  1. I haven't even received them yet, but thanks to Franks generosity, my open mike night will be rather percussive from now on.

  2. Got this recently and as much as I love it and it's ace, I'm just preferring my P basses at the moment and I've got my eye on something so it's available

     

    German Warwick Corvette $$ Special Edition 2010  No.30/85.

     

    One of only 85 made and one of only two fitted with Bartolini Pickups and 3 band MEC EQ instead of the normal two band found on a $$, was a special edition for German suppliers in 2010.

     

    The body is a 50/50 split of Swamp ash and Tigerwood. The neck is slim and very fast, made of Ovangkol with a Wenge fretboard with 24 bell brass frets, and brass adjustable nut. The original tuners have been replaced with superior Gotoh tuners (the Warwick tuners often break).

     

    If that is not enough the bass is also fitted with Bartolini pickups and 3 band EQ. Each pickup can be switched between Parallel, Single Coil and Series mode, the variety of sounds is amazing. The active MEC EQ has a stack-pot volume and pickup blend with push pull passive mode control, with individual high, mid and low frequency controls.

     

    Condition is 9.9/10 I cant find a mark on it but its a 12 year old bass so there must be one somewhere. Everything is in excellent working order, electronics, bridge, truss rod etc. fretwork is immaculate.

     

    The bass comes with all the official paperwork, Warwick user kit. and gig bag. Shipping will be at the buyers expense. 

     

    Weight is 4.5kg, balance is perfect.

    I can confirm the necks on these basses are lovely to play. I'd heard the shape described as being a "modern C" shape / profile, and it certainly  felt a lot like a Fender US Pbass I once had, which was the description given to the neck on that bass. It's quite slim, front-to-back, very easy on the left hand. There are times when I really wish I could have justified keeping mine, and I often ponder buying another... but I really mustn't! lol

    Really surprised this is still here.

    I know, plenty of interest though
