dwh87 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hmmm around £2000 is not so bad, i was expecting it to be closer to £3k. I will keep an eye out for prices over the next few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golchen Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) I don't know anyone who can make a bass look more phallic!

Delberthot Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Does the knee and hip replacement come included in the price if you play like he does for too long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwoff Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Its a great looking bass, new body shape sounds wierd with the flat back and no cutout. But then its a signature model at the end of the day. Exactly what he wanted so probably not right for most other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen him six times in total with different bands and each time its the same. Sloppy. Sure he has aggressive attack and speed but that doesn't make him a good bassist IMHO.I judge him on is what I have seen and it aint good. Simple as.

Chris2112 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) I don't think he's a bad player, and he was great for the aggressive tunes of the St. Anger stuff (although the lines on the album are amazingly played too), but I just can't help thinking "Jason would be better in this situation".

I mourned the day I heard RJ joined Metallica... beneath the man no matter what way you look at it. That particular machine's been broken (probably beyond repair) since the black album.

HMX Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 It's one of those basses that I'd hang on my wall, and shine every couple of weeks. The price tag kind of echoes that too - it would never tempt me. The whole point of a Warwick, for me (you may agree) is the beautiful body woods.
