A couple of USA's have gone for that on here recently too.

I'm not saying it isn't but the body doesn't look like a Warmoth in these pics. As I said earlier, it looks more rounded and less slab-like than standard offerings. Maybe new pics can allay this?

[quote]Warmoth was the company which made me the body[/quote]

Easy to prove that - the neck pocket on the body will be clearly marked with their guitar-playing turtle (terrapin, whatever..) logo, and the Word "Warmoth" - get a shot of that and you'll definitely move some of those parts, if not the whole bass.

LOL, I've been wanting to say that for a few days! The seller seems to be going out of his way not to tell us these things, or perhaps it's a marketing ploy, a slow reveal, a bass provenance striptease?

Trouble is it's a strip that gets you all excited at the start and then what's underneath isn't quite what you expected ...

So, ok, maybe they dropped the price by 25%, but still.

[Nick449]

the bass was bought 2 years ago, prices do change

having abit of trouble getting the camera to connect with the computer, but will hopefully get it sorted soon!

[munkonthehill]

is it also possible to confirm which wizard pups are installed, a reciept or ref No would help and we could contact Andy ourselves,,,,,cheers

[ElCapitan]

It's a lovely looking bass. I hope the doubters are proved wrong. I'll reserve my judgement until we see the photo.

[Nick449]

Right, just located and put on the reciepts, i can understand why some of you were abit suspicious now!
the wizard pickups price was wrong as well as some sources such as the body! I've now found the body to be from WD Music, sorry for the mistakes guys!!

[warwickhunt]

This is so funny. If this turns out to have pics confirming all the bits are as described I'll give at least... Ooooh £250 for the bass!

Sorry not meaning to extract the urine but this [u]could have been[/u] such a simple sale.

Neck 170
Body 276
Badass 91
Neck Plate 15
Knobs 10
Tuners 60

Total 622

Another thing that doesn't quite add up... I bought a BlackWD Music body around 2 years ago at £180, and since then everything's been gradually increasing in price - sure enough they're now 219.68 - how odd that you managed to pay £276

Nice Mac screenshots BTW

but your forgetting VAT
andd i have no idea! :S im assuming you mean yours was american alder as well? hhmm

[Stewart]

You are suggesting that the bass cost you £850 - you also profess to believe that it's value is the same thing.
I don't think I need to say that I percieve things differently

WD Painted bodies currently cost 219.68 inc VAT and they were 180 inc VAT around a couple of years ago

Had the body been a Warmoth, I might have offered to buy it from you
It isn't, and you don't have anything else I want

Have a form of luck with your sale
