Denzel Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) This bass is not being used enough. I'll hate seeing it go but it needs an owner that will make the most of it and I currently have other priorities. This is a 'modern' 2004 model SS2. Afzelia body, Ovankol in the neck, wenge fb, Mec 3band eq and original Mec pickups, drop D tuner on the E. I have replaced the horrible crappy plastic nut with an 'adjustanut 3' in brass. While I was on the warwick web shop site I thought I'd buy a standard E tuner as well. The E tuner is brand new and unmounted. I like my strings well worn in / pretty dead. The strings on it at the moment are round wounds with plenty of tone in them but not 'zingy'. I will include a set of Thomostik flatwounds as well in the sale. Sale also includes two warwick cleaning cloths, two tins of wax and a nice warwick soft bag. Condition of the bass is mint. I can not find a mark on it. Very well looked after. I have owned and played many Warwick bases in the last 10yrs and this truly is the best warwick has to offer. Even played unplugged, each note can be felt in your body! The body of the bass is super comfortable and the neck is very fast. It's joy to play and tonal variety it as good as it gets. (The more I describe it the less I want to sell it!). This bass will get an inspection and set up for its new owner by my local guitar shop so you can be assured it is a tip top bass. **£1550 is now the asking price.** Collection from Ashton, Bristol preferred. Shipping will be at your cost and has to be tracked and insured. I will pack it extremely well. I will post pictures tonight.

Denzel Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Just inspected it under the light and has a slight nail ding above the neck pickup. Pretty standard on a wick that has been played for a few years. The price is firm and I'm looking for the money only. No trades. Be quick before I change my mind and keep this beauty. Thanks, Pete (Denzel is one of my dogs) :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkusWarwick Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Superb wood graining. My bass of choice truth be told (using a 97 18v) and had a few.......theyr amazing basses. Anyone considering it should jump to it, theyr too good to miss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkusWarwick Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I will say ( in my experience), you get much "drier" tones from this and its ovangkol neck, whereas my 97 has a wenge neck thats more gutsy and a sustains a little longer. I thoroughly recommend this though and were it not for me losing my job at the end of this month, id buy it myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denzel Posted October 19, 2013 Author Share Posted October 19, 2013 As MarkusWarwick has said above, this is an amazing bass. Also agree on the tone description. It certainly has a different quality to the wenge necks. Although I can not imagine more sustain than this bass can deliver. And that's with a well bedded in string set. Harmonics are also abundant all over the board. No dead notes here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denzel Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 Yep. That weight is about right. The Afzelia body is weighty but the combination of curved back with perfect neck balance makes this bass very comfortable indeed. 😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
