  1. commercially there may be enough rich U2 fans and those who just like this style of bass to sell 20-30 units in first couple of years (similar to Zender?) - I suspect PR from Clayton's increased use of Warwick is the real deal here - he's def using Streamers and Reverso more in public and I would see general boost to Warwick to come from this that makes the Reverso sales pretty irrelevant. Also pretty surprised by the reaction - seems the Entwistle crowd are keeping quiet cause this looks like its aimed fair and square in the Buzzard etc style camp which seems to have a loyal if rather exclusive following.
  2. assume that is one of the original Precision basses I saw him play in the 82 tour. Still in my top 5 gigs of all time. I was at the Coasters, Tiffany's, and Playhouse gigs of the New Gold Tour - brilliant info and photos here including more of the Precision.

Beautifully produced album as well.
