    Show me your refin'ed Warwick Thread

    Hey Matthew 84-My LX body was 3 pieces of a nice pale wood. Carolena possibly? It didn't look all that bad natural, but I had it repainted flat white nitro because I have an artist friend who will be doing some custom artwork on it. Think "Stu Zender's painted indian motif mixed in with a dia de...

    Show me your refin'ed Warwick Thread

    I had my rockbass streamer LX refinished in white nitro. Very flat, very thin. Contemplating doing an amber tinted top coat or having an artist custom paint "dia de los muertes " style.

    Playing my first 6-string gig tonight!

    Sorry about the delayed response-gig went well. The high C tripped me up a little bit due to muscle memory on 4s and 5s but it opened up a lot of doors musically. I've been playing it on the last 4 or 5 gigs. Including tonights little throw together trad/blues gig. Practice makes perfect ( or...

    Playing my first 6-string gig tonight!

    Well, I play several times a week down here as a working musician. Mostly limited to my old 70s Pbass or a Warwick 4 or 5, but tonight I got a wild hair (hare) and decided to borrow my friends Tobias Pro series Korean 6-string from the '90s. Its a beautiful axe with incredible construction...

    How many of us GIGGING bassists use pedals?

    I gig anywhere between 5-8 times a week. The only pedal that's aways in my gig bag is my old school BOSS OC-2 octave. And i really only use that for one band.

    Any strip their Rockbass Streamer?

    I also have a streamer LX rockbass-5-string version in gloss black. Great axe for the money.

    Any plans for a Rockbass version Thumb Bass?

    I am having it done professionally by a luthier friend. I think the body wood may be carolena-it's reasonably soft. The butterscotch nitro isn't a translucent, more of an "opaque" so im not really concerned with the quality of the grain. Do a search in the forums here for finish removal.

    Any plans for a Rockbass version Thumb Bass?

    I've been playing my 2011 Streamer LX 5 Rockbass ( which is about to get a nitro butterscotch blonde refinish:cool:) a lot over the last couple years and am amazed at the quality and versatility. With the growing selection of the Warwick Rockbass line, are there plans for a Rockbass Thumb in the...
