[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1376123198' post='2169895'] depends if it is in a fancy shaped mold is it like this? from what i understand the number of nodules around the top can have significant impact on the harmonic overtones whereas a plain round mold will probably give you a bit more of a P sound [/quote]

SHOOTOUT ...fender Jazz , P, V musicman stingray, bongo
karlfer replied to funkgod's topic in General Discussion
Rather liked the Bongo to say the least. Loved the video, missed it first time round. Even the slap was quite nice and didn't make me want to put a pitchfork through both my ears. -

Fender Precision USA 2011 black/maple combo (withdrawn)
karlfer replied to lushuk's topic in Basses For Sale
[quote name='lushuk' timestamp='1376262257' post='2171580'] Ok, ill look forward to that, lets hope it goes well! Im looking for close as ive seen tatty ones go for around £650 [/quote] Good thing you are looking for sale only as I was going to offer my Geddy including case, plus £150. Which completely renders useless my attempts to get to two basses Again, don't usually comment on price, but that is a very fair price being asked. GLWTS, Karl. -
[quote name='bengovier182' timestamp='1376247315' post='2171321'] I agree it's a very good price, just a bit more than i have at the moment. If it's still here when i can afford it I'll snap it up Always the case; when I've got money, there's no basses, when there's basses, there's no money lol. Ben. [/quote] Amen to that brother, amen to that And to make things worse, my ideal Precision (USA, Maple board, Lake Placid Blue) has just come up on Bumtree. I really MUST stop looking

Thanks for the comments gents. Sorry Ben, no idea. They appear to be the same as on the Japan models, which were made for 14 years. It looks like whatever the blocks are, they appear to be under the fretboard lacquer. You certainly can't feel the blocks. Seems to me the couple of Japan Geddy's that came up a while back at around £450 seem to make this look a bit expensive. I generally don't comment on price, but apart from the infuriating cymbal incident, this is immaculate and only a year old. They were both to say the least a bit mojo'd and neither of them were the more expensive sunburst. So, as against a new "real" price of £760, I think £530, or £560 with Gator hard case is VERY fair. Cheers, Karl.

"What's it sound like?" With the Thumb being a lot of Maple with Swamp Ash, it is of course a bit brighter but that chest thumping Thumb noise is in there. Especially bright top end as I have just put some new strings on However, it has typical deep Warwick growl. Volume is push/pull for active/passive. Pup pan with me is nearly always round to the front pup. With bass and treble actives full on it is bloody thunderous. More pissed off P than Jaco, but obviously with amp/eq, most things can be coaxed out of it. Quite nice for chain saw murderer power chords though It is a very light bass and very well balanced, just didn't realise with 24 frets I don't know where I am on the 'board half the time. It is a lot of money, but they don't come up often. Despite the deflated prices of Warwicks on Basschat, it's a purdey thing to have on a stand behind me at gigs in case of a broken string. And I will happily do that rather than lose a lot on it. Cheers, Karl.

They do look damn good and all the important parts are there. A clue on price wouldn't go amiss, I always think "less is unsurprisingly more"

[quote name='nottswarwick' timestamp='1376074250' post='2169497'] I'm loving this bass. I expect my MTD Bart modified bass will not be of interest though [/quote] Sorry Chris, lovely bass but not really for me I'm afraid. Martyn, pm'd you back. Don't get carried away you Warwick addict you. Cheers, Karl.
