Warwick GPS Corvette 6 - Bubinga with black hardware

Warwick s/n lookup says this is product number: 1275080004BWBPOWWW, which is a product number still being used today. IF those specs have not changed for this product since 2016 (SOME specs have though, e.g. Ratio tuners, brushed metal pickup covers,... why does Warwick use the same product number ) then it has the following: Fingerboard Radius: 26" (660 mm) Scale length: 34" (864 mm) Long Scale Width Nut: 45,0 mm / 1.8" Width 12th fret: 60,8 mm / 2.4" Width 24th fret: 69,11 mm / 2.7" I can't get more quantitative than that at the moment, as I'm traveling. Neck feels pretty comfortable to me, so I don't believe it is a 'broadneck' Thumb, if that is what you're wondering. 'Broadneck' NT5 (product number: 1975671004BWABPFBW) has the following specs: Fingerboard Radius: 47" (1200 mm) Scale length: 34" (864 mm) Long Scale Width Nut: 47,0 mm / 1.9" Width 12th fret: 71,5 mm / 2.8" Width 24th fret: 84,38 mm / 3.3"

Well, the intonation on that GG Mapleglo Ric has been fixed... 🤣 and there have been a few other modifications too, including swapping out the knobs for larger 1" diameter ones, like those on my 2023.

I'm not playing 5 or 6-string bass much at all, so let's see if some others here are keen to play these basses that I have just lying around and then I can get something else with fewer string(s) with the money. This is a 2004 Warwick ChromeTone 5-string bass - Ebony board, bell-bronze frets, Ovangkol bolt-on neck and upgraded to brass Just-a-nut, Schaller turners and Schaller strap locks (original hardware has been kept, and will come with the bass... all perfectly functional, I just prefer the Schaller stuff). Bass is in great condition with no serious issues. Sounds really amazing, I just don't play 5-string at all these days. There are some scratches on the finish, and a couple of superficial dings, as you might expect for a 20+ year-old bass. I got this from BassConnection many years ago. Bass is at my place in Sheffield, and you're welcome to drop by and give it a play if you wish. I'm happy to post additional photos if there is interest.

This is a 2015 Warwick GPS Corvette 6-string - Bubinga with black hardware. Wenge board, Ovangkol neck. I upgraded this to all black hardware: Schaller turners, black Schaller strap locks and all black knobs, etc. (including heavier brass bridge, which is painted black) Bass is in lovely condition with only a couple of minor dings, no issues. Sounds lovely. I got this from Seb on Basschat many years ago. Bass is at my place in Sheffield, and you're welcome to drop by and give it a play if you wish. I'm happy to post additional photos if there is interest.

This is Squire P-bass is still available! It belonged to our vocalist, and he was keen to move it along as he no longer plays bass. I've been using it during some rehearsals and can confirm that it plays and sounds great. The bass is now at my place in Sheffield. You're welcome to pop by and give it a play.

By any chance was it this Mapleglo at GG in Glasgow? The neck thickness is one thing (I play a lot of Warwicks, and so don't mind thin), but the setup on this particular bass in the Glasgow shop was complete sh*t... look at the bridge saddle positions! They wouldn't be in more of a straight line if you used a ruler. Intonation was way off. String heights were also way off (in my opinion). Why would GG hang such a poorly setup bass on the wall? That said, it is a beautiful instrument. Schaller machine heads and strap locks, single truss rod, new bridge system. The knobs on the 2025 4003 (all of them?) are just a wee bit smaller than on my 2023 4003 (which has 1" x 0.6" knobs).
