setup

Hi, I just changed the strings and tried to setup the intonation. New E string is giving me problems, it's sharp on the 12th fret, so I moved the saddle backward. The problem is that the saddle is back all the way now and that damn E string is still sharp... what will I do now?

Hello, everybody. We are trying to record demo at home. I need help. I Can't find optimal height for pickups for Corvette $$ 5 str. And I'am absolutly don't know how to record my bass (directly to soundcard or from combo, with preamp or in passive mode ........) to get the best results.

Hmm ok well I've been trying to set up my bass for months now and I'm still having issues. I just can't seem to work out I'm doing wrong could some on maybe attempt to point it out. I've read Seths topic on the subject and although informative I'm slightly confused by one or two things...

Can anyone advise as to what specifications are used for the initial setup of a Thumb NT 5? Mainly looking for details on neck relief and action. (Specifically how they are measured and what values they're calibrated to.) I've been tweaking the setup on my Thumb NT5 quite a bit and I'd like...

Well I've been trying to set up my bass for almost 2 months now with little to no success so I have decided I'm just going to have to pay to have it done. So where is the best place?

Greetings! I decided to change the gauge of strings (Higher, 045 to 135) in my streamer jazzman, so i move a little clockwise the trussrod to maintain the height that I had with the 040. The neck is perfect straight from the fret 24 until 7, but from 7 until JAN begins a sort of downward curve...

So I wanted to start a topic where everyone can share what they use on their live and recording set ups to add that extra touch on their bass sound. Aside from using a Warwick, which already gives us that amazing sound, what other equipment do you use? Any DIs, compressors, pre-amps, etc. What...

I am in the process of setting up my Thumb 5 and during rehearsal last night I noticed that fretted notes on the A string have a lower output than all other. I have adjusted both pickup heights and can't seem to get the A string any louder in relation to the other strings. Neck relief is at...

Hi folks, I just got my brand new Corvette $$ 5 BO and I'm totally happy with it. I played around with the sound options a little bit and my favorite setup so far is: - all passive - neck pup serial - bridge pup parallel - pup pan middle or a little emphasis of the bridge pup I...

After having bought a used bass I will have to clean it and put new strings on. Now I wonder in which way the setup after cleaning it would be the correct one. You can adjust the truss rod, the bridge, the saddle, .... Which one should be set up first, which one second and so on? I...

Hello warwick family. My name is mike and i currently own a 06 Modded Corvette Std, Having a little trouble getting nice buzz free low action after a string change.... any recomendations for a good set-up?

I followed Seth Horan’s setup directions to a “T” and my 5-string Corvette now plays perfect! For me, venturing into truss rod adjustments was no man’s land but with his superb instructions I emerged unscathed and very happy…thanks Seth! Now I’m wondering what I ought to do to properly setup...

A friend of mine (user name Baragan) brought his Corvette $$ to me for a setup. I couldn't get a decent tight low B, even with new EMP's... Then I've noticed that the strings were not aligned with the poles. I changed the string position ( thank you Warwick for this amazing...

After recently acquiring a Corvette standard 5 that had the infamous broken JAN II. I finally received the JAN III replacement from DBG(six days, not bad) I have been able to set the "Vette" up properly for the 1st time, Man, Warwick sure didn't miss anything when they designed these bridges, I...

Hi Forum. I just recieved my 4 string Dirty Blonde. I'm loving it actually. But the action is very low and I'm wondering whether there is a default setup that Warwick does at the Factory. I bought the bass from a dealer in Mississippi, here in the U.S. Thanks for any information you may...

If anyone has had experience with both the MEC passive Jazzman setup (streamer or Corvette Jazzman models) and also the MEC active Jazzman setup (as on the 04 Ltd and infinity models) could you please give me an idea of the tonal differences between these two setups? I really like the zingy...

for the past 7 months, i've been using a peavey tnt 115 as my main gigging amp, and it sounds great, but lugging that 90 lb. "bookshelf" (as my band dubbed it) around its getting to be a killer, espeically up and down tight stairways. now i dont mind the weight at all, its the just pure bulk...

okay i dont usually change the setup on my basses when i get them from the factory because they are usually perfect action for me... and im afraid to blow it. But the warwicks adjusting system seems to be very easy to accomidate inexperience... So im thinking of changing to drop C setup... so e...
