[quote name='sshorepunk' post='375973' date='Jan 10 2009, 10:37 AM']SZ was doing the p-bass thing last time I saw him, sounded good and just looked right in the MR band, this new bass looks odd for what he's doing now, not that its all about looks?[/quote]
Perhaps he'll be using it for another project he has lined up.
Ultimately I think it a case of Warwick and Zender scratching each other's backs. I'll bet Warwick have had this shape planned for a while and cast around looking for a player willing to endorse it's launch. If it sells they'll make it a permanent model, I reckon.
I love the shape, the neck joint and horns also remind me of Rickenbackers (which I normally dislike, but it works for me here).
