SOLD! Warwick Corvette Double Buck $$ 4 String - SOLD
chuck_stones replied to Mickbass86's topic in Basses For Sale
Bloody hell!! £375 for a $$, even a for worn one that's an awesome price. Mate if I had the money I'd be driving to collect it instead of typing this. For big rob, the neck on these is awesome. I think it's Ovangkol and it's one of the nicest woods to touch, it's quite a thick neck, but narrow (I wish I could describe it better, but I get well confused by all these 'C', 'D' shaped terms). -

Got this in a trade recently and whilst it's freaking awesome, I need cash and don't have cause to keep it, so it's gotta go. In near mint condition; Korean made Ibanez ATK 700 Light ash body Maple fretboard, jumbo frets 5-piece laminate BO neck (Birdseye maple and possibly Wenge?) Blue Moon finish with (5mm) quilted maple top. Massive bridge plate with string through body option. 3-band EQ, Ibanez ATK triple coil pickup with 3-way 'character' switch (as best I can tell this changes it from single coil neck > humbucker > single coil bridge? - if anyone knows better, I'd love to know) EDIT: Thanks to an enquiry I've been reminded to mention that this bass weighs in at 9.5lbs. Currently strung with a set of D'Addario flatwounds but can change these for Roundwounds if preferred. All in all a bloody lovely, well built bass with tonnes of tone and attack. Gigged just once and has been well looked after, I'd give the condition a 9.9/10 - it still has the QC stickers on the electronics cavity and only faint marking on the lacquer when held in the right light. I know these aren't that easy to find these days and given the condition is a bit of a gem, so will look for [s]£325[/s] [b]£275[/b] delivered (o.v.n.o). Happy for buyer to collect from Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Probably one of the best basses you'll find for £275 or less. Any questions, please just get in touch

[quote name='mikeh' timestamp='1339599323' post='1691238'] Cheers mate, I noticed that earlier. Used to own a Bongo and even though its Fugly, played and sounded amazing. Certainly worth considering. Mike [/quote] LOL, glad it's not just me who thinks they went a bit off the reservation with the design, but as you say, they're great sounding (and playing) basses - you looking for something [s]new[/s] different?

If I thought I could score the credit I'd actually consider a loan that to bag that beauty. I seriously doubt you could find as a high quality & fidelity, beautifully German engineered piece of kit, let alone in near mint condition, for the price you're asking. Gonna see what I can do about raising funds but I won't hold my breath...
