Hi all, I would really appreciate any comments on photo attached. Tasmanian Myrtle. species Nothofagus Cunningham. Pink to deep red in colour. Add about 700 kg/m3. Popular in Australia for solid body guitars. Cheers Robert.

Here is a widescreen (1280x800) wallpaper I made that features three of my natural wood (Bubinga and Boire) Warwick beauties. This is the Sound and Look of Wood! Click on the link below the thumbnail to download the full size wallpaper:

I don't know if this has been asked yet, But does anyone know if Warwick will do a fretless with something other than ebony? Say maybe wenge or even purpleheart? It would be pretty nice if they would offer other woods for the board and apply an epoxy finish themselves, seeing how it's not...

Well, I just tried getting a quote for a CS Corvette NT, and the response I got back from Bass Central is that Warwick wouldn't build it the way it was quoted. :( I tried ordering it with a Black Walnut Burl top, Walnut body, and Wenge neck (I have another bass like this and really like...

Hi, i am thinking about ordering a SSI 6string. I am sure that the fingerboard will be birdseye maple. The top should be of a bright colour too. Now comes my question : What type of neck wood and body wood will suit best the maple board (to get the sound i want)? The music i want to play with...

Interesting read for all you wood aficionado

Not only is my warwick a great sounding piece of timber, but I am also the best smelling musician in the band :D I have started waxing wih beeswax which smells of lemon, add to that the lemon oil on the fretboard and it smells lovely, makes a change from sweaty drummers sticnking the place...

I was hoping to darken my ovangkol thumb 5 string a bit. The more I lemon oil it...the darker it seems to get, but I would like to darken it more, close to black without staining it. Any suggestions?

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? We all know this silly tonge twister. But the real question is how much old-growth lumber does it take to satisfy the ever popular Sound of Wood, annually? I have read that wenge, bubinga, ovangkol, ebony, ect all come from...

As seen in the Warwick.de news, is now available a new wood! "Tineo" someone knows anything about this wood? tonal characteristics? weight? appearance?

Does anyone have information about Carolena ?? It is used for the Rockbass Streamer, and the discontinued Warwick Streamer Standard, but I can't find any information about this wood on the internet..............Latin name, density, strength ?? Cheers. :D

hey i play metal and jazz i was wondering if the AA maple wood on the body of the streamer LX would give me a nice metal growl, but also allow me to have a nice clear jazz tone? would it allow that kind of versatility? thanks sorry if this has been covered

Hi, I've been teasing Gregory lately so much, that this time I decided to make my question in here and hear your opinions as there's so much expertise on woods within this forum members. I've been planning my next 5-str Corvette for a while and I just can't make up my mind. I wouldn't like...

So sometime this summer, I'll be acquiring a very vintage classical guitar that once belonged to my great grandfather. Everyone expects he may have gotten it around the 1930s, and that sounds about right. Anyone willing to bet how it may sound? It has the same (well, five of six) strings that...

I am talking about the natural oil finish /open grain wood found on SS2, Thumb, or Dolphin waxing, oil that cure, or not ... options and more options ... i know our warwick owner's manual recommonds waxing; but this one comment, which I read and heard on many many occation, continues to...

Heya Guys This is my '93 bolt on streamer. I've had this bass for around 8 years now, and it's by far my favourite. Until recently I was under the impression that this is a maple streamer, but in the past year, I've heard countless speculations on what it is (ranging from cherry to...

I know that Warwicks have always been known for their growl...but inevitably that sound seems to often come from the bathroom not long after I plug in. Whenever I practice with my band the guitar player always has to take a break 10 mins. after we start and blames it on the bass "loosining...

hey there folks, i was wondering how to calculate the prices for the topwood if the standard model is let's say bubinga already and not ash... the other way round, what if the standard body is ash already and i wanted different woods for backside and top. how do i go about it? thanks
