bagsieblue Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Thought long and hard on this one,.....I've not been playing it much recently. Warwick Dolphin Pro 2 - £699 Shipped Mainland UK, or collect from Chorley, Lancs - No trades. No serial number anywhere that I can see. There are varying accounts as to whether the were made in Germany or Japan - plenty of info online should you want to research more. Although , that said, I don't think you'll find a clear answer on it!! Fairly rare basses and even more so in the burst finish, I think I have only seen one other burst finish (in green) with the others being solid colours. Definitely a Pro 2, not a Pro 1 as stated on the truss rod cover!. 2 J type pickups, pull up on volume pot to bypass the active loom. Controls are Volume / Blend and a stacked bass/Treble EQ. I bought this on here about 7 years ago. In my time of ownership it has had a new truss rod as the previous one was ineffective. The ding on the underside was also touched up for cosmetic reasons and to prevent it getting any worse. As well as the normal dings and dents commensurate with age there is a hairline crack originating from a tuning peg screw and a lacquer split from a control cavity screw.These were checked over by the guitar tech (Manchester Guitar Tech - Steve Robinson) who fitted the new truss rod and I was told they are stable, they've also had some glue dropped in for added peace of mind. There has been no movement in these in the 7 years that I've owned the bass. Understandably, that is a comment you'll have to take on trust / at face value, but please see my feedback for assurance of an honest / open transaction.

TheGreek Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I had a SN version of this in Afzelia - the only Warwick I've ever got on with. The grain was very much like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 The Pro II is a really underrated bass. I’ve had 2 Pro Is and a Pro II and the II was way better than one of the Is IMO. In fact I’ve had a few Warwicks and the only one I liked better - and only marginally - was the ‘91 Pro I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
