i think many people would agree that warwicks are some of the best basses out there. They have great craftsmanship and have great tone, so why is there no thread for warwick? _________________ While sitting on my huge leather arm chair watching tele i realized how marvolous it would be to be a warewolf |

Only two people here have them . But yes, I like them, there's one calling for me at the local shop, but I don't have $900 to blow on another piece of gear. |

The answer to your question is......
I dunno.
Warwicks are cool.
I tried a set of warwick strings once and the kicked but!!!! I could make it sound like I was slapping the thing just by getting a little aggressive playing finger style!
If there basses are anything like those strings were, I'd look at getting one. But I always get confused between Warwick and Washburn! _________________ Alright!

No such prob for me, I have a Washburn (and love it) but would REALLY love a Warwick, except in Blighty they cost a bleeding fortune, one day...............
Also, I'd like a Fender American Jazz, a 4x10 to go with my MAX 450 head and 1x15, also fancying a double bass.................. _________________ Washburn XB500

He he he he he he.... I guess GT has a point.
In looking at it stats wise, forums like Ibanez and Fender aren't the most popular, so you'd probably find any new ones would be met with the same popularity issues.
Gotta go.... _________________ Alright!

Also, there would be jerks like me posting about how they think Warwicks have stupid-looking bodies with stumpy little horns sticking out of them.
Someone would certainly describe them as "wooden-ameobas" at some point, then all the Warwick players would get angry and say, "You suck!" and then he would reply and say, "That's your opinion and this is mine" and the he would give the finger to his computer which wouldn't have any effect since they couldn't see it then they would say, "We sure got him because he hasn't replied" which he did just not on the computer which would create confusion and a long discussion about whether flipping someone off is good etiquette even if they don't see it or know that it happened.
This is only the beginning of the problems a Warwick forum would cause. See what I mean? |

For the record, I think flipping people the bird is acceptable. It's a great way to say what you mean without being overly offensive. If their was a Warwick thread that encouraged bird flipping, I'd post there. _________________ Alright!

Warwicks are nice indeed but theyre expensive.. i was lucky enough to get a good deal on my dolphin so i could afford one after selling my bike..
Though i feel im not really good enough to own such a fine instrument cant wait to try it with my EBS octave pedal.. gonna try make a bass solo with it, in my new band
Messy post but.. ill post anyway _________________ Warwick Dolphin SN5 TCS
