2008 Warwick Corvette fretless (bubinga, active, German) £400 barg! ON HOLD

[Clarky]

Got this off BCer dougal last month but I simply cannot cope with the 5.4kg (11.8 pounds) weight. It's in fabulous, near mint condition, plays beautifully and has a lovely thick unlined ebony board. Strung with new Status Hotwire half rounds.

I'm looking to get back the total bargain £400 I paid (a new Korean Pro Series in the same spec costs over a grand!). Comes with Rockbag, documentation file, body wax, strap locks etc.

Pickup preferred in London. If this is not possible I will post ... but I will give it time first to see if anyone can meet me.

By way of background (and discussion over whether this is German or Korean made), see dougal's FS thread: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/160973-fs-2008-warwick-corvette-standard-fretless-4-gone/page__p__1471034__hl__corvette%20fretless__fromsearch__1#entry1471034"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry1471034[/url]

Not looking for bass trades as I have enough. Might consider a trade for a vgc MarkBass F1 amp.

Hope dougal doesn't mind me pinching his pics from his FS ad:

For those who had not spotted it, there is a trade option in the OP against a MarkBass F1 head

Played this for an hour last night. It really is a fabulous bass with a lovely slick ebony neck. For those without problems carrying a heavy bass, this is a genuinely superb fretless at an amazing price

[Clarky]

[sup]I have had a possible offer to ship this to mainland Europe. However, for the time being I prefer a face-to-face handover[/sup]

Wish I was good enough to play fretless - this looks gorgeous!

[Clarky]

I'm not good enough - hasn't stopped me

The cats of SW London have all packed their bags and left ....

This is now on hold, pending a meet-up in next 2 weeks

Thanks Mart,
that's my ad on the Warwick forum.

I already contacted Clarky a while ago regardng this bass , but he prefered a local sale over shipping the bass,
so i'm hoping for another one to pop up.

If the deal should fall through you know where to find me Clarky!

Picked this up yesterday. As Clarky said, there's not a mark on and all the original tags etc are present and correct.

When I get back from France I'll post some pictures in the Warwick porn thread. In. The meantime, I'm spending my time waxing it.

Jeez, it's a heavyweight bit of kit, though!

Thanks again, Clarky, for being a gent.
