I have a feeling you might have been expecting something else. Short story, putting the flats on my ESP the A and G tuners were stripped out. So...I have a two string bass for the moment. But I compensated.

[lemoley]

wow that looks really nice man, congrats

hope you enjoy it ;)

[eriatarka]

Nice Bass!

[rik]

Beautiful. How much?

[Tryxx]

$975, with new flatwounds and the guy threw in a six pack set of D'Addario's. :cool:

That's with tax, too.

[Sade]

Let me guess, you parents payed for it.


Makes me sick.

[sixner]

omg, it's beautiful....... the entire rig... im jealous..

Weren't you selling that Phaser like.. forever ago? i remember being interested but no money....

-sixner

[Tryxx]

Let me guess, you parents payed for it.

Parent, singular. I'm paying her back half after Christmas.

[sixxbassist90]

[Left Shoe]

[Sade]

[SLIPKNOTwolfman]

[SLIPKNOTwolfman]

WAIT WAIT WAIT! warwick for sale? !!! u have my attention! what model and how much r u asking?

[bass&cookies]

thats the one kind of warwick i really like... also my favorite fretless

[Chris K]

Tryxx, I'm so glad to see you finally got a Corvette!

[Sade]

I wonder what goes through your mother's skull-buying you over 10,000 dollars worth of equipment.

How do you even appriciate it? Makes no sense to me.


Seriously, that pisses me off. Lazy assholes with no work ethic getting everything they want because their parents invested in some fast food company in the 90's and made a whole lot of money.

[Tryxx]

Oh noes! Well forgive me, you OBVIOUSLY deserve it.

Get a job, dickweed.

That was the whole deal buying the bass. Get a job after Christmas, pay half back, otherwise she's pawning it or something.

[basgitarist]

nice bass :thumb: now let us see the one you abused and sent to hell :evil:

[Chaos]

Well, this is the first warwick I've ever seen that makes me want one bad.

[irishslappop]

i wish i could just magically aquire all the best equipment in the world without having to work for it. but i cant so off to starbucks i go!

that is the only warwick i want. all the other dont appeal to me in any way

[Tryxx]

She hasn't paid for over $10,000 worth of equipment.

$400 for the Mesa
$200 for the Epi
$3,000 for the Modulus. (Graduation present.)
$556 for the Michael Kelly. (Birthday present.)

[Sade]

Do you just go up to her and ask:

"Oh Gee mom, want to throw down a thousand buckaroo's on some bass I want out of momentary aquisition syndrome?"

"Sure son, just be sure to pay me back without ever having a job, ever! Lawl!"

you have 5 basses :amaze: ? give me your mom.

[ToolBox]

Nice, like really nice. I want to play that :P You know what that means.

[Tryxx]

It's not exactly like that, but close enough. She says "roffle" instead of "lawl."

But, I digress. Sade, sorry to say, but here's your warning. I'm going to point out that our unbanning was conditional - if you goes back to the way you were, the ban comes back. If you carey on, that's that.

There's been note of a few complaints. I really don't give a **** right now, but eh, keep it in mind. :thumb:

[sixner]

hell of a grad. present.
sounds like you got a sweet collection though...
-sixner

[basgitarist]

when I graduated I got 100 euro's and was happy like a puppy sniffing another puppy's ***. Íf my mother gave me 3000 bucks I'd think she'd be drunk :)

id say tryxx deserves it, hes a great guy.

[Tryxx]

Thanks, Phil. I'm VERY happy.

[basgitarist]

@Tryxx

Why do you need 5(?) basses. Don't you feel like you have the tendency to allways play the same one, just because you love it more? I understand the whole frettles/fretted thing. But what would you need the rest for except maybe one having sentimental value cause it's your first. Not trying to diss you or anything, just curious :thumb:

[I play that funky music]

Awsome bass. I wouldnt mind having a fretless myself.

[Tryxx]

Nope, not really. I have the 8 string, the acoustic, the now defretted 4, the 6 string, and this fretless. So I give them all their love.

I forgot to mention, I played a fretless Quantum 5, it was sex.

[mastrrbasser]

GAHH!! if i didn't just make a 1000 dollar insurance payment i'd be all over that.


EDIT: nearly forgot, congrats tryxx. Enjoy.

