sound

I just got my first Rockbass and I want to acquire equipment to go w/ it that will bring out the best. We have an overall sound system for our band. The speakers are JBLs :? (perhaps you have mixed feelings about that) , but the system includes subs. My question is, do I need to purchase a...

I thought you'd be interested in the following sound files as I recorded the same song with both basses. I'm recording an album with my band 300ft Gorilla at the moment, and I recorded the whole thing on my Thumb NT. However, I needed to re-record this track for timing issues so thought I'd try...

Hello chaps ! Sorry for this crappy topic, but I was wondering what bass player has THE Warwick tone, THE Warwick sound... I mean: for you !!! If you take all the famous bass players playing on Warwicks, some have a very Warwicky sound, some don't (depending on the way they are...

I'm interested in upgrading my amp to a Warwick setup but my local retailers haven't got the stock for me to try out. They'll order it in but i'd like to hear what kind of sounds you can get out of a Tubepath before I go for the plunge. Anyone out there got some MP3 samples? Bass on its own...

Been to SC Salford today to decide which was the bass for me. They had a good selection and basically set me up with an amp so I could try what I like. Good service. Problem is with my £1000 budget I've decided that I'm a neck thru man - played them for many years and a bolt-on doesn't feel...

I've seen a promising Thumb V Fretless BO that I can afford. My only problem with this for me is that I may feel it's a poor relation next to my fretted NT (no offence meant to BO owners) Is it a completely different sound and feel on the BO guitars? It seems to have identical MEC pickups and...

Sorry if it's been done before, but I thought it would be nice to get sound clips up of our beauts under our own fingers :wink: Lets here them sexy beasts roar! :twisted:

Hi there, I purchased a Warwick Corvette FNA Jazzman 5 a few months back. I was wonderng if i could receive some help on tone. ANy suggestions on the EQ for dialing in a clean yet gut wrenching tone? And when I slap it seems to be lacking that "slap omphhh" I don't know what I'm doing wrong...

Guys, I'm really in love with Stage II sound, I like the growl and I'd be about to buy one if were not for the string spacing that I might find a bit too narrow. I'm after a 5 string and I'd like to check also the Stage I out, since I undertstant it has a broader neck (19 mm, right?). I'd...

That is, if I got a custom Streamer, a Corvette and a Thumb with the same features (woods, pickups etc), would there be any difference in sound?

I have noticed that my G-string dies quite quickly on my bass, in a matter of weeks I think about 2months if i am lucky which means I have to change my strings again. I use DR low-riders 45-130. can any one help?

check it out on comments/criticisms etc welcomed

Has anyone ever changed or add other electronics to their warwick's ? I just added A passive tone to my active streamer jazzman and its grate ! :D

I'm thinking of replacing the stock MEC's with Bartolini pups on my Vette. There are 3 variations of the J-bass in the Bart catalog... any suggestions, please ?

Ok, I have some questions on the Corvette FNA Jazzman with the coil split switch. I don't really care about the 2004 LTD. I have not seen any in person. I have tried reading some of the reviews and searching the boards to get a feel for what they sound like. 1. Can they sound like a...

I was thinking about a thread where we can post links to websites of bands that have a warwick playing bassist.I wanted to make sure its cool with the mods first though.Whatta ya's reckon? greg.

Does anyone have warwick corvette in swamp-ash sound samples? I am interested in hearing some sound samples by fingerstyle, pick, slap and all pickup positions on this bass. Just want to see how different does it sound against my bubinga pommele corvette. I don't know any music stores...
