NOW £ 1500 My very rare and simply amazing bass is up for grabs. Warwick Stryker Mahogany. A very rare opportunity to own a bass made in collaboration with the John Entwistle Estate to celebrate his contribution to the world of Bass and his design relationship with the Warwick bass company in Germany. Made in very little numbers this bass is the Mahogany version which has awesome mahogany wings on a Maple and Ebony striped through neck. The resonance given off by this bass has to to felt to be believed, its almost alive!!! The headstock is another rare feature as these were issued with the standard Warwick paddle headstock but a very small number were given the 'Entwistle Beak' which makes this bass not only ultra sexy but a true rarity. It has Gold hardware and sports the not so standard 3 band EQ MEC reverse P pick up configuration. The bass is currently strung with brand new Optima 24ct Gold Strings as used by The Ox himself. It plays fast and strong with a great evenness of tone across the strings. It balances perfectly with no 'neck dive' and this is one serious bass that cuts through the mix like an absolute beast and much like its partner in crime (The Buzzard) can offer devastating tones alongside light nuances and harmonics. The bass is in excellent play worn condition with very slight marking and evidence of the neck strap pin being moved. Warwick say: With the full support of the John Entwistle estate, Warwick is proud to introduce the Stryker, which is a design that John made popular both with the Who and on his solo projects. The Stryker features a mahogany body and neck-thru design. This bass is truly a beautiful piece of art. Art that rocks, that is! The Stryker comes loaded with active MEC Gold P-style pick-ups, installed in the familiar “mirror image” manner that John favored. Inside the control cavity you will find an active MEC 3-band preamp that perfectly supports the blend of spectacular tone woods that this bass features. The Stryker is the total package when it comes to a bass that plays as great as it looks. Weighs just under 11lbs on my electronic scales & comes equipped with a Warwick gigbag and strap locks. Value on a trade this bass should be around the £2k mark but im happy to go with a price drop to £1600 Im looking for an interesting 4, 5 or 6 string bass.....Warwick , Mike Lull, Spector kind of thing This bass is a killer and is only available because Ive got a flock of Buzzards and they are very similar except for the ergonomics. http://s1189.photobucket.com/user/Col4string/library/Warwick%20Stryker

I really cant believe this is still here. amazing bass for silly money....same old "stuff to sell" story here. But she rreally is a peach! Have a bump

[quote name='hiram.k.hackenbacker' timestamp='1383137779' post='2260602'] I don't have much GAS these days since buying a Dingwall, but that sir is very nice indeed! [/quote] Nice armoury! I can see why GAS doesnt visit. Can i be bold and ask, did you get the Lee Sklar from Mark? Stunning I love this Status too, ive made my offer but was unsuccessful.

Last bump before she goes off in another direction.

Not looking to trade by any chance?

Pretty pretty

Fancŷ going spiky??

Its a shame your after a Fender style bass, my spiky Warwick is about as different as its possible to get.

Withdrawn

Stryker??

Mustaine used the Jackson KV with two long points. Anthrax used these RR ones early on but they seem to few and far between. I think Andy Sneap (Sabbat) used one but I think it was a Fernandes, it was a long time ago. I bought for nostalgic reasons and its now just a wall ornament. Not fair on the wood that grew etc etc

Your right. Hammett has done pretty well for himself though, i doubt he worries about these things much ha ha. He must be the guitar's most famous user?

[color=#333333]Jackson Randy Rhoads 5 Floyd Rose as new and in mint unmarked condition. Fitted Jackson hard case. Thru neck with Seymour Duncan pups and top line original Floyd Rose.
