Hey bass players! There’s a huge Warwick family of basses out there and some have very unique tones. Today’s video is about highlighting the unique tones of the Streamer, Corvette $$ and Thumb basses. Each has a unique tone print that might be better suited for certain genres of music. I’ve recorded rock, funk, slap and pick examples for each bass. Let me know which bass is your favorite! I’ve played Warwick basses for many years. I know when I purchase a Warwick that I’m getting an expertly crafted bass with incredible tone that will be set up perfectly. Each of the basses is strung with fresh D’Addario NYXL’s and recorded with just a touch of compression to level things out. @FramusWarwickOfficial  Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/daveporterband Website: https://daveporterband.com Timestamps 0:00 Warwick history and players 1:30 Streamer Stage II 2:00 Thumb NT 2:35 Corvette $$ 3:51 Rock Examples 4:56 Funk Examples 6:11 Slap Examples 7:34 Pick Examples #justplaybass #warwick #bassplayer
