Wow! Probably the best looking Spector I've seen! That colour, combined with the wood grain and gold hardware! 👌

Stunning! Normally I love the woods that Wal use but this black finish is gorgeous 😍

BTW, the battery cover is not missing, I took it off to show the corrosion on the terminal.

Yep, only those made in 93 according to what I have read...

**further price drop to 375GBP** Up for sale is a nice vintage high-end Ibanez from the late 80s. Research indicates the model number is SR800LE and the serial number reveals it was made at the legendary FujiGen factory around 1987/88. Features: Offset double cutaway basswood body, bolt-on three-piece maple neck, 24-fret rosewoood fingerboard w/pearl dot inlays, Gotoh tuners, AccuCast B20 bridge, one Lo-Z J-style and P-style Ibanez pickups, volume/blend/ bass and treble EQ controls, black hardware. Overall the bass is in very good condition, especially for a 34 year old instrument! All of the electronics work perfectly, as does the truss rod and the hardware - there is some minor damage to the bridge under the saddle for the e-string though - this shouldnt present a problem though as the saddle is set in the correct position for intonation so no need to move it. There are a few dings - see photos. The fretboard has been cleaned and oiled, the frets have been cleaned and polished. Lovely ergonomic and well balanced bass. Nice and lightweight too at only 3.6kg! The bass will be shipped in a Warwick gigbag, packed within a strong shipping carton. A generic hardcase can be added for a small surcharge. Shipping to UK £55, EU £25 - cheaper options are available if I detach the neck and the buyer reattaches it upon arrival....

**price drop to 675GBP** Up for sale is my awesome and collectible Warwick Fortress One from 1993. Made in Germany, this is one of the very first ever to be produced as confirmed by Hans-Peter Wilfer (Warwick CEO). Overall the bass is in very good condition, especially for a 28 year old instrument. All of the electronics work perfectly, as does the truss rod and the hardware. The fretboard has been cleaned and oiled, the frets have been cleaned and polished. Lovely ergonomic and exceptionally well balanced bass - the best balancing Warwick by far thanks to the extra long upper horn. Nice and lightweight too at only 3.6kg! Controls are vol, blend, tone, tone The bass is not perfect though, there is some damage to the body as shown in the photos. The damage is NOT structural and is no cause for concern, it has been repaired and you wont notice it sonically or while playing.

Incredible bass! I love mine! You are a little off on the current retail price though - you need to add 950€ for the 5 string broadneck option, then 610€ for the (what I assume are)passive Barts! So that's a rather horrifying 8839,00€ retail - which makes your price seem even more of a bargain!!! GLWYS

That's the nicest piece of walnut I've ever seen 😍 GLWTS

sale fell through so back up for sale

Stunner!😍

Sale pending

Awesome bass! What is the neck material though? Or is it just a finished neck?

Price Drop bump

That fretboard is next level!

Awesome Thumb! The neck sounds completely fine - I guess it is currently setup with no or very little relief and as such, once the tension from the strings is removed, the tension from the truss rod will naturally bow the neck backwards slightly. As long as there is still movement in the truss rod to increase the relief (ie. You can slacken the tension in the truss rod) then all is as it should be.

Actually I think you are correct, especially considering they both have the Bart soapbars which are rare. Yes it is sad but rather inevitable I guess. Who knows, maybe one day the brand will be revived...
