Warwick P-Nut III Signature Bass On Display And In Action At Winter NAMM 2009

[hentajus]

that low B sounds MONSTROUS!

[PNWgroove]

I think that is a beautiful instrument, and I'm a drummer. The guy demonstrating it wasn't very good though. It would have been better to demonstrate the musical qualities of the bass with a guy who could actually play.

[SDCParrot]

Who else spotted the Buzzard?

[Kalopsia666]

lot of pop in that bass

[OfficialRobbieMason]

1:30 sounded like he was doing the 311 song into to "what was I thinkin"

[HornSpeakersSuk]

I really adore how in a 2 minute video, the guy only plays a grand total of 2 notes on the low B string =) Real helpful guys (not). Such a useful 'demonstration' (not). Fuking USELESS.

[Basstard22]

@HornSpeakersSuk well the bass is fucking useless aswell, so what's the point?

[HornSpeakersSuk]

@Basstard22 We don't know if the bass is useless, because the person demonstrating it is useless. What U say is useless, because it ignores the obvious fact there is not enough information 2 judge this bass - only the incompetence of the demonstrator =) If, however, they actually bothered 2 PLAY the low sounds, we might have some idea how this 'BASS' actually sounds =D

[Basstard22]

@HornSpeakersSuk You're right there, but i ment that (in my opion) Warwick basses are a bit overrated. Sure they give a nice sound and all, but they aren't really worth the high prices (again in my opion). If i look at the signature bass of Robert Trujilo, i can't really discover what it makes worth 9000 bucks...

[HornSpeakersSuk]

@Basstard22 No point reading your insane troll garbage. Everything I say is obvious & correct & U know it. This isn't a debate. U R just trying 2 fill your empty life by trolling people who post obvious, verifiable facts like me. Good luck with that.

[Basstard22]

@HornSpeakersSuk I'm not trying too ''fill my empty life'' or anything like that. I just give my opion about this basses, and i hope too learn somemore about them from people, about the prices and so on. I don't want too debate anything here.

[HornSpeakersSuk]

@Basstard22 This isn't a debate, troll. I'm just stating some obvious facts 4 real humans 2 read =) Enjoy your trolling.

[01skillet]

@HornSpeakersSuk Ok Hornspeaker bitch I already had to deal with you on the P-nut solo vid so now why the fuck are you watching this vid these basses are worth the price bitch so lay off asshole

[HornSpeakersSuk]

@01skillet U do not believe N E thing U R saying. U R just a pathetic, masochistic dork who likes 2 pretend your CD collection is your penis, so U do a RIDICULOUS "I'm so fuking deaf I adore krap talentless non-solos on bass" routine pretending it protects your 'investment' in their ska krap noise.

Get a life - seriously. Every word I say is obvious & correct & U know it. @ least admit he sux, because otherwise U only make yourself sound idiotic.

[HornSpeakersSuk]

@01skillet Like there's a band called 'Neurosis'. I have all their CDs & have been 2 their shows. They have good bits & bad bits. Their drummer is boring, & half the time they do this lame boring 'tuning up quiet time' routine that is totally lame. Y do I say this? Because I am HONEST & I want 2 help them IMPROVE their sound, & pretending thier FLAWS R assets only makes them WORSE. 2 bad most people R fuking retards like YOU who would rather say they love the taste of poop.

[jlebesis]

@Basstard22 I understand where you are coming from Basstard. If you want the answer to what makes them that expensive...How about trying to find out ? :) You'll find that its not the 'name' of the artist that makes the bass that expensive. Warwick have many custom shop basses that have nothing to do with any endorsing artist that well exceed the $15,000 mark. I've seen them personally. Steep, yes, but just wanted to clarify for you ;)

[kingkeith666]

shit sound



[Sabiano]

THATS HOW A BASS SHOULD SOUND LIKE!

[WeCamefortheDead]

ZOMG! Tonewood tonewood tonewood!!!

If he were to make it with alder or hell, even pine, it'd sound the same. It's all in the craftsmanship.

[stkal210]

Flinstone's Bass

[JazzSXman]

this bass is a beast and this guy plays very awful

[Testikkeli]

Well the slapping in the end was pretty lame... I mean seriously. That was pretty bad slapping.

[visog]

Dave Lee Travis on bass at the end there...

[rockerlach]

hermoso!!!!

[jeremebonesaw]

Is it just me or does anyone notice that the Streamer's shape is way too similar to another bass brand's shape named Spector?

[fakdol]

@jeremebonesaw we all know that dude.. where are you from man?!!!!!! keep on googling

[jeremebonesaw]

@fakdol Haha california. You?

