What an outrage! Some poor bugger has paid [b]£370.25p [/b]in a bidding war on ebay for a bass that costs only [b]£369 new [/b]as a right hander.
Did they research???? or just desperate for a model that is probably like hens teeth to get hold of in a south paw model?
The pain of being a lefty
Hope it was worth it
for the first time ever I joined band without writing a thing down.
listen listen listen..... then pick up the bass.
Sorry, that was a bit off topic :OP

Yes, but Chris Squire himself plays a replica made by the same people.

ah right. yes it will be very well made..... but.....ugh!
does it really make that much difference when the band are kicking it full tilt?
I spent time gettng the right arrangement of pedals/sound in the house, only for it to go out of the window when fighting with keyboards and crashy drummy things.
what the..?

A 19 watchers on eBay bump. Why watch something with a buy it now price?

Pretendy Kerb-crawlers.... looking, but too shy to dabble
yes I think an A/Bswitch could be the simple answer.

If you like how it sounds, then don't change the bass. Just get an A/B box or something that has adjustable levels and set it up for your two basses.
Or just turn the amp up when you change bass!
Seriously, if you like the sound don't faff about with new pickups or preamps or any of that stuff. You don't need to. Something like this might work:

Wise words!
I really like my cheap Warwick rockbass freltess. nice feel and lovely tone.......... but..
a bit.... quite
Are the EMC pick ups inferior compared to those fitted on more expensive Warwicks (duh!) ?
Should I look at changing them? Or is a preamp a good option? Perhaps a pedal booster?
I need to swap between my active Wal to the passive Warwick.
Suggestions?

Bump
Will consider any trade now, would really rather not sell as the money will be eaten up by other things!

feed the money straight towards another pedal of you choice!
