From Farnham, Surrey. Near Guildford and Farnborough

This bass is in pretty new condition. It’s never been gigged. It really has been a spare, but I've never had the occasion to use it. Any apparent nicks, blemishes, etc on the pictures are just highlights/dust etc. The bass is in mint as-new condition.

The bass had been fitted with a new set of flat-wound strings (worth about £40.00).

These Warwicks are of exceptional quality. They are light in weight with a comfortable and smooth playing position.  It has passive "Dynamic Correction" MEC J/J pickups and passive electronics producing the typical Warwick low-end growl along with a clear treble.

These generally go for well over £600.00 new, so this is a great bargain in as-new condition.

Hi Ikay,

Bump for a bargain

Discreet bought my Fender Rumble 500 after I kept it for a few days for him. Slight confusion with payment method at first. But all's well that ends well!

Nice guy. Would do business with him again.

In Farnham, Surrey.

Hi Dyerseve,

Thanks for the input. You're right of course. I had difficulty finding a black 5-string medium passive on sale right now. So I've modified it and added a  passive.

Cheers

Dyerseve, here's what the spec says:

"2 passive MEC j-style pickups, passive electronics, 1 tone control neck pickup, 1 tone control
bridge pickup, 1 balance control, 1 volume control"

I'll add this to the description.

I'm in Farnham, Surrey

The combo is about 18 months old and has been gigged about a dozen times. It’s still in excellent condition and comes with a padded fitted cover.

It’s rated at 500Watts, but with the combo only it gives out 300W. You need an extension cab to get the full 500. The 300W have been plenty loud for my purposes. At 16.5 Kilos it is also incredibly light for the output is gives.

£340.00 for combo and cover, but needs to be collected. It’s a bit too heavy for reliable shipping/packing from my point of view. Cheapest Internet price seems to be over £500.00. The cover itself cost £45.00 new from Hot Covers.

This bass is actually new. It’s never been played, gigged, or otherwise used. I bought it in a haze of GAS last year but have since been so preoccupied I never got it out to get up to speed with the 5-string thing. Now I have to clear out the herd and raise some dosh. Any apparent nicks etc are just highlights/dust etc. The bass is mint.

These Chinese made Warwicks are of exceptional quality. The bass is made from an alder body and Maple neck with ekanga venner stripes making it light weight, and allowing for a more comfortable and smooth play.

It has 2 passive "Dynamic Correction" MEC J/J pickups and passive electronics producing the typical Warwick low end growl along with a clear treble. There is 1 tone control neck pickup, 1 tone control bridge pickup, 1 balance control, 1 volume control

This is pretty much the ideal shorter scale 5 string, the 32” giving the B-string plenty punch than would be possible with 30”, and about the same as a standard 34”.

It generally goes new for over £700.00. Here is an advert for an passive version in black.

Bought a bass from Mike. All as described and perfectly packed. Shipped by Mike and received one day later. Smoothest transaction ever.

He is pleasure to do business with, and I would have no hesitation in dealing with him again or recommending him to others.

Thanks Mike
