    Hi, I have a couple of Warwick basses I am looking to sell to fund another purchase [b]Warwick Streamer Stage 1 5-string, 2003[/b].[b] - £1250[/b] - [b]SOLD!![/b] In perfect condition. I have kept the bass oiled and in top condition since I have owned it. It has just had a nut replacement and a full setup. Sounds and plays amazing (as you'd expect from one of these guitars.) [b]Warwick Thumb bass Dirty Blonde Ltd Edition 2006. - £1200. Trade value - £1200. [color=#ff0000]price drop to £1100[/color][/b] This is an amazing 4 string Warwick Dirty Blonde thumb bass. A couple of dings but generally in great condition. Just had a full setup too. This bass is also the lightest Warwick I have ever owned. It's ridiculously light. Bit sad to see them go but need to sell to fund another Warwick! I am based in Exeter, Devon, Willing to ship to anywhere in the UK and will think about EU both at buyers expense. Thanks

    [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1413976750' post='2584235'] For those styles, the Orange Terror Bass sounds great. Now, just sell all those funky active basses and get a P Bass with flats and you'll be there! [/quote] A P-Bass is literally my idea of hell!

    Hi! I am thinking about buying Orange Terror bass 500 head (on the advice of a friend. Going to buy it today I think) and already own a Gallien Krueger RB700mk2. Now, being out of the loop in regards to amps these days I was just wondering if anyone had experience in the Orange and how it stacks up next to the GK... I play mostly funk, RnB, soult, motown stuff and own 3 Warwicks (Streamer stage 2, Thumb bass dirty blonde, and Infinity.) Is this much of a 'step-up' in terms of tone and if not, what would people suggest? Thanks!

    Yeah it's cool isn't it. Plays and sounds a dream too..I've had loads of Warwicks and this is probably the nicest sounding one I own/have owned. Well the seller has 2 recent negative feedback comments on eBay in regards to not shipping basses which is strange considering he was so quick to help me in the dispute we had. Has read my comments to him too but just ignoring them.. No information on the next purchase off of him also. May leave it a few weeks and try again.

    This item has now been sold!
  9. funkyjimbob
    Yeah hopefully he will as I don't like to feel like someone has lost out (as I know how i'd feel if it was me)
  10. funkyjimbob
    I've tried to contact him several times (as he is supposed to be selling me another bass) and he hasn't got back to me in 3 weeks.

    Ok, so the Infinity is back from it's month long holiday with John Williams of Noiseworks and has come back a beauty! Neck is straight and not moving back! The pictures don't do the work justice.

    Ian bought my Zon 6 off of me yesterday. No fuss and a simple transaction.

    Hi guys, Thanks for all your advice. It is currently off to a luthier in Coventry who has dealt with Warwick neck twists before so fingers crossed! After I took the strings off the twist seems have come slightly less severe... It might have something to do with the temperature and humidity over here compared to where it has come from? Anyway, I am not holding out too much hope but you never know. I have other Warwicks too so could use the spare hardware. I'll keep everyone updated. Thanks!
  14. funkyjimbob
    Well, the guy kindly let me keep it. So instead of paying UPS or whatever the 50 odd quid to send it back, he just took 50 quid in exchange for it. Probably can salvage the pickups and electronics? Thanks

    [quote name='M@23' timestamp='1409087906' post='2536289'] Got to ask, why did you buy it in the first place? For a project or something? [/quote] Pretty much yeah. He sent pictures but he obviously didn't send one that showed the twist enough. He is extremely apologetic and has refunded so I am happy. I'm not going to bother even for spares I think as there is no chance that neck is coming back...
  17. funkyjimbob
    Yeah I suppose so. I didn't know whether it was worth offering 100 or so (as shipping back will be 50) and seeing if anyone could try and sort it?
  18. funkyjimbob
    He said 200 quid? Bearing in mind I have 2 Warwicks already so the hardware etc could come in useful?
  19. funkyjimbob
    Hey guys. He has refunded the money which is great but is now offering it at a reduced rate. How much would you think it would cost me to get this repaired? I wouldn't give a more than a few hundred quid on it in this state.

    I bought a Warwick Infinity off of eBay last week that the seller described as having[color=#141823][font=Helvetica, Arial,] 'This bass has a small side-to-side twist on the top of the neck. Frets 1 through 5.[/font][/color]' When it arrived today, this is what I was presented with: I am gutted to be fair. Has anyone seen neck twist like that before? The headstock is completely out of line with the body! Naturally I have opened an 'item not as described' case.