[Teh Glees0rz]

I wish my mum could cough up huge amounts of cash on demand. :lol:

Corvettes are so splooge-tastic. They're the only Warwicks I like the look of, apart from the Limited Edition Infinity :naughty:

I think I'll have to save up for a Corvette Standard. They tend sell for less than £700 in most places. :thumb:

[mastrrbasser]

I've seen worse guys. Tryxx said he was going to pay back and you should take his word for it. I mean it's not liek his parents spoil him with bass gear and he sucks and/or just smashes them and asks for more. Im one for buying your own gear, but if his parents are THAT supportive then let it be.

I bought my own car, all of my music equipment, pay for my bass lessons, and my auto insurance. I just dropped a thousand into my insurance fund and paid 90 dollars a few days ago for my bass lessons. I know where you guys are coming from, but lay off a little bit. If his parents like to see him happy and support him, let them do so.

[sixner]

^indeed. It would be nice to get that kind of support from parent's. but to each their own... no need to get riled up about it.

sometimes i work so much that i'm too tired to play bass. That's the sad thing :upset: . I fell asleep on my futon while playing earlier today(i had the morning shift at dunkin' donuts [6 a.m. till 12:30]). I wake up an hour and a half earlier than that so i don't fall asleep at the wheel when i'm heading to work. So i was up at 4:30 this morning. Basically i wake up at 5:30 on school days, and wake up at 4:30 on weekends. In theory, i actually get to sleep in on school days. :upset:

OK...I am not kidding, here: Anyone else who comments on Tryxx's mother's support of his music WILL get a 3 day ban, OK? She's a wonderful lady (met her at Berklee), so stop saying Tryxx is a spoiled brat and/or saying his mom is an idiot. The only reason I'm stepping in here is because if Tryxx takes mod action, he'll be labeled a horrible mod for doing it out of his own "personal interest." Let's stay on topic and refrain from insulting users, OK? That goes to BOTH sides of users, here, OK (those for and against his mother's purchase).

No comments on this post, either, OK? I'm serious. Read it and pretend you didn't read it after...unless its the part below this. :lol:

Let's be civil, OK guys? Thanks. :)

By the way, Tryxx, nice bass. I love Warwicks, and I love fretlesses, but I don't liek Corvette fretlesses...ack. Something about them just feels wrong. :upset:

im going to defy you and comment to your post. I'm neutral on the subject. I work hard for what i have, and his mom most likely works hard to make her son happy. I'm glad to hear that, but it's not my thing.

[mastrrbasser]

Can...can I have a Stawberry Coolata? That's all we had at Berklee...


(f)uck you. :lol:

i have so many stories about idiot customers. Seriously, i can make an encyclopedia. I just did some math out. One guy gets so much coffee, it adds up to 3500 dollars a year. If he bought bags of coffee and made his own e wuld only spend about 450 dollars. he looks like a rat, we call him rat man behind his back. anywho, the warwick is sex.

[ViolenceBass]

Can...can I have a Stawberry Coolata? That's all we had at Berklee...
It makes sense to me. If you go to normal college, your going to need a car. That would prob be my grad present. If i go to Berkley, your going to need music equipment, and the modulus/mike kelly are going to help you get through Berkley.

Plus, Tryxx is from Texas, and us Southerners have wonderful mums :thumb:

[Wintermute]

Well... that's not what I expected to see!

There was me expecting a defretted ESP with two broken tuners... :lol:

To be honest, I'm not sure how wise it is spending nigh on a thousand dollars on a fretless, as they don't suit a lot of people. Still, to look at it another way, that's one hell of a starting fretless!

[ViolenceBass]

Oh and i forgot to mention your bass, i played a similar model back a while and it became the reason i love fretless basses, and have wanted one ever since. So Congrats!

[naut]

so stop saying Tryxx is a spoiled brat and/or saying his mom is an idiot.

well, to be fair, no one called her an idiot.;)

[naut]

us Southerners have wonderful mums :thumb:

not quite.

[doodooking]

i dont think my mom would give me, or even lend me $900 all at once, ever, or atleast until i graduate college, but then i wont need that money since i'll have a job. god, only 2 more years of college, i want a new bass now...

[naut]

Why do you need 5(?) basses.

meh, i have 5, and i play all of them except for one. (which is only because it can't be played).

[ViolenceBass]

not quite.
Me and Tryxx do

(now realizes your also from texas)

[naut]

i live in Texas. i also know PLENTY of people who have terrible mothers/parents.

