From a fellow Stage II owner I can confirm this bass in a league above any other Warwicks, or any other bass I own or have owned, including a Warwick Jazzman, Musicman stingray, status basses, and others. The quality of sound is so good I've been known to record without a pre-amp. The bass is solid as a rock, never goes out of tune, and always looks good as the wood is so hard that it doesn't pick up dinks and scratches. Well worth the money if you can afford it - even if you have to sell off the rest of your bass collection!
Best of luck with the sale Markus!
