Grangur Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 What are your thoughts? What are you looking for in a bass right now? FWIW The finish on a Rockbass is nothing like full-blood Warwick. I would suggest that you should see one on thw flesh before ypu part with over 650 for one. IMHO I'd look for a 2nd hand Warwick rather than a RB. But that's just me.

marcus bell Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 just thought it looked pretty to be honest, im not really looking to buy just yet anyways, the main aim is to eventually get a kingbass artist again, but saving up around 1500 for a second hand bass seems a million miles away if im honest... sucks to be poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you buy this you'll be £650 further away from getting the Kingbass than you could be. I've been to this dealer's shop. The finish on these is like an OKish bass with varnish.

[/quote] You don't help yourself really though. My opinion is you've already said in the Warwick Love/Hate thread that you don't get on with the necks so I'd say save the hassle and save your money and buy your second/third King bass. Plus for the price you could find a proper Warwick Corvette secondhand. Edited October 13, 2013 by Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
