I searched for info and I can say the preamp is MEC for sure. Now the only question is if those PIHER pots have been changed or were put there in the factory.

All I know from the previous owner is that everything’s original. And I didn’t change anything. And through preamp the sound is more aggressive . Now you can see how good I am in electronics and Warwick history But I put some pictures with pots and preamp, maybe helps. I hope we solve the mystery. One pot is MEC for sure, but the others are PIHER. I don’t know if they used this kind of pots on Warwicks or have been changed. On the preamp I see “BRUECKE”, meaning BRIDGE, so the preamp is a German one... maybe MEC.

Thank you, Tony!

Hello friends For sale (I’m open to trades too) a rare, amazing (really) and all original bass, bought few months ago. Was professional refretted two months ago with original Warwick bell brass frets => very low action, VERY easy to play. Why I want to sell it? Shortly, the main reason is a financial one. I have a credit to the bank and I received a very attractive offer from them. So, unfortunately or not, my small bass collection must be diminished. The second reason is my painful back, so this bass must go first. It weighs about 5,3 Kg on my bathroom scale. Some specs: - flame maple body, oil/wax finish - flame maple / bubinga NT neck (with volute 😎), oil/wax finish - wenge fretboard - Warwick “Made in West Germany” machine heads - brass bridge - 20 mm string spacing - brass just-a-nut 1 (if I am right, 1998 was the last year when they put this kind of nut on basses) - Dunlop Straplock Flush Mount - Basslines (Seymour Duncan) pickups - MEC preamp (3 eq, 18 V) - new jack plug - equipped with an almost new Nickel Elixir set (32, 45-105, 130) It has few dings, but nothing “dangerous” and no one on the back of the neck. For an almost 21 years bass (October 1998), is very clean. It comes in a non-original hardcase. The price is 1750€ 1700€ (only in Euro, please), shipping in UE countries included. Detailed pictures on request.

Hello friends I bought this bass a week ago. Enough to realize that is an amazing bass, very confortable, with a great sound. Why I want to sell it? Shortly, the reason is a financial one. I have a credit to the bank and I received a very attractive offer from them. So, unfortunately or not, my small bass collection must be diminished. Some specs: - flame maple/alder/flame maple body - maple/carbon 90/10 NT neck, no truss rod - 21 frets + fret zero - 860 mm scale - phenolic fingerboard - Schaller machine heads - Kahler bridge - adjustable string spacing, 17,5 mm maximum (now at 17 mm) - Schaller Straplocks - Benedetti single coil pickups - Glockenklang preamp (9 & 18 V). The original preamp included - equipped with Elixir strings - 4,5 Kg aprox. It comes in a non-original hardcase. The price is 2050€ (only in Euro, please), shipping in UE countries included.

On hold

I just edited the announcement: I think is not usual to increase the price, but my financial issues are gone, so now the bass costs 2500€ (sorry, only in Euro), shipping to EU countries included. I'm open to trades too. The price was 2000€ for a quick sell, but not too many were interested, so I think now it will be not very hunted. Anyway, I let it here, maybe someone will enjoy the pictures

I'm open to trades

I almost believe you, haha! Thank you, Ovi! It was always a pleasure to deal with you

Hello friends! Later edit: I think is not usual to increase the price, but my financial issues are gone, so now the bass costs 2500€ (sorry, only in Euro), shipping to EU countries included. I'm open to trades too. The price was 2000€ for a quick sell, but not too many were interested, so I think now it will be not very hunted. Anyway, I let it here, maybe someone will enjoy the pictures It's the best fretless I ever touched. Endless sustain, unusual for a fretless bass, great sound, ridiculous low action etc. Ok, why it’s for sale? Because I don’t play it, a fretless is not very suitable for the music I play now. I don’t want to keep it only for enjoying at home. Too sad for me The bass is used but not abused - some dings at the top and bottom of the body (visible in the pictures), plus a little scratch on the back of the neck, that cannot affect the playability because you never reach that area with your thumb. Specs: Mahogany body (with tonal chambers) Maple/purple heart neck, thin, very comfortable, asymmetrical - a little bit of Strandberg EndurNeck profile 34” scale Dual-action truss rod Phenolic fingerboard Brass bridge (19 mm string spacing) Brass nut (adjustable) Bartolini pickup (passive, I think) 3 band active preamp (I don’t know the brand) Equipped with almost new Elixir nickel strings 032, 045-105, 130 Aprox. 4,5 Kg Original Laurus gigbag 04.2000 - no. 516 More detailed pictures and mp3 at request.
