Bass-Thing Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) This is currently also for sale on Ebay but I thought I'd post it on here too as there. Obviously these basses are only usually available as passive and quite frankly have virtually no tonal variation at all. It's only when I had an EMG 2 band EQ fitted that it started sounding brilliant. I bought it from the USA on Ebay a couple of years ago as a 'used 2nd' even though it was completely new with nothing wrong, apart from a small ding in the middle of the back. The only reason I'm selling it is because I don't really get on with small bodied basses and the top horn rather annoyingly sticks into my chest. Sounds great though. Ungigged and only one owner. Good as new. Comes with straplocks and Warwick truss rod tool and a gigbag. For Basschat members only I'm asking for £400 + £20 (or it can be collected from my office in Haywards Heath).

Bass-Thing Posted June 25, 2012 Author Posted June 25, 2012 Honestly folks this sounds just as good as the German made version and you won't get one in this condition, cheaper!
Bass-Thing Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Bump bump bumpitty bump.... some better pix may be in order!
Bass-Thing Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 BUMP! Somebody please take this off my hands. Warwick are seriously pissing me off at the moment and I want rid of it so I am open to sensible offers!
Bass-Thing Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 Bump! How do they pronounce Warwick in Germany exactly?
charic Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 Didn't know you could get Rockbass DoubleBucks... learn summat new every day!
Bass-Thing Posted July 5, 2012 Author Posted July 5, 2012 [quote name='Pinball' timestamp='1341467482' post='1719393'] Bump for a nice looking bass! [/quote] Thank you kind sir! They do look lovely. Sadly if you buy a new one it sounds awful - no top end or any tonal variation to be had. I had mine fitted with an EMG 2 band EQ and it now sounds brilliant! The only reason I'm selling is because small bodied basses look stupid on a big bloke like me and the top horn is very uncomfortable.

Bass-Thing Posted July 6, 2012 Author Posted July 6, 2012 [quote name='throwoff' timestamp='1341477231' post='1719499'] Hello mate, I have dopped you a PM [/quote] Having considered the sensible advice from my good friend Throwoff regarding a German $$ that went for similar money recently, I am dropping the price to £375. Postage is still £20 on top of this or you can come and pick it up. It's not German I know but it is absolutely mint and as good as new, only a new one costs £600 and doesn't have a preamp.
Bass-Thing Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 OK slightly strange Bump we have here. Folks if you are REMOTELY interested in buying my bass, you should definitely check out this one which is still for sale at an utterly ridiculous bargain price: http://basschat.co.uk/topic/172375-for-sale-warwick-corvette-double-buck-4-string-price-drop-l375/page__fromsearch__1 This is not a Rockbass but a genuine full on German Warwick Corvette $$ going for the same money as I want for my Rockbass. My bass is a bargain for the money so what does that make this? The reason I'm advertising this bass is because I thought it had been sold so I posted my Rockbass details on the same page to see if anyone was interested. Bang out of order as it's still unbelieveably for sale. If I got on with the Corvette shape I would buy it myself. Seriously you'd be bonkers to buy my bass while this one is still available.

Bass-Thing Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 BUMP!!! Why not buy them both and have a $$$$? Seriously for less than the price of a new German $$ you could have a German $$ plus a Chinese $$ as a backup!!!
Bass-Thing Posted August 19, 2012 Author Posted August 19, 2012 This is now sold. Thanks for your interest folks.
Bass-Thing Posted August 23, 2012 Author Posted August 23, 2012 How do I mark this as SOLD in the title? I can't work out how to do it?
