Warwick Teambuilt German Idolmaker Bass. Black satin factory relic.

Hardly used. Few months old. Handmade to order in Germany. All documents and kit included. 

Active four string.

These basses take 5 months to make and are order only. Retail around 2700 I believe so grab a bargain.

Was delivered to the guy I acquired it from in April. I have only noodled on it a handful of times ,so still in mint condition. 

It has gold aged hardware, custom aged satin finish, active MEC 2 electronics, passive MEC vintage humbuckers, the neck looks like wenge (not maple as it says in the spec sheet) Mahogany body and comes with factory rockbag, tags, certificate of authenticity, accessory bag, manual and leather pouch. It’s basically brand new as it has hardly been played . I was told It took Warwick about 5 months to make this, I think the only proper full fat German one in the UK.

Controls are volume pickup blend bass and treble with push pull active passive 

The two toggle switches select between series-and parallel-wired humbucking modes and a single-coil

How much is shipping to Denmark ? This could be exactly what I am looking for - Work in the Navy and with deployments etc. above my ears at the moment I *NEED* something that is easily transported but still manages to be useable in our little 3-man rock group onboard (Hey - You gotta spend those 4-6 months at sea doing something fun, otherwise you go crazy!).

£25 ,Thanks

This is a handmade zoot chaser bass made by luthier Mike Walsh in Essex in the UK not one of the Japanese ones 

Excellent condition with no discernable chips or scuffs

brass nut, John East 3 band E.Q bass, mid, treble, volume and blend. active passive switch and custom made "Iceni CSD" pickups

I bought this from eBay about a month ago and I am selling it for what the bass owes me 

When asked about the bass this is the reply mike gave :

"The bass above (eBay sale) was indeed a hand made bass (Made in Essex).  Out of all the Iceni Zoots that were the same as this one, I only made 3 in this peacock blue.  The reason for this was I used up the leftovers from the bass bodies I painted for the Mark King basses he endorsed for Fender  (Martin Simms did the necks and LED's etc and final assembly)  I remember at the time I had some heavy swamp ash in stock and that got used on these Iceni Zoot basses as well, I seem to also remember they were as punchy as hell.   The original Zoot Chaser was indeed made in Japan by Nanyo Beakoi (bass collection, Deviser basses etc)  However, we did the final setup in Essex, and fitted with  a John East 2 band E.Q.  and our own custom made "Iceni CSD" pickups (or you could have Bartolini / Seymour Duncan's as a cost option upgrade)  Here's a picture of the Mark King bodies being painted at my old factory.  Note the colour.  Also a picture of one of the other 3 that had a pickup option upgrade and is still being gigged every week by Bassist Steve Clark.  The King bodies are in fact the same colour as the Zoots, it's just that the King basses are waiting for the second and third colour coats to be applied, that's why they look a bit lighter in the pictures."

and yes it is "punchy as hell" 

postage at cost or pick up from Brighton East Sussex 

So did anyone on this thread win the eBay auction? or was 368 too expensive for basschat  😂

Up for sale is this beautiful Modulus Quantum 6 String Bass. It is in absolute mint/new condition as if it came directly from the factory with original hardshell case, tools and paperwork. It plays amazing and sounds as clear as a bell. No dead spots, no neck moving etc. I am just more comfortable playing 18-19mm spacing and that's why I am letting this one go again. Not an easy decision but I have to be realistic in that this bass needs to be played and I cannot afford an expensive instrument like this one to just sit in its case. The bass is located in the UK, shipping worldwide is no problem. A new bass like this from Modulus with these options would cost somewhere between 7000-8000 Dollars. I got it from a collector who never played this one. I also only played it a few times at home and realized quickly I prefer a wider spacing. So it's pretty much an unused bass.

It came from a collector who never played this one. I also only played it a few times at home so it's pretty much an unused bass.

The rear view shows a mains input socket market as 100v 60 Hz. Is this suitable for use in the UK?

Yes works absolutely fine in the UK, unlike the other smaller Phil Jones compact amps these have a voltage selector switch and are designed to be used globally