[trumpeter]

my parents have payed zero dollars toward my bassing :(


they think its a lesser instrument than trumpet.

[Wintermute]

My parents have contributed... £85 for a practise amp. Which was a Christmas present. I've paid for my own gear, by and large. There is a certain satisfaction to it, but I'd be lying if I said I'd turn down free stuff.

Still, I can't complain since they're paying my rent at Uni.

corvette proline 4 string in ocean blue 700 + shipping, but since were both in ohio im not sure thats going to be a big fee for you

How much for shipping to the UK?

What's the string spacing? I'm very intersted btw.

[LewsTherin]

My parents have bought:

Amps ($250 USD on sale)($80 practice amp)($70 guitar practice amp)
Hollowbody Guitar ($380)
First Bass ($180)
Distortion Pedals (2x $80)
Plus strings and stuff all the time

[mastrrbasser]

my first bass was 260 dollars and it was an xmas present. MY parents only give me 100 dollars so had to pay 160 for my own xmas present.

[Wintermute]

Actually, my parents did offer to buy me my first bass for christmas - but I had the money together to buy it myself in August, and I didn't want to wait.

[dragonzmad]

Do you just go up to her and ask:

"Oh Gee mom, want to throw down a thousand buckaroo's on some bass I want out of momentary aquisition syndrome?"

"Sure son, just be sure to pay me back without ever having a job, ever! Lawl!"

I don't have the testicles to ask anyone in my family to buy me a mim fender, let alone a high end bass. I could only imagine the responses I'd get. "hell no......"

you know why right? the donuts are made the day before by a bunch of dirty portugese dudes who don't wash their hands or wear gloves when they knead the dough. The stores are in milford but the donuts are made in shelton. Theyare shipped over with trucks and they are then frosted at the stroes. we only get one production during the day, so what we put out in the morning is basically what we have for the day. My store used to be the central bakery before it moved to shelton, and i've seen some pretty nasty ****. a rubber glove from the finisher(not baker) was dropped in the dough and not taken out. one time issac (he has a funny moustache) dropped a ten pound blob of dough on the ground, wiped it off, put it back on the conveyor belt, and proceeded to knead the dough with his bare hands. Don't eat that ****, it's raunchy. Oh yeah, the creamers. don't get me started. We have to log the temperatures every day, and i'm the only person who actually does them without filling them in. So i look at hte tank this morning and the cream was 49 degrees. It's supposed to be 44 or lower or it will eventually curdle and make you sick. just letting you guys know what goes on behind the counter.

[FREAKofNATURE]

because i'm a (f)ucking idiot? I quit a while back, but asked for my job a month later. They were more than glad to give it back to me because i'm the only person there who knows the difference between his asshole and a chocolate munchkin :lol:. And plus, i hate the food, so i wont eat it. If i worked at another food place, I'd eat the **** nonstop. What really pisses me off though, is if i have somewhere to go after work and i don't have time tyo go home and make some coffee, i have to pay for a cup. So i can work a six hour shift, punch out, and have to pay for my coffee. I'm basically a customer in a stupid *** uniform.

That's ironic that they go to dunkin donuts because they need caffiene. It is well known that our coffee is weak compared to other coffee places. I forget the percentage, but it's weak. What cracks me up is the reduced carb bagel. On the diet you're supposed to have 20 carbs a day no? A regular bagle has 62 carbs, and the reduced carb bagle has 48 carbs. Basically 2.5 times more carbs than you need on the diet. And people get sausage egg and cheese sandwiches on it thinking they're being smart.

It's crap, Tryxx. Absolute crap.









But being the nice guy I am, I'll take it off your hands for a generous $250.





Who knows...if you play your cards right, I might even buy that horrible Modulus of yours out of pity.

[Tryxx]

How generous of you, but I think I'll hang onto them both, sentimental value and what not.

[Mr_Soup]

I decided a fretless bass at leaves gives an illusion that you can play Teen Town properly. :lol:

[ShetaN bRaT]

Oooh, oooh ... oh damn that's nice ...

[MasterofBass]

$975, with new flatwounds and the guy threw in a six pack set of D'Addario's. :cool:

That's with tax, too.


very nice. So you still gonna fix up the ESP?


but the warwick is very nice :thumb:

[janyeno]

I reckon that it is a pretty nice bass there... sweet stuff...

