Now sold! 

Up for sale is my incredible, very limited and very collectible, unlined fretless Warwick Corvette Standard, Special Edition from 2009 - made in Germany. This bass is number 8 from a very limited run of only 30 basses! It features a beautiful birdseye poplar top over a swamp ash body, maple neck and what I believe is either an ebony or rosewood fretboard. It has passive Bassline pickups paired with an active MEC 2 band pre amp.

 

This is a truly exceptional instrument - not only is the tone incredible and versatile but the bass itself is very ergonomic and exceptionally well balanced - IMO it is one of the best balancing Warwick by far - thanks to the long upper horn. It is very lightweight too at only 3,45kg/7,6lb.

 

Controls are vol(with push/pull for active/passive switching), pickup blend, bass and treble.

The bass is in excellent condition as you can see from the photos! There are 3 very small dings which I have highlighted in the photos. There is also one other mark but I dont know if it is a scratch or part of the wood grain- i have highlighted it just in case(see the last 3 photos). There is some wear to the logos on the pickups which I have shown in the photos. All of the electronics work perfectly, as does the truss rod and the hardware.
