    My 'Vette STD is Unslappable

    So I let a buddy of mine borrow my old 4 string bubinga Corvette STD about 6 months ago and I just got it back from him yesterday. While I was playing it for the first time I noticed that I was unable to slap on the open strings. The strings don't hit the frets or something. I get the proper...

    First W Bass: ' Vette Fretless Bubinga

    This is my first step into te W world. I absolutely LOVE this bass. I was litterally IMPRESSED of the quality of Warwick instruments. This bass hasn't even a litte imperfection! Nice finishes, excellent wood, stable neck, ergonomic and well balanced. It's a little heavy compared to a fender jazz...

    hot rodding my vette $$ (pickups)

    im sorta bored with my basses tone, though i should probably blame my cabinets for not being tight as they are sorta old. I was wondering what sorta pickup replacement options are out there for the MEC passives in a $$ to give it a better growl on the low end.

    Stained natural vette $$

    Hey guys, Since a while now, my bass has a stain apparently by the sweat of my hand on a dirty day :(( The dirt was trapped by the waxing, and now I can't get it off. Do you have any tips, or must I mourn over the uncleanable stain in my bass?

    'Vette with Thumb pickup positioning?

    The intro story: I'm thinking of buying a Corvette Bubinga as a backup for my Thumb BO. As far as I can see from specs, they're close up to a point (same neck wood, pickups, body wood of the same family, both BOs); however, I know they don't sound alike...thus, the question: how about a 'Vette...

    Different strings came on my vette

    Though Warwick puts Black Labels on their basses, I recently realized that the strings that came on my 4 string fretless vette (purchased new in January) were different after I bought some Black labels for spares. The current strings are smoother and the gauges are 105-85-70-50 (I miked them). I...

    The sound of a Vette. proline.

    So I've come up with an idea to help anyone who has a question about a certain basses sound and how it compares to another. To help with the idea I'm going to setup these polls that have a scale from 1 to 5. 1 being a hi-fi sound and 5 being a traditional sound. I know you can get a hi-fi or...
