    My Rockbass sounds better than my Wick

    You may have read in another section that I bought a Rockbass Vampyre. I played it with my band last night, well half the band. Competing with a drummer and one guitarist, it performed very well. The first thing my drummer noticed was how much bite there was in the sound. My guitarist...

    Seymour Duncan Basslines SMB-4A in a Wick?

    Hey all. Need some advice on my Taranis... The MEC's provide everything I need in this bass. It's passive and I love it in both my metal bands. The low B is tighter than most 35" scale boutiques I've played. BUT I don't love it in my Blues/Classic rock band. Too "in ya face" and no distorted...

    For my next 'Wick...

    Alrighty - long story short, I'm already scoping out my next axe, and I'm considering a Streamer Jazzman 5, a used SSII 5, and a Corvette $$ 5. My Thumb NT is incredible and my primary player - it has a hugely cutting tone that works well. I view my Corvette as a bass with some healthy mids...

    After a pic of HPW standing on a Wick neck.

    I was browsing TB when I came across a thread discussing Warwicks... nice! It was mentioned a few times in this thread that Warwick necks are prone to snapping in two :shock: Now I recall seeing a pic and a piece of news about HPW balancing/standing on a Warwick neck while it was...

    speed and technique work on the wick

    So I'm learning Knights of Cydonia by Muse (my favorite band). During the first verse, Christopher Wolstenholme plays this (with a pick, but I think fingers sound better for me): I'm having trouble keeping up at 135 bpm. At this point I'm playing middle, index, middle (2,1,2), middle...

    Oh my God! I de-fretted my Wick! (Sound clips ADDED!)

    And it's turning out awesome :D Maybe I went crazy, But I did it... And with very littlechipping :) So I taped everything off, gently pulled the frets up, sanded it all down threw the strings on to test it and it sounds great :) I'm using a mixture of wenge and epoxy to fill the fret...

    Dilemma ... Wick Infinity NT5 Semihollow vs. Ken Smith BSR's

    I'm new to the forum ... and I'm in need of some help here. Here's the deal ... I just sold a Wick Corvette Standard 5, which I loved because of it's bottom ... but the thing was too heavy. I've been looking at the Ken Smith basses, but the thing is ... everyone I know has one. I'm...
