    spree posted a topic in Basses For Sale

    Its got a few bumps and dings here and there, all shown in the pics I hope. None them are structural or affect the playability of the bass. I've checked the two cracks around the neck pocket and I'm confident that they are only in the lacquer and do not got through into the wood. EQ is a Bartolini NTBT and the pup is a Seymour Duncan. I added the BadAss II when I recieved the bass as I didnt like the Gotoh 201 it came with. I'm looking for £900, we can talk delivery or postage dependant on location Thanks for looking

    [quote name='SMART' post='170062' date='Apr 4 2008, 11:21 PM']Lane Poor pups stopped being made when he went out biz some years ago now. The guys at Modulus then took one of those superb pups to their friends at Seymour Duncan who then made a copy of it which is now supplied as the standard pup for the Flea bass and only for this bass (it is not available separately from Seymour Duncan's Basslines series only with a Modulus Flea bass). So you're getting the same pickup but made by Seymour Duncan. Original Lane Poor Flea bass pups are now extremely rare. Hope that helps! Ciao Ian[/quote] I see Will it come with a BadAss II bridge then?

    [quote name='paul, the' post='164848' date='Mar 27 2008, 09:57 PM']Is the fretboard Brazilian rosewood? It's very dark (and that's a very good thing). And that bridge is hot. +1 on the bass looking awesome, great job![/quote] Erm, i suppose it could be, its allparts neck. Though I did oil it until it wouldnt absorb anymore The bridge is a Hipshot A, first time i've used one and am very impressed with it

    hi gents, thanks for the comments I do have a black pickguard for it, but the highlight of the grain would be hidden underneath a pickguard, and a clear one doesnt appeal to me either. As for the control plate, i dont like the aesthetic of rear routed jazzes.

    [quote name='Mottlefeeder' post='164185' date='Mar 26 2008, 11:44 PM']Are you sure? I see two long words, but my Corvette has Corvette Std on the truss rod cover.[/quote] seems pretty hit and miss, am sure a major fan of ze germanz could tell us if there was a definitive date when Warwick started abbreviating but the basses on this page seem to be a mix of STDs ( ) and Standards [url="http://www.basscentral.com/warwick/corvette.shtml#standard"]http://www.basscentral.com/warwick/corvette.shtml#standard[/url]

    [quote name='bigjohn' post='164050' date='Mar 26 2008, 08:42 PM']Classy. 2 questions : 1) Where did you get the neck from? 2) How did you cut the body? Nice one. John[/quote] Thanks John The ebay links at the bottom of the first post should answer both questions!

    [quote name='BassManKev' post='149570' date='Mar 1 2008, 07:05 PM']could it be because only one 9v battery appears to be powering both the aguilar and the emg's?? just occured to me, but i shouldnt see why as long as the battery is fresh, which it is[/quote] shouldnt there be one battery for each? a picture of the wiring would really help