[misanthroposy]

Warwick got the body shape from Spector. It's an NS body style. Spector liscenced it to them for a price ofcourse. Thats why I would buy any body style from warwick besides a streamer. Because if I want that body style I'm going to go to the original. A spector NS. Stands for Ned Steinberger.

[feverhood]

fine instruments, but way too overpriced

[MegaMariobass]

how much does it costs?

[ChiapasZapata]

@MegaMariobass every Warwick is to expensive. There are so rarely good. I ve tested a lot and I would never buy one. They so expensive and they sound so poor so ordinary. Look at the start. There is a battery and e-case of plastic. 3000 bugs. U know...

[Morgoth51]

@ChiapasZapata

So poor? So ordinary? Wrong. They have a very distinctive sound (which you can like or dislike of course). Rarely good? Again, wrong, they're great basses, well built. Now, indeed, they are too expensive. But they're cheap used. You can find them for a good price (even bargain). :)

[theoldgeneration]

wow the guys playing at the end suck !

[Preechamon]

im gettin a wishnevsky.

[HeadShootingMaster]

the guy playing it has a lot of feeling... (sarcasm)

[rafatma123]

wow, it is really a bass for experimented bass players, you don't have to get your asses destroyed to buy it. try with another..but if i some millionarie gift me one..i''ll be very grateful

[JohnMichaelEllison]

I'm saving up for this thing. I don't care if I'm only 15 and it'll take me years, but I will own this bass one day.

[NagrusD4Prez]

@JohnMichaelEllisonit might be better for you to order it custom-made to your own experienced specifications instead. i think this pnut custom costs more and may be a bit too specific to someone else's ideato fit your changing and established needs. for example: i tried the stage ii when i was at hollywood guitar centre and i hated it (big surpriseas all my heroes used it. however i tried the corvette and it owned. now i have a corvette. make sure to try them out!

[Killonn]

What amp do you think he's using?

It sounds great with that slap!

[TechSmack]

@Killonn its hooked into a computer not an amp

[ekkamai6]

i just love the sound of the new strings:D

[hruzismyname]

$10000? Okay, forget it. I rather buy warwick corvette.

[nephilymbass1]

@hruzismyname get a neck through Thumb TRUST me I bought and sold so many basses until about 3 years ago when I finally got a thumb 5 NT. Only thing I debate about now is to go for the 6.

[hruzismyname]

@nephilymbass1

Thanks for the tips bro \m/

[nephilymbass1]

@hruzismyname no problem. I've had two Corvettes and sold both of them. The resale value on the corvettes sucks also. Especially now that warwick has the rock basses.

[hruzismyname]

@nephilymbass1

Why do you sold those Corvettes?

I'm thinking of grabbing it at the end of the year.

[hruzismyname]

I swear i'm going to get one!

[CherryConcrete]

@hruzismyname

good luck getting that 10000$

[Blavits]

oh, whats goin on in my pants?

[PookLowEnd]

*Jeeeaaalllooouuusssssssss*

[ftfnavyseals]

I just creamed.

[stkal210]

pajeins bass me hago la paja con ese bajo o_O

[genez0r]

god damn im so jealous of that bass

[noquarter1000]

what bass is the on the far right of the wall, the black one

[Killonn]

@noquarter1000

the one i believe you're thinking of is the jonas hellborg signature....

[jazzman31415]

Skip to 1:29 if you just want to hear the bass and skip the waffle

[DarkThoot]

He must be really nice friend to play!

[thegreatwavetattoo]

BASS PORN!!!!

[captainoctopussy]

the bass player awful

[Dr3thepooner]

@captainoctopussy

Why?

[ghitaciprian]

nice basses but there are a lot of other bases that worth, warwick it-s just a name, whay pay so muc for a name ?!

[nachothebassplayer]

this is the best looking and sounding bass ive saw. i must have it

[ANARCHOFRANKO]

The bass's sound at 1:56 made me moist!!

[MartaDzika]

sexyyyyyyyy

[Pinstripedtie]

Where's the bottom end??

[bassfunkify]

Guys i had the opp, to test one of the top of line streamer against a Roscoe bass. Now before some of you go off on me, i love warwick basses. That being said, it was a ltd edition streamer, and the Roscoe was lower on its build options.Both were 5 stringed, and the Roscoe smoked it.

[moonsnake42]

@bassfunkify Oh man, I played a fretless Roscoe Century 5 at the Bass Gallery in Atlanta one time... holy hell. That was one of the best basses I've ever touched. Warwicks are nice, but no where even close to that Roscoe.

