Warwick GPS Thumb BO 6 NT

Hatte mir diesen Basseinfach mal aus neugier bestellt.
Er ist Tadellos verarbeitet.Ich hatte wohl das Pech das er 2"Tote" Bünde hat heisst kein Sustain und der Ton bricht sofort weg.Schade für den Preis hätte ich das nicht gedacht.
War wohl ein Montags Instrument.

Den Bass nochmal zu Thomann geschickt und wieder zu mir zurück.Wahnsinns Instrument.
Der Ton ist seehhhhhrrr detailiert,artikuliert und spricht sehr schnell an.

Absolute Empfehlung.

Habe mich nach langer Überlegung für diesen 6saiter entschieden.
Optik, Sound, Gute Bewertungen und letztlich Bespielbarkeit hat mich dann im Shop überzeugt.
Anfänglich hatte ich Bedenken wegen der Halsbreite, diese sind nun nach kurzer Eingewohnungsphase verschwunden. Daheim perfekt zum Jammen mit Looper, kann es kaum erwarten ihn live mit der Band einzusetzen.
Dass er kopflastig ist kann ich nicht bestätigten.
Er ist recht schwer.

Selber im Laden ausprobieren, meine Kaufempfehlung habt ihr.

This bass is the bass of my dreams.

I've now been playing it for a bit over a year, and i'm still baffled how great it is. It's expensive, but it's nothing compared to what you get, really.

Overall feel:
The overall feel of the bass is very nice. There's been cared for the details. The wood itself is quite heavy, a bit like mahogany, maybe even a little heavier. The grain of the wood is very beautiful, and after playing it a lot, the area your forearm rests at, the neck and the areas around the knobs becomes almost polished, as if it were waxpolished. Even without it being plugged in, the instrument is VERY resonant!

Hardware:
The hardware is very great, it feels very expensive and the tuners are VERY smooth. It's very easy to change strings, you just cut the string at the right lenght and put it into a small hole at the machinehead, and turn. The jack input is nice and firm, not sloppy at all. So is the volume and tone knobs. There was a little bit of rattle at the bridge saddle for the C-string when I played it, due to the saddle being a little too small for the bridge. This could not be heard from the amp, but it annoyed me enough which made me put a little piece of folded paper in the small gap, which solved the problem.

The sound is what makes this instrument unique due to the MEC pickups. I suggest you go to youtube and listen to a couple of reviews, to see if you like the tone.

Don't expect much from the gig bag that comes with the instrument. It fell apart already after only using it a couple of times. The zipper for the storage broke and one of the straps fell off due to poor quality. The velcro fell off aswell, due to it not being sown on good enough.
It also comes with a small tool kit, including a wiping cloth, 2 allen key (or hex keys), a long, sorta kurved one that fits nicely in the trussrod, and one for the bridge and just-a-nut.

Overall, this is the best instrument I've ever had, as it plays very nicely and smooth when you set it up.

Uno dei migliori prodotti della fascia medio-alta della warwick.
Lo uso in sala prove, da studio a casa e nei live e in tutte le occasioni
fa egregiamente il suo dovere.

pro:

- Tasti Nickelsilver (per i warwick sono perfetti perchè aprono il range di frequenze attutendo un po' il suono ottavato)
- Forma confortevole
- Costruzione tedesca
- Tutti i pro della warwick (ponte completamente regolabile, security lock, capotasto regolabile just a nut ecc ecc)

Contro (personali)

- Bolt On (gusti miei, l'avrei preferito neckthru)
- Hardware cromato ( ho fatto la pazzia di cambiare tutte le meccaniche da cromate a nere e devo dire che ho fatto bene, mi piace molto di più)