And dunkin donuts is awesome... almost too awesome...

[Tryxx]

Let me reassure everyone, it IS damn nice. :thumb:

I might get around to it sometime, but it's not a real big priority.

[slickric3462]

I wonder what goes through your mother's skull-buying you over 10,000 dollars worth of equipment.

How do you even appriciate it? Makes no sense to me.


Seriously, that pisses me off. Lazy assholes with no work ethic getting everything they want because their parents invested in some fast food company in the 90's and made a whole lot of money.


dude i couldnt agree more...so many 16 and 17 year old kids get these ridiculous basses and have only played a few gigs in their life and dont even have a job...spoiled bastards

[pukeboy66]

dont you guys think its a little mean that everytime tryxx makes a thread to show us his new gear you have to cut him down?

*end spam*

[Tryxx]

I don't LIKE it, but it doesn't irk me that much anymore, though he's banned because he missed the disclaimer about it. You know, the one that said if you do it you're banned for 3 days...

[PainKiller8191]

oh man that's a sweet *** purchase....

did u say six pack of d'darrios!? goddamn.....I can't afford ONE pack

I need a job:(

Boo, mods stepping in for each other, threatening to ban opposing users. Boo. I'll risk the 3 day ban and say. Hell you are a spoiled brat Tryxx... You just graduated high school, and you get a 900$ loan from your mom, without any downpayment or guideline on how much you have to pay per month?

Just enjoy entering real life, when everything won't be so simple.


P.S. The bass is f'ing awesome!

[Mitchell Royce]

I don' know what to think about the mod behaviour in this thread but I'm all in support of Tryxx and his mother. Most of us aren't so lucky. You better buy her a hell of a nice house and make her lotsa grandchildren once you're a pro.

[Rollo47]

Very nice :)

(but i miss krispy kreme more:naughty: )

[Jamie]

God, I cant believe they charge you for a cup of coffee!! ITS ON TAP!! It costs them next to nothing!!

At Mcdonalds (wher I work) when I finish my shift I'll just ask a manager if I can get a drink to walk home with, then they'll go and get me a large fanta or whatever :) And I can just get a drink when I'm thirsty and not packed with customers/things to make, etc.

Then for my break we are entitled to one full meal, so thats a large drink, large fries, a burger or whatever (I get a Chicken Salad Deli Sandwich though) and a desert (super duper chocolate/crunchie flurry :p)


And thats why most people that work there are fat :lol: (except me)

[Pluperfect_Arson]

I'm not a fan of Warwicks, but that one is extremely nice looking.

[neal_672]

Lovely bass Tryxx, a great choice.

Hope it treats you well etc etc

[Led_Zeppelin678]

NICE ax, and congratulations on being the first mod in the MX Warwick Club.

If I didn't already have a fretted one, I'd buy a fretless. Played one, it was amazing. Second best fretless I've ever played (first place goes to Kinal).

[Chris K]

I can stand Corvette's as fretless basses, they work that way, but as fretteds..with chrome hardware....no thanks. Not at all.

And I got some good news today too, a price quote of £850 for a Yamaha Attitude bass :D I guess we're all celebrating.

[Led_Zeppelin678]

I hate you.

[Chris K]

I hate you.

me? :confused:

[Led_Zeppelin678]

I mean it in that envious joking around kind of way, I don't literally hate you. You know how bad I want an Attitude bass.

[Chris K]

I know, but do I go for that or the JP bass? I have a lot of money rolling around from working hard and I really do love the Attitude...but maybe I should get a 6 string for the hell of it...

[Led_Zeppelin678]

"I really do love it" vs. "maybe, for the hell of it..."

Get the bass you really want instead of letting G.A.S. screw with your head.

:thumb:

[SixnStones]

It's through MX that I've grown to sort of want a Warwick, but I've never played one, so.... My bass teacher is bringing in his fretless for my next lesson so I can see if one of those would suit me.

P.S. I don't think there's been good modding in this thread. I think it should've just been closed if it was that off topic. There's free speech, what's up with a 3 day ban for voicing an opinion?

Arent you selling your BTB so you can pay back your parents for the Kubiki you just got? Or am i mistaking you for another MXer...?

Tim, I was wondering when you were going to post here. :lol:

I love the figure on your Corvette, but I must say, the straight grain seems kind of classy too.

