Sorry I don't have a pic at the moment, but has anyone experienced warping on their Thumb bass 6-string bridge? I'm looking at mine now (removed from the bass), and the bottom of the bridge is not flat; it's concave i.e., the middle of the bridge is lower than either the bass or treble end and it rocks on a flat surface. Time to get a new bridge? By the way, has anyone dealt with Korg Canada (our current Warwick dealer?)- I'm waiting to hear back from them about getting a new bridge. Thanks, wemedge
Can anyone tell me whether their Warwick 6-string bridge sits flat with regards to the bottom surface? Thanks! Just want to make sure mine is off before I put in an order for a new one. Many thanks again.
that is strange-that wouldn't be an issue unless you slammed it right down to the base plate. I have had 5 warwicks and I find that quite often the G string side of the bridge needs to touch down for correct action. hope you are liking the bass when I order parts I call the warwick custom shop in new York-ask for dan
Thanks much! Yes, I like the bass. I defretted it, and am pleased with that. Used binding material from Stew-Mac to fill in the slots. I don't mind getting a new bridge at all, parts wear out or go bad some time or another. Just wanted to check first. Yeah, the bridge is convex. I'm looking at it now. If I can, will order Warwick's new brass bridge and see what it's like.
Will do, after I the new bridge gets here. Opted for the cast bridge; the brass one costs too much for me.