[Killonn]

@bassfunkify

yea the newer streamers aren't as good as they used to be. they used to have slim necks and brass nuts. now they have cheap plastic nuts and thick necks.

was the bass you tried a neck-trough streamer or a bolt-on?

[sesspleftocore]

geehh that last note was wet

[Killonn]

I want to get my own version of this later on. I would change the pickups to MECs and get rid of the matched headstock and the D'Tuner. I would also love to put some Afezalia stripes in the neck instead of having an all ovangkol neck.

[speratic1984]

Try a zon I switched from thumb bass to a zon legacy elite all graphite and blew my load hahahaha way better tones better feel but more expensive, if you play one you'll see why.

[speratic1984]

[speratic1984]

sounds like fucking shit and that dude slapping has shitty technique

[Killonn]

@speratic1984

the sound is because of the seymour duncans. i personally dont like them either. plus, the burl wood is denser which would have gone better with some slightly "better" pickups like MECs or EMGs.

[speratic1984]

@Killonn agreed I think they sound way better with the mec's.

[DMBassNVox]

@Killonn what about Barts?

[Killonn]

@DMBassNVox bartolinis are ok but mecs and emgs are far better in my opinion. mecs are thicker and more 'mid-range' while emgs are snappy and high (depending on what the bass is made of though)

[743d]

nice bass. wish pnut could get a good band

[missykim9]

@743d .......seriously, man? 311 is the greatest band ever and you wouldn't know unless you listened to all of their music...

[yovioleatuzorramadre]

oh my god, that bass is perfect

[Killonn]

oops! warwick......

[Killonn]

i wish that wariwkc made more of the P-nut signature 1. that was probably their best bass ever.

[MrPurplejersey]

This bass sounded great until he started playing slowly and simply at the end. Then it sounded weak.

[DJVBasil]

Best basses on the planet.

[TheSmooshster]

@DJVBasil

Thats a fact bro. I wish I had the money to fork out for a brand new Warwick 6-string. I love the Thumb and Corvette models. But i would take any warwick bass over any other on earth

[DJVBasil]

For sure they are the best. I have a Warwick Corvette for some years now thats been slammed, crushed, dropped, scratched, banged, and fking hammered on like nobodies business. The freaking thing still sounds like it just came out of the factory.

[zacisghandi]

Does any one know how much it weighs?

[zacisghandi]

it looks so small and lightweight, but packs a killer tone!

[MidwestMidnight]

@zacisghandi I wonder how much it actually weighs. I play a Corvette Std. 5-string and as much as I love the tone and playability, the damn thing is starting to give me a hunchback!!!

[drg92asturias]

a low A???? thats soo low

[mrbeam123]

Dont buy form Warwik. Abolitionists ! Hans Peter Wilfer.

[JungleManFCR]

sad but true, but their basses are great...

[missykim9]

i love how the guy starts to play "do you right" at the very end...that's like my favorite song

[blockmatix]

Have you seen how much they cost? I hate being a student sometimes!

[ranger1944omaha]

that thing is MASSIVE!

[sathan503]

I love that growl but i dont quite understand what each wood sounds like. If anyone could message me with a list of the woods warwick offer and the sounds and effects they produce, i would greatly appreciate it.

[TAYGUNOV]

theres a list somewhere on the internet. google "tonewoods". I always wonder to myself "wow, how is it that trees offer such different sounds".

[sathan503]

Thanks alot :D Im trying to make the perfect Custom Vampyre before i order it

[kjgskundrsiu]

So its active?

[x00xcarusox00x]

1:56-1:59 i was jamming and playign that last night lol

[woggleboggle]

what's the purpose of the angled neck pickup?

[gregzeebass]

The angled neck pickup gives the low B string a tighter,more focused definition & more growl.

[letterbekmen]

it make the higher strings soung mellower. kinda similar to pbass domino pickup sound

[xxxpeacexxx101]

i love the jewish guy showcasing it at the end. That was mad awesome. My dream bass.

[ciubz]

love the sound

[38decembers]

nnniiiccceee............

[myspacceer]

the body looks like a tree trunk

[khalithistle]

trees are made of bass guitars

[atz4]

@khalithistle lol

[ENMENDURANKI]

Sloppy playing.

[twinkieramirez]

absolutley beautiful

[Deadbassplayer]

My favorite bass soud so far

[TAYGUNOV]

wow! the woods on that warwick make it sound so thick and compressed

[lilbizbone]

slappin' skill. sloppy, but impressive!
