Having a bit of a shuffle with some new purchases coming in and could do with selling a 4 stringer bass to balance the funds a little. So i only intend on selling this one....don't snooze a lose as they say : Here is a 2000 black Warwick FNA bass, single humbucker.. I'd actually quite like to keep this bass as it's very versatile, i got it in a trade some months back with the intention of selling it on but I gigged it in my functions band for the last 3-4 gigs ...i was blown away with the sound and it seems superior to any other Warwicks I've ever had. Low action, great condition, active 4 EQ, - I'm thinking a bargain £450 on this as Warwicks don't seem to command the prices they used too - although i'm sure it's worth more...god knows why they go so cheap as the build quality and playability is phenomenal (and I've been through about 50 basses to compare it against!!! Bloody GAS) ....as i say happy to keep this one but putting it out there as I fancy a change [attachment=229009:IMG_2768.jpg] [attachment=229010:IMG_2769.jpg] [attachment=229011:IMG_2772.jpg] Happy to courier, buyer will have to pay costs or collect from Plymouth/Tavistock - Devon -

[quote name='Musashimonkey' timestamp='1471287271' post='3111888'] I think that may depend on the type of music and the size of the venue. But it looks great to me, I remember enjoying the sweet tone these push out. GLWTS. [/quote] Yeah, you need headroom for reggae
-
[quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1471283903' post='3111841'] Really wow that sounds impressive [/quote] I was initially hesitant about the EQ options but was very surprised that you can get a lot of tone with just the VPF/VLE, from clean funk, warm soul, defined rock, and dubbing reggae...brilliant combo

Superb amps these, I've been using one with a 7 piece functions band without an extension cab for a while now and i still have to turn it down - i'm sure the wattage is an under estimate as they're really bloody loud, never fart out, and a great tone too. GLWTS

Bought a Musicman case from Nick. He was kind enough to agree to meet me at a service station on my travels...ironically to pick up a musicman bass without a case. Perfect! Thumbs up from me -thanks.

Did a recent bass trade with Mark, great comms all the way and no hassles. A credit to basschat and 100% trustworthy fella.

Sold a lovely 75 Rickenbacker to Kevin, no hassle and easy sale all round and although sad to see it go i feel it went to a good home. Totally 100% trustworthy and a credit to basschat - enjoy the Ricky (there's a strong chance that Jack Bruce did )

Richard assembled, set up, finished a neck, and made me an impeccable 70's jazz replica. Having just recently parted ways with my original 74 for financial reasons Richard stepped forward to complete the neck, assemble with RI parts, that recreated the 74's spirit in this build - I'm very happy! I wouldn't hesitate to use Richard again for his fine skills. He is top chap, great com's and a total gent - i am eternally grateful for your work and will treasure this personal bass

Did a deal with Norm on my vintage jazz and his Musicman. Great communications all the way and we eventually met up at a random KFC in the Midlands to finalise the deal. I'm glad the old Jazz went to a good player and home. Norm is a top guy and a total credit to the basschat community, 100% trustworthy!

I wrote a book about being in a covers band

Kindle version bought, looking forward to some beach reading today Good on you for doing this Dave. -
I can certainly confirm Granjur has done a top job on this bass, and at a very affordable price too. Really looking forward to gigging it tonight. The Fender 74's pickups sound great, lovely slap tone. The neck is super smooth and feels wonderful and has kept the old spirit of the 74 I owned up until recently alive. Really looking forward to gigging some funk and soul on it later Thanks Richard, you're a true star and a credit to Basschat

Wow....the man from Del Monte says 'flipping eck! I'm lucky to be the owner', looks cracking and yes totally love a low action - have you plugged it in and played? Any thoughts on the sound & those 74's ? Great works, thank you

I never thought I'd end up in a weddings band being mostly into funk, reggae, live drum & bass & prog rock but I took it on doing the mundane set list ( although admittedly not as bad as the OP's ) and have added my own flavour here and there over the last 4 years. Lots of buffets, occasional decent meal, occasional Accomodation, mostly appreciative crowds, sexy bridesmaids, and a few pennies at the end of it all to fund the GAS....I also think my playing has improved as has my understanding of music theory...give it a whirl, you maybe surprised and if not your thing I'm sure there will be plenty of deps about where money is concerned

Not necassarily my top 5 favourite but the 5 that are inspirational to my playing I guess: Roly Wynn (RIP) - Ozric Tentacles Mike Howlett - Gong Aston 'Familyman' Barrett - The Wailers Bootsy Collins Flea 5 favourite Jaco Miller Wooten Johnson Graham

[quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1465717324' post='3070343'] Top 5 inspirational to progress, rather than start playing would be Flea Aston Barrett Robert DeLeo Sly Dunbar Billy Talbot [/quote] I assume you mean Robbie Shakespeare as Sly was the drummer...unless of course he did some bass work somewhere?
