funkypenguin Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) I'm playing my warwick pretty much exclusively now, with my P bass filling the other gigs, and i've gotten so used to the tight string spacing on my warwick that this bass isnt getting any playing time, so i'm putting her up for sale. The pickups, preamp and ramp are all aftermarket and cost around £300 to install (all work done by Jon Shuker). Full specs for the bass are as follows... Swamp Ash body - Wenge Accent - Swamp Ash Top (bookmatched) 5 piece Maple/ebony neck Rosewood Fingerboard 34" Scale Length 24 frets Gold Hardware 19mm String Spacing Individual ABM Bridge Units EMG DC45 active pickups EMG BQC 3 band parametric preamp Adjustable Ramp Comes with hard case The bass cost me £600 new, plus £300 worth of upgrades. They don't make this model anymore as i recall. There is some cosmetic damage so Im looking for £500 for the bass. Setup with medium low action and Warwick Black Label Strings. Will ship in Gator hard case at buyers expense, more photos available on request [attachment=135620:post-1539-1248973143.jpg] [attachment=135621:post-1539-1248973181.jpg] Edited June 10, 2013 by funkypenguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkypenguin Posted May 31, 2013 Author Share Posted May 31, 2013 Cheers, it sounds great and plays very well. The spacing is ideal if you're looking to have a crack at playing a 6er after playing on 4 strings. BUMP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam85 Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Ok definitely interested dude. I'd be coming up from London, so a trial is probably out. Any chance of a few more pics? Just wondering how much cosmetic damage there is? Appreciate it mate. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkypenguin Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Not a problem, i'll take a whole set of detailed photos tomorrow as soon as i get in from rehearsal. there are a couple of scratches on the body and one or two on the fingerboard but thats more or less it. Some of the finish on the ramp has worn away (paint plus roundwound strings....) but this would be a really simple case of respraying. Its all cosmetic, it doesnt affect sound/playability in any way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
