guts in it. I wanna keep the passive pups but install an active preamp, a push/pull volume/preamp bypass pot, pickup pan pot, and a stacked...

Hello, I'm new around here. How are you doing? I own a SSI, 4 string bass and I love it! But there's something that's bothering me since I first played it. The output of the passive position is LOUDER than the active! I already changed the batteries, but, although the sound quality is...

Hey doods, i recntly purchased an old cort steinberger liscenced copy to carry aorund as a travel bass. All in all its a pretty nice bass, nice neck, its a maple NT with Hog wings as far as i can tell, passive P/Js and a bridge liscence by steinberger wich appears to be milled from chunks of...

Hey all I have a Corvette Standard, 5-string Natural Oil finish Bubinga body Ovangkol neck w/Chrome hardware and the passive MEC Dynamic Connection pick ups. the wiring pocket seems plenty big enough to add active circuitry and I remember something about the C-Standard coming with active...

Home recording "extract" ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgX-dCkEAKA Dang ! I should have posted it in "warwick clips" -_-'

I'm about to buy this bass(corvette std ash) , I've tried it and it just sounds good with a lot of character , no need for onboard preamp and no dead-battery-neurosis-syndrome, you plug it and it sounds ..but I often play live and often do recordings .Do you think this bass could fit into this...

Guitar Info: Corvette Standard, 5-string Natural Oil finish Bubinga body Ovangkol neck Chrome hardware Produced: 14/10/2003 Has the original passive MEC pickups. It has recently developed a wicked hum. Changing circuits within my house does not help, in fact hum is still there in a...

I have a 2008 Corvette Standard Fretless that's 100% stock. I love the crusty, raw, aggressive growl of the passive MEC pickups, but the noise makes them unusable in many situations. So, what is my best option for replacing the pickups without losing the character? I don't usually like the...

What are peoples thoughts on the 3 configurations: passive, passive pickups with active elec, fully active ?

I'm new here, & just acquired an RB Corvette, but I cant tell (maybe I havent digged around enough) whether its active or passive? I'm thinking active, on the basis it has a battery compartment & 9v battery, but.. ;) Serial no (if it helps is RB SN M 038889 S 06. No telling letter 'a' there...

Hi, first time post here, I have a Streamer CT that I love but am currently trying to get a passive tone control modded or a preamp with one in it. I stumbled upon a youtube video with a Jazzman that has a nice pre setup. I posted a thread in another forum about it... Saw this youtube vid of...

Well I finally remember my name to long onto these forums again! And I'm getting back into bass for a band that wanted me to play for them. We are about to go into the studio and we have shows booked and have already played the masquerade in Atlanta, GA which is pretty cool! But anyway...I...

Hi All, I have decided to buy a Warwick Corvette Standard in Ash. However, I'm not sure what advantage there will be tonally between having a passive pickup model with passive electronics or the passive pickups with the selectable active/passive electronics. My other basses are a Fender MIA...

Do any of you guys now if it is possible/easy to upgrade a passive Warwick to active? I'm thinking of buying a second hand Corvette Standard 5 passive for cheap and then upgrading it to active later on. Any thoughts? I assume I could just go straight to MEC and order the preamp etc. Dave

Hey guys, I've been trying to get my slap technique sorted on my passive fortress but I can't quite get the right tone out of the bass. Any suggestions on how best to set up the tone controls and head (profet 3.2)? I was listening to some TM Stevens stuff and I know that he's got the 3 band...

Hey all, been a while! I was wondering if anyone had any leads on good full range passive pickups that would fit in place of jazz bass pickups. I was looking at these, but I don't know if they would fit in a five string bass (most of you know the drill- warwick five string corvette...

Can anyone tell me what a pair of passive "J" MEC pups out of a 2004 Corvette STD might be worth. I have someone interested in buying them from me and I don't have a clue as what they are worth. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi all, I wonder if anyone else has noticed a problem with the vol pot on their passive bass. Mine dosn't seem to kick in until almost full on so there isn't much room for subtle changes mid song. Is this a common problem with passive pots or do I have a fault?. The bass is a Corvette St...
