BigJim Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 (edited) [b]SOLD[/b] I've had this for about 9 months now and it's served me well. It's got a 2 piece flame maple body, ovankal neck and wenge fingerboard. The classic Warwick 2 piece bridge and just-a-nut-1 which is the classic old brass one. Made in 1997. It's a great bass with what looks like a musicman pickup, however, it's 2 MEC j-style pickups with independent treble and bass controls for each (2 stacked knobs) and another stacked knob for volume and blend. More than welcome to come over and try it out.

jimbobothy Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Yeah, I agree that it's a more sought after wenge neck. You can tell by the colour of the grain, especially on the back of the headstock. Not sure when Warwick changed to using Ovankol for the neck wood but around '98 or just after. You shouldn't have any balance problems aswell due to that killer top horn!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Gorgeous bass and a good price, my favourite Warwick shape! Btw all Warwick Fortresses will have wenge necks bar the odd custom one (there was one on the Warwick forum with a maple neck) as they ceased production in 1999 iirc. Even though ovangkol necks were apparently used before then (in 1998) all standard Fortress models use wenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
