To be honest I wouldn't know ovangkol if it hit me in the face. When I said the custom shop I was meaning when the really started separate things with custom shop/pro series/rock bass stuff I know they did plenty of custom stuff before that. But they seemed to follow Fender in the custom shop, in doing it more openly commercial.
As for this bass I entered the serial in the website link and got exactly the same result as the email from Warwick. With that here are some Photo's of the neck as requested. To me it looks like flame maple in the middle with birds eye either side. I do appreciate all the help with it guys thanks.
