Ask anything you want to know about the bass (I'll forward messages to the actual seller..)

If you're interested in buying this, please contact me first.

That's a very pretty bass, and if it was a 4-stringer I'd be painfully tempted. But it ain't no "Custom Model" or "Special Edition" - the default Warwick spec for fretless is an ebony fingerboard with no markers on the board, and Stain High Polish is one of the standard finish options. So you could buy this bass new from any Warwick dealer. Admittedly, it would set you back £5300 RRP though!!

Good luck with the sale - cos the longer it stays on here, the more likely I am to succumb to temptation!

Well, Mr. Mart must be right about 'custom' thing.. Though, I was told that this bass specs were the best available(and the most expensive, I assume) you could get when ordering..

Yep, going by the current Warwick UK pricelist, that spec makes that Infinity just about the most expensive bass Warwick do (apart from the insanely priced signature models).

Couldn't he afford to buy something to cut the strings with after paying for the bass?

[Netballman]

...and to think I was actually in Lithuania a few weeks ago! Bugger...

[Faithless]

Forgot to tell that seller comes to London quite often so direct trade on meet is also possible!!

[zigmondo]

Oh dear.
My whale-blue PRS and my ACG. No offers.
There, I've said it.

[Faithless]

hehe

bump

[Faithless]

Major price drop because of X-mas coming in!

3000 pounds now, and we're open to offers!

Just to mind you, bass can be brought to London (owner of bass goes there every month or two) with no extra cost, so you can omit courrier expenses!

[BigBeatNut]

OMG what a stunner. Hollow, fretless, unlined and 5 strings ... my perfect bass.

Just no way I can afford it unfortunately

If you don't mind, could you tell me what the electronics do ? Does it allow you two mix the 3 pickups any way you want (like, for instance, 2 blends ?) or is the double-jazz at the bridge just effectively a single pickup ?

So, what I've been told..

It's actually two pickups, and you can mix them as follows:

Active/active
Active/pasive
Passive/Active
Passive/Passive

Or you can turn this thing off at all (and have a complete 'passive' mode I believe..?)

You can, no doubt, mix those two pickups, like 33/67, or 50/50 or solo one pickup..


Hope this helps,
If there's anything else you might want to know, don't hesitate, I'll forward your questies to the owner straight away..

If I may help (got the same bass, just fretted):

I have 1 stacked volume/balance pot, 1 mid pot and 1 stacked treble/bass pod.
Pulling the vol/bal pot puts the preamp in passive mode.
The twin J's normally run as 1 pickup wired in parallel mode. Pulling the treble/bass pot switches off the "middle" half of the twin J, so only the outer coil works as a normal J-singlecoil. So effectively you can switch between J/TJ and J/J configuration.

Should be the same on this lovely fretless, I guess.

Anyway, have a free bump on me and good luck selling this beauty.
