Haha, weird.[/quote] You should check out the Warwick CS pricing options... I love Warwicks but the cost of the options is ludicrous. They actually charge you extra for wanting a 2 band EQ instead of the standard higher spec 3 band. That's more money for wanting lower spec and there is absolutely no modification/amendment required to the body of the bass! Honestly I could go on but I'd be kicked out of the 'W' club for dissing them I also have to agree that I've seen basses costing a total of £200 with higher quality quilting (the Yamaha BB range from a few years back all have stunning tops), never mind charging £600 on top of the cost of a standard Streamer. I must stress I'm not dissing this bass as it looks great and I'm sure the owner loves it dearly but I am disheartened by some of Warwicks pricing... well if HPW has read this I've no chance of getting that sponsorship. Ah s*d it I've owned enough of his basses over the years to qualify/justify having a pop now and again. Edited December 20, 2007 by warwickhunt
thumb4bob Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 thats a very nice bass, not my cup of tea ive never been a fan of quilted maple but im sure somebody will get a great instrument have a BUMP
