    Tone control is not working properly on Corvette

    I've tried sending a message to support using the form on the Warwick site many times, but I never get a confirmation that it went through and haven't yet received a reply, so I'm posting here. Please help. Just picked up a used '01 Corvette Standard Fretless the other day. The first control...

    Tone control on a Corvette Standard Fretless?

    Just picked up a used '01 Corvette Standard Fretless yesterday. The first control closest to the neck is the volume, then the pickup pan control, then a tone control? When I turn the tone control all the way down, it shuts off the output from the bass just like a volume control. I also can't...

    Thumb Tone

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eN0UCD-xbug Ok so whenever i play a thumb nt at a guitarcenter or wherever, its sounds really really dull, like a Squier P bass. But my question is how does that sound come out of a thumb, the noise at around 2:30. * ok so let me revise my statement...

    How would you get this fretless tone?

    I would assume it's mostly achieved by playing near the bridge, but how would you EQ it? I also know fretless is a whole different monster, would most of the tone be attributed to style (playing it like a fretless rather than like a fretted)?

    What do you think effects tone the most on a bass?

    Do body woods really effect the tone on NTs Since the the neck goes all the way through the body. I can't imagine the two pieces of wood on the sides would effect the sound considering they aren't even in the strings sound path. I can see the neck woods and the fretboard woods effecting the...

    That Modern Tone...

    So, I've seen a lot of topic discussion resulting in Warwick's tone being debated. Or, would it be better to say, the many basses' tone of Warwick being debated. Hi-Fi. Modern. Classic. Phat. These are all terms we use to describe the tone of a bass guitar. Albeit this is a Warwick...

    I am completely in love with Kyle Sanders' tone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sPdx2ZjCW4 I know he's using a Corvette std Bubinga going through ampeg SVTs, no idea about the head. Any tips on how to get a similar tone (boosting low/high mids, treble ect?). It'll be awkward to try and...

    Your favourite tone woods, and their unmusical applications?

    What are some strange places you've seen exotic woods used? I normally can't imagine wenge or ebony being used for anything else outside of a musical instrument, but that's probably where I desire them most. Here there is some wenge, blood wood, and zebra wood in a set of drawers. It's...

    Improving the tone of the low B?

    Hey all, I've got a 2000 Infinity which I love to bits - the versatile tone and feel are amazing, however I've struggled to get a good sound with the B string. I've played around with different strings and still not been happy with the sound.Its hard to explain but it sounds like...

    The WFSE Thumb NT 5, part 15, Tone Chambers...

    It's a brand new Custom Shop option, might as well see if we want to use it! Do we add tone chambers to our already awesome instrument? It might be interesting to add to the resonance of all those nice woods! :) Then again, our dark and growly beast can stay dark, growly, and heavy, and...
