Right away I can tell that I like it. Iām not keen on how stiff the strings are on it but itās definitely got the Warwick thing going on. It just speaks differently than the Corvette which is what I wanted. This will get a tone the Corvette canāt and the Corvette gets a tone that this probably wonāt. Warwicks are like pokemon maybe, gotta catch em all and play them.
Nice bass. One day when I grow up I will get a five string. Why is it backwards? (j/k)
I was going to say the same thing. Lol.
Oh hey thatās a great looking bass, lol. Interesting pickup. Is it quad coil?
Iāve had people calling me backwards and everything else. I love seeing the wierd reactions to upside down and backwards. Honestly left handed and instruments donāt mix. Itās always tougher getting my hands on anything. But good thing about Warwick is that if you want them anything they make can be built left handed. But to answer your question about pickups I think itās quad coil but Warwick calls them passive soapbars. The tone is pretty fat generally and I would say they are. Very similar to humbuckers but different. It definitely doesnāt copy the humbuckers in my Corvette.
This is the Corvette next to it. Youll see an Ibanez Soundgear hidden behind there too. I really need a stand or something to set up my bass pile better.
It looks like a baby Sims. You can wire that up like a crazy fool I love that.
Yeah, youāre going to want a stand. Priority for me would be taking care of the ones I have before buying new ones so that would drive me crazy until I had a stand for them, lol.
Pretty sure they are passive single coil soapbars.
edit: they are passive dual coils - essentially normal humbuckers. Thatās actually awesome, probably my favorite combo.
Warwick says soapbars so Iām going to say soapbars. They might be like 2 jazz bass pick-ups hidden in there though. They do sound very fat and punchy. Iāve staked my basses in that spot for almost 10 years and never had an issue. I gig bag the ones Iām taking a break from and I keep the ones open that I pick up and play. Sometimes I play 1 for a whole session of noodling and practicing and sometimes I swap out a couple times. Just depends on what Iām feeling. I try to not play 1 bass so much that I get stale sounding. Thatās why I have a few. The Ibanez is light and sounds really cool to be honest. Itās deep and has a very good tone up the neck. The Corvette is my main bass and the attack I get just really cuts anything. The lows and mids really are the thing it does best. Lots of growl, punch, near the thumb bass tone but a little bit thicker. Now with the streamer itās tone seems really thick too but instead of the thumb tone itās more like the Ibanez in being deeper and just a hint of that signature Warwick growl and richness to the note. My instrument wishlist just got a lot smaller today. Iād still like a fortress though. Or a thumb.
Soapbar is mostly a designation of the housing and shape, not the coils (single, split or humbucker). They can be any of the three. But yeah, it will always be accurate to call them soapbars.
Very true. Iāve had soapbars that I flipped just to see what happens. Split coil soaps will sound a little different depending on if itās flipped. Youāll get a reverse p config in that case.
Most quad coils can do it all
single coil
Humbucker
P pickup and revers p.
This makes for a fun e tone minting. Lol.
Yeahā¦ but these arenāt quads 
The picturesque Castles @EddieJones were mainly built by the English bastards to subjugate the Welsh, Irish and Scots 
This castle was about 300 feet from my front door growing up in Wales.
I used to dream of mountain biking in Wales
Really? I thought it rain a lot. Itās terrible to ride in a muddy condition I tried that a few times. No more, lol. Golf is the opposite, when it rain I love to be on the course.
Thatās why itās so green in Wales @Al1885 it rains all the time. Anyway, riding in the rain is the best. Teaches you to get off the front brake and point it
