German Warwick Corvette $$ Special Edition 2010  No.30/85.

 

Hi, this is a very special bass. One of only 85 made and one of only two fitted with Bartolini Pickups and 3 band MEC EQ instead of the normal two band found on a $$.

 

The body is a 50/50 split of Swamp ash and Tigerwood. The neck is  slim and very fast, made of Ovangkol with a Wenge fretboard with 24  bell brass frets, and brass adjustable nut. The original tuners have been replaced with superior Gotoh tuners (the Warwick tuners often break).

 

If that is not enough the bass is also fitted with Bartolini pickups and 3 band EQ. Each pickup can be switched between Parallel, Single Coil and Series mode, the variety of sounds is amazing. The active MEC EQ has a stack-pot volume and pickup blend with push pull passive mode control, with individual high, mid and low frequency controls.

 

Condition is 9.9/10 I cant find a mark on it but its a 12 year old bass so there must be one somewhere. Everything is in excellent working order, electronics, bridge, truss rod etc. fretwork is immaculate.

 

The bass comes with all the official paperwork, Warwick user kit. and gig bag.  Collection would be preferred but I can buy a box for shipping if needed. Shipping will be at the buyers expense. 

 

Weight is 4.5kg, balance is perfect.

 

I am willing to discuss trades for a 4 or 5 string Jazz

 

Any questions please ask :)

Amazing bass, still haven't heard another Warwick like it.  Barts sound fantastic! 

You are absolutely right mate. Its going to be a shame to let it go, but current projects require something a little more old school, and having hit my half century this year I am finding it a bit weighty for a four hour rehearsal. I know I'm going to miss it, it always just seem s to sit just right in mix and is so flexible it can really cover everything.
