    [quote name='EmmettC' timestamp='1457712743' post='3001266'] I would expect a reasonable discount to buy a bass without the original bag or case... [/quote] Conversely some folks make low ball offers for a bass that you might agree to but 'without' the case; leaving you to sell the case to recoup the difference! I've had it happen several times where buyers have said that they use x/y/z brand of case/gigbag and don't want the case that is with the bass, so would I knock off £20-£50 or whatever. Consequently I've got several branded cases off past basses, which have proved useful... for when I buy said brand of bass without a case!

    Love the use of big rubber feet/pads on the back; other manufacturers take note!

    2-Tek bridges real quality but rare as!

    Yes I've played a few M[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]aruszczyk basses in the last year and they range from 'helium filled' to very light! [/font][/color]

    I know Dave Wilson personally and his work is second to none! Do you have an accurate weight (I'll be the first of the 'weight challenged' shoulder injured bassists to ask)?

    Surely it's the 1000th bass made... shouldn't #1 be B000001

    I got myself another John but its a Lightwave model and the system fitted doesn't suit my playing style (lots of palm muting). GLWTS

    You always have some cracking basses!

    [quote name='largo' timestamp='1457281531' post='2997005'] It's the main reason I have a 2 cab rig. [/quote] This ^ A pair of 2x10's means if one dies I still have monitor. + I keep a small active Preamp/DI in my leads case

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1457174389' post='2995969'] This is a steal! I'm meeting Tom on Tuesday. IF ANYBODY from the north west or north east wants this cab PAY ATTENTION I can get it to Wigan for any guys in the NW. We can make arrangements from that point. I can get it to the North East, on Saturday 12th March, as I am gigging at Steph's in Consett. On that Saturday I can go up the west as far as Penrith, or alternatively go M62/A1 and meet up along that route. Or you can come down to Consett and collect from there. Please though, I will be on a tight-ish schedule on that Saturday. You will have no courier charge, you won't have to wait in for a courier to chuck it over the fence You will, however, have to sort out paying Tom, I want nowt to do with the loot I had a Schro 410BMF, best cab I've ever had, but circs changed and I had to go smaller. Good luck Tom, cracking cab. [/quote] Very generous offer, well done that man.

    [quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1457178211' post='2996032'] I've taken a rough average of £700 for estimation purposes. [/quote] Only 4 basses a week still seems low, I'd have thought 4 a DAY!
  13. warwickhunt
    I'm surprised your figure is as low as £3000 a week... I'd have expected more!
  14. warwickhunt
    Love the look and tone of the Thumb bass but can not for the life of me live with the short top horn and subsequent reach to the first position. Like wise I love the idea of a Ric but the big body and lack of forearm contour makes them a no go for me!

    [quote name='MB1' timestamp='1457109513' post='2995491'] MB1. Post Edit All enquiries regarding this item need to be PMD to the seller who will reply to any questions you wish to ask by PM Anything you'd like to ask me PM MB1....Don't Post it here! Thanks Martin. [/quote] Seems quite draconian...

    [quote name='Kev' timestamp='1456949832' post='2993995'] It looks more like cocobolo to me. What is the serial? If it is a 2000, the serial checker should have the details:- [url="http://www.warwickbass.com/en/Framus---Support--Serial-Number.html#current_site_id"]http://www.warwickba...current_site_id[/url] [/quote] Agree with the Cocobolo and I bet if you put the serial # in it will throw out the detail further up the thread.

    [quote name='moooper' timestamp='1456925074' post='2993570'] Swamp Ash/Bubinga pommele top body Ovangkol neck [/quote] IMHO an office temp at Warwick answers emails... at least I hope it isn't an 'actual' knowledgeable employee! The top could be Bubinga but I have a feeling it is otherwise... but for the sake of argument I'll concede. However, the neck is maple CATEGORICALLY not Ovankol! I've seen plenty of those Warwick email replies and I'd say greater than 50% had a major mistake in them; they generally get the year and month of manufacture right but to be fair I could provide that info (with greater accuracy) as it is part of the serial number you will have provided them with. Nice bass mind.
  18. warwickhunt
    If I weren't so far away I'd like to have tried these cabs.
  19. warwickhunt
    As Kev says Dave, the TR replacement on early Warwicks can be a doddle, they occasionally stick but don't need much coaxing out; cost is the price of a new rod!
  20. warwickhunt
    Buy with confidence... bought a Maruszcyk Jake from 'Spyder' and it was exactly as described.
  21. warwickhunt
    'girl' in title, youtube clip of someone playing... ah another one!
  22. warwickhunt
    The neck is glued in... or at least it is supposed to be; whereas this one is decoupling rapidly! Even if you are good with joinery etc. I'd be concerned that there is too much pressure for the neck joint to hold. The proper 'Fly' is a similar shape but a different bass altogether, though I did read about concerns re. the carbon neck/body joints failing (I used to own one).
  23. warwickhunt
    £2400 seems steep for a modded Jazz. Fair enough, swapping the originals for DiMarzio's is one devaluation but the routing knocks a chunk more off for me.
  24. warwickhunt
    There isn't the option to reply to wanted ads... ever! Folks have to respond with pm's
  25. warwickhunt
    I've got the unlined fretless version of this and the amount of 'mwwwwaah' available from these is ridiculous, mainly down to the resonator body construction. Glad you mentioned the weight because these are a god send if a heavy bass is the bane of your life. GLWTS
