  4. [b]Now reducing to £900 or nearest offer.[/b] So here it is, After years of thinking I would never do this I’m selling it, Because it has to go. I ordered it through Marten at the Bass Gallery in London, and took recommendations off him at the time for woods and finishes. It took 5 months to make In the Warwick custom factory in Germany and made me a very happy boy when it turned up The Fret board is made of ebony, Instead of (I think it was) Wenge that was used as standard on warwicks back then, I preferred the more solid feel, and deeper sound. And thought of one day removing the frets, for which the ebony would be perfect. At the time the standard hardware for the streamer Jazzman was Gold… and the cheeky “fellas” charged me extra to get all black instead Round this period Warwick swapped their nut to some polymer fiber blablabla (Plastic) and I had to get the brass one with the independent screwpieces as an extra too. Ovangkol neck, swamp Ash Back and flamed AA book matched maple top. The Electronics were a bit of a hastle, something else they were changing at the time. But managed to get the circuit with the active/passive push/pull volume pot. And the treb mid bass work a treat compared to others I’ve tried. The little three position switch by the knobs puts the Humbucker as Single coil,(using the coil closest to the bridge) in series or parallel . As a single coil works beautifully with the J pickup witch aint bad on it’s own either. And in series packs some serious punch and picks up mutes and pops amazingly well. Has almost a piano like tone if you combine the humbucker with the J, So much clarity on the low end, 5[sup]th[/sup] string does not get lost or lose volume. Honey Violin finish It has been kept clean and had the strings removed only to show the detail. They are back on now Bought to use as main bass, but ended up only gigging it a few times. Never toured it and has been my at home bass and a take to the studio bass since. Right, enough talking, Have a look at it. If you like it let me know. Tried to upload photos ended up using flicker. I saw a similar one (minus the custom changes) that looked in worse conditiongo up for £900 so Thinking £[s]1000[/s] NOW 900 ono with a hard case.

  8. SOLD!!!!!!! SOLD!!!!!!! SOLD!!!!!!! [quote name='subcurrent' timestamp='1344899605' post='1770971'] three programable analogue channels and bipass, loads of pure good sounding drive that is easy to keep defined, also really good as a treble booster because of the the presence nob, boosts and cuts bass and treble so useful as an alternate tone tool. I also a Phantom power and earthed D.I. box, So you can decide exactly what goes to the desk be it live or recording. Low noise, great tones and sturdy build I am cutting down to a home setup so no longer need this. They seem to go for around the £200 mark selling £110 [attachment=115590:_MG_4930.jpg] [/quote]
