New Toys

[Frank]

Here are some pics of 2 new toys I purchased over the past couple weeks )ebay is addicting).

First of is a Zoom b2.1u I haven't even began to touch the possibilities of this thing. I am enjoying recording myself for the first time.

Secondly, and most importantly is my 1999 Warwick Corvette. Has a Swamp Ash body and Full Wenge Neck/Fretboard. Bartolini Pickups and NTMB 3-band electronics. Has a few minor chips/dents, but for a 7 year old bass it is in really good condition. I can't get over how light it is compared to my other Warwicks.

The previous owner had the whole electronic cavity insulated.

That 6 gets me every time.

Sweet new Warwick, though. I love the figuring on it.

[Frank]

My guitar stand is pretty full now. I don't like having the Wick's so close together, so I need to figure something out to space them a bit. I will probably get rid of either the Fender Strat or my Ibanez EDC-705 seeing as how I never play them.

My favorite is still by far the Thumb 4 NT however.....

Anyways, that is all for now. I have plenty more pictures that I took tonight, but I didn't feel like boring everyone.

Oh my god dude, I love that Thumb bass, beautiful. That Corvette is awesome too. So what does that pedal do?

[Frank]

The pedal is an effects processor, has 80 storage spaces, drum beats, tuner, and came with recording software (probably my favorite part), etc...

[nicatterberry]

Wow, nice basses man.

You have an ampeg half stack right?

[Rawb]

Awesome stuff man. Now lets hear that thumb!

[Frank]

Yes I do have an Ampeg half stack, however it is at my parents house cuz my apartment complex doesn't allow instruments that bother the neighbors, and the Ampeg didn't have headphone jacks so I am using my old Hartke Kickback 15 combo. Thanks for the comments everyone.

[HaVIC5]

I like the Corvette in the natural Swamp Ash color, I've never seen one like that before.

[WhoDidTheElf]

The grain on that Corvette is just stunning IMO.

The grain on that Corvette is just stunning IMO.
True true, its awesome. It changes from left to right. Crazy, I love it.

[turbogeek421]

How do those Bart's sound? Awesome?! I would think so, but I'm a n00b so I don't really know anything.

[mastrrbasser]

I love warwick necks. They're soooooo wide.

[ebe9]

I envy you for your collection of warwicks you have got going.

Congrats on the new purchase. It look beautiful, a really nice piece of swamp ash that.

[da_s_man13]

That grain is absolute secks. How does the Warwick + Bartolini combination shape up? Ive heard someone round here say itd be muddy as all hell.

[JeBuSrOcKs]

very nice new bass. you have a bloody nice collection :thumb:

im very jealous

[SixnStones]

some people.

[blizzard]

:eek: You have like the best bass collection on MX. That corvette looks soo great, congrats on it.

[Frank]

Thanks for all the comments. The Warwick Bartolini combination sounds pretty good in my opinion, however I haven't had a whole lot of playing time on it yet. Has a lot of growl to it, but that might be just the full Wenge neck/fretboard. I am debating changing the Vette to a tenor bass, but I just can't decide yet.

[the101er]

...Thumb 6 :eek:

[skingle]

You choose nice warwicks. Seriously, the woods look very, very hot on all three of those 'wicks.

[bottlerocket]

Those 'wicks look great. Nice buy. :thumb:

[Manticore Guy]

I think I'm one of the few, but I really do not like the color of the newest warwick. It just does not appeal to me.

[da_s_man13]

Also, great collection, but DayWalker still owns you with Warwick collection.

[Frank]

Yeah I have always really wanted a Streamer Stage II 5-string. Thats probably my next purchase. Or maybe a fretless Vette. Is it bad that I am already planning my next purchase before I have even made a payment on my last one? lololol

[da_s_man13]

Of course not.
