badboy1984 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I've got a warwick corvette 5 with john east and bart preamp. Not too sure how to get a tone like that. EQ setting and blend the tone towards which pickup ...... I don't use graphic EQ on my amp, only got bass, low mid, mid, high mid and treble.

tommorichards Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Sounds like its geared more towards the J. Not sure about the EQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRBboy Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 It sounds to me like the pickup balance is more biased toward the bridge pickup, and he hs the low mids boosted a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 That is mostly the J type pickup doing that, IMO. I'd try the low mid and roll back the treble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 on warwick 2 band eq i would cut the highs a wee bit and then boost the bass a third, the bass boost is set fairly middy - if you have 3 band eq on your bass cant help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 All the above seems right Potter, Just Set the EQ flat on your Corvette, and roll selector towards the bridge, the bass should do 90% of that without much eq...then add a bit of mid and take off the treble as appropriate.

badboy1984 Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 thx all and Andy. I will give that a try, one of my band play cover on the Hong Kong band so i try to get that tone on my warwick. I know he play a stage 1. By the way Andy, I decide to keep the corvette. I think i might regret selling it after playing it over the weekend.

thisnameistaken Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I disagree, I think it's mostly (or all) the front pickup with the tone flat. Streamers sound pretty middy on both pickups but the bridge pup is much more nasal than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't be too difficult to dial in with the added options he has to hand. Potter - The bass is lovely, take it from someone who misses a Warwick Corvette and sold it for knob all, it's worth hanging onto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
