scale

Call me dumb for asking this question, but will DR strings FIT on a warwick? I have a 34" scale corvette $$, but when I buy D'Addarios, I have to buy SUPER long scale since the strings' taper needs to clear the nut, and the bridge adds to the required length. Is this the case for DR's? I'd love...

So I just got a good deal on a 5 string corvette $$, but after I bought it I realized fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu it's 34" scale....is there any place I can buy a 35" neck? :xI feel like such an idiot for not realizing this or checking before hand. the bass kicks ass either way, but 35" plays and...

I read on an advertisement in my "Bass Player" magazine that Warwicks are now available in different scales. Does this mean that they are standard options now and not custom shop options? That would be great! My first bass was a 35'' scale. It sounded great but was too hard to play...

Hi all, In my 4 1/2 years experience of playing bass, through my theory ive learnt a lot of scales (im currently learning different modes of scales). What ive noticed is that instead of learning the actual notes of a specific scale, ive memorized positions and usually only one position for...

I'm interested in getting a Corvette std fretless 5 string and noted 3 different scale options: extra long 35 inch, standard 34 in., and medium 32 in. My fretless Corvette 4 string has a standard 34 inch scale. What would be the advantage or difference of the extra long or medium scale in...

Ok so I've been doing research on diminished scale theory and I feel like I'm going in circles. I know there are "half whole" dim scales and "whole half" dim scales. I know that there are "half" dim scales (with a circle and slash symbol) and "whole" dim scales (with a circle symbol). I know...

Is it possible to get a Buzzard BO 35" scale with the hook headstock? I noticed all the ones with the hooked one, Strykers and Buzzards, are NT, but the price list says for a 35" scale you need BO construction.

hello out there fellow low-enders! I have a 5 string fna jazzman which I plan on stringing up with Black Labels. The DR brand tapered low B does not seat immediately after the saddle. It extends too far , causing it to sound "floppy." My question is this....assuming Black Labels contain the...

Wondering if anyone here has a 30in scale thumb? Or has played on? I'm looking at shortscale fretless basses now... I wen't to the far extreme of big basses... Now how about something small? :D I won't have the money for a few months but I'm trying to decide now. With my tendonitis giving...

why not!?

Hi all you warwick lovers! :) Im planning to buy a new bass guitar since my washburn broke down. The only thing is that i dont know if i want a short or medium scale due to ive got really small hands and it is really uncomfortable to play on long scale, esspeacily on squier , fender...

Anyone got a custom Warwick with a short-scale? I'm curious as to how much difference it makes to the sound; can I have a Warwick that thuds like a Hofner or a Gibson EB-3?

Show it if you have a pic of one :)

Just got a response from the custom shop telling me that a short scale neck is not possible with the new neck profile option.Someone have to choose between the shorter scale and the flatneck option on a 34" scale. Why ? :(

I've read elsewere in this forum that a 5-string 30" shortscale(E-C tuning) is available through the CS . Is this true? I thought that a 30" scale is available only as a 4-string. Anyone...?

After sitting on the fence about buying a warwick for many years,My prayers have been answered! I am going to order a $$ in Nirvana black,with The broadneck option an in the 35 inch scale I so sorely want! Thanx warwick!

Has anyone out there seen and/or played a 30 or 32 inch scale Warwick bolt on? Just curious as to how they play and sound. Thanks, Tom

What is the scale of Warwick Streamer LX - 5 strings ? Is 34" or 35" ? I'm asking that because i want to buy some strings and i don't know waht scale to choose: long scale or extra long scale.

Hello, does anybody know if Warwick constructs shorter scale instruments? I am interested in a 32" 5string Corvette Ash. If yes, would that be considered a custom (more expensive) instrument? Do you think the shorter scale would compromise the sound? I am also concerned about the possibility of...