1.2.3.

Is there a rule stating you cant? Or what else was it that led to his ban?

[elbassio]

Tryxx, how did defretting that bass you were working on last week turn out? I didn't think you wanted to buy one?
Still, fantastic. I've played one of those before, but owing to the fact I didn't have £800 on me, I had to forgo buying it.
I've been considering buying a relatively cheap bass and defretting it for fun, how do you actually go about defretting a bass?

It worked great, and plays very well on the two strings that are on it. :lol: Putting the flats on two of the tuners stripped out and basically don't work anymore. They don't tune above low B pretty much... So I'll just need to replace those sometime.

Jamie has a guide in the rescources. Also, read through this thread: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=71144

That's me, I have a lot of cash stockpiled for the Yamaha, but before I spend that I really wanna pay my mam back for the Kubicki (I've already paid half of it). Just imagine owning those two babies!

[Bassinator89]

(f)uck you. :lol:

i have so many stories about idiot customers. Seriously, i can make an encyclopedia. I just did some math out. One guy gets so much coffee, it adds up to 3500 dollars a year. If he bought bags of coffee and made his own e wuld only spend about 450 dollars. he looks like a rat, we call him rat man behind his back. anywho, the warwick is sex.


Haha dude, I work at dunkin too. I work the 12-6 thought becasuse i find 6am is too early. As far as prices I figured out that if you get a box of joes price in large coffees you get more coffee and you get a 1 free donut with each large. Wooh dunkin donuts!

[mastrrbasser]

yeah, seriously brew your own coffee. There is this one couple that spends 10 k a year. I'll do the math out later for you guys because i have to get ready for work, then band practice. They can pay a years tuition in college for what they spend on coffee.

[peeted]

not bad, iv allways been intrested to see how a warwick fretless would sound, its a sound i cant "visulise" in my head.

[Bass_swede]

Looks incredibly good! A fretless corvette looks much nicer than a fretted!

very nice. very growly yet smooth.

[Tryxx]

It actually seems I have to make this bass work for the growl a bit harder than expected. It's "mwah-riffic" though, and does come extremely close to the Jaco tone. Rounds would help a whole bunch though.

please judge us on age. not to sound like a dick or anything, but just because someone is young doesnt mean they should go get a squeir if they dont have a job. if someones parents are willing to shell out some cash then why shoudlnt they?

and since when do amount of gigs equate to anything? you can have a bunch of really bad gigs, or you could have a few good ones. i dont understand your logic.

also to add in, tryxx is a competent player...dont worry he'll do justice to the bass.

[Manticore Guy]

What kind of fretboard is it? Rosewood? Btw I played a fretless corvette today for like the 5th time, and its amazing:)

[nicatterberry]

I believe the fretboard is ebony.

[Manticore Guy]

^You believe or you know? lol Im just wondering because I was considering getting the one I always play at guitar center, and if its ebony that makes me want to buy it a lot more.

[omfgzit3htrolls]

Do you just go up to her and ask:

"Oh Gee mom, want to throw down a thousand buckaroo's on some bass I want out of momentary aquisition syndrome?"

"Sure son, just be sure to pay me back without ever having a job, ever! Lawl!"

I have a feeling you might have been expecting something else. Short story, putting the flats on my ESP the A and G tuners were stripped out. So...I have a two string bass for the moment. But I compensated.
Umm... Did you vacuum just for the picture? How cute. :naughty:

wow, um, way to disagree with him and then say what u wouldn't want him to say
"don't worry, he'll do justice to the bass"


and to the guy leftshoe quouted
some people have more money than others, which means they feel they can afford certain things others can't, for example, i have a friend who plays a 68' jazz through a peavy 115 50W amp and changes strings basically whenever he wants to

and me on the other hand, I play a rockbass, 110 crate 50w, but I also pay for my own gym subscription
and i change my strings once in like.....6 months

[Left Shoe]

uhhh i think you mistook me, i disagree with him and i say tryxx will do justice to the bass...

and whats the point of your post if you try to attack me...then attack the guy im arguing with

[Led_Zeppelin678]

have you ever seen his schecter collection? It will blow you away.

A bunch of inexpensive and very similar basses cannot compare to a Corvette fretless, a Modulus sixer, and an 8-string.

And yes, the fretboard is ebony ($150 upcharge to add lines, for those interested).
