Custom made for me a few years back, this is a superb neck through Les Paul version of a Bass 6, 30" scale, wenge neck and body, flame maple top under a nitro gold top. As it wears, that flame will reveal itself and it will look even more incredible. Seymour Duncan p90 stacked humbucker with coil tap on the volume control (pull up). Sounds immense - but it is heavy. 5kg...it used to be heavier if you can believe that! It went back to John for some additional weight relief (hence the different grained sections on the back, this is where the weight relief happened and then John made wooden covers to fill the weight relief pockets). Definitely more of a studio than stage instrument unless you have stronger shoulders than me. Some very minor marks but overall in very good condition. I love this thing but since getting an even more special bass 6 (EB2 converted to EB6...) I just don't use this enough and I need the space. Comes with old but high quality padded gig bag. Can be collected or can be posted at cost.

Beautiful bass, but at the end of the day, I just don’t play it at all, which is a crying shame honestly. Here is Shaggys original description: ”1998 German made Warwick FNA bass (Corvette body shape, though it was never designated a Corvette). Lightweight swamp ash body with carved flame maple top, ebony pinstripe “binding” line in between. Amber “antique violin” finish, which seems to be a thin satin lacquer. Fully recessed Warwick straplocks (strap ends also supplied), gold plated hardware. Preamp (original factory fitted): Seymour Duncan 3-band 9V active circuit voiced specifically for MusicMan Stingray, with “slap bias” switching on vol control. Neck: Long (34’) scale 24-fret in ovangkol, with wenge board and JAN adjustable nut. Regularly waxed, so beautifully smooth. 2 mods to this bass: Original ceramic MEC pickup replaced with Aguilar AG 4M (Alnico V) MusicMan pickup; based on the original 1970’s MusicMan Stingray pickup. I personally much prefer the tone on this to the MEC; it’s slightly more scooped with prominent low mids, more growl and punch yet also more clarity. Original pickup included. Original neck swapped with one from a 2001 German made Warwick Streamer LX Jazzman. This was only because I preferred a slightly slimmer neck on the Streamer, and a slightly wider P profile neck on this bass. This has been my “go to” gigging bass over the last 6 years or so, simply because it’s so comfortable and ergonomic to play, and just always sounds good. I’ve never played another single-pickup bass so responsive to changes in right hand technique, whether with pick or fingers.” It’s a really fabulous thing, but just doesn’t get used. Trades…. Fender Jazz or a Yamaha BB (Japan) is favourite, we’re also looking for a decent double bass here at Rayman towers. I would rather get cash to be honest, but you can always ask. Warwick gig bag included Thanks for having a gander Russ

You may be familiar with the expression, "now there's something you don't see every day". I suspect that it is appropriate in this case. These handmade basses are each unique and they're a right bugger to date reliably, but this one ticks all the boxes for the company's heyday: 1964-66. Not a re-issue or a restoration job, this is absolutely the real deal ... a bass that was bought while surf music was in the charts and then gigged relentlessly for many years. You want mojo? It's got mojo? You want to see what genuine buckle-rash looks like when no angle grinder was involved? As far as I can tell, this ws all-original and unmolested when I bought it many years ago, and I've looked after it. Yes, all that wear was there when I bought it. Currently strung with Black Beauties (or something very similar - hey, it was a long time ago, alright?) this has all the shortscale thuddy goodness you'd expect from this era. Comes with the cheap-but-sturdy rigid gigbag it rests on in these photos, but realistically I'm not about to entrust this thing to a courier. It might get scratched. Collection from Harrow or the West End, possible meet-up within a sensible distance from Harrow.

This is my old bass, I used and enjoyed it for a good amount of gigs over a 2 year period. It sounds huge, with no dead spots and is sonically a great middle ground between Fender P, J and Stingray. Why did I move it on, then? I'd used the bass in 2 bands that I stopped playing with around the same time. I was left with a bitter taste and wanted to rip it up and start again so to speak; I'm yet again using / doing battle with a Fender Precision. There's nothing quirky, student or deliberately whimsical about the Fallout design. It's louder and got a fuller spectrum than pretty well anything I've ever used. It'll do any style very well. GLWTS
