thanks guys.

In a word, awesome. Nice and light, well balanced, two humbuckers, active preamp and a 3 way coil tap on each humbucker pretty much means there isnt a bass sound you couldnt get from it. As long as you're comfy with the modern chunky warwick neck I say get one.

+1. Very, very nice basses. The most versatile bass I've owned.

I recently got one as a backup gigging bass as my streamer was getting a bit battered but i can foresee this taking over as my main bass in the future!

I've got one in the for sale forum at the moment. I'd keep it, but I'm going totally Status (apart from my TRB-6!)

Awsome bass, as the others have said, amazing versatility, huge punch & not much not to like.

Great sound,great neck,bloody heavy.Flogged mine as it aggravated my bad back.

How does the sound compare to a Spector. Play one of the old NS2000Q at the moment.

Thanks

The Warwick has more of a balanced sound than the Spector. I was playing a nice Euro Spector 5 in SC the other day. Compared it against an FNA Jazzman. The Warwick has the more wooden sound, but the Spector is the much brighter bass. Would still go for a Warwick in preference, though.
