Very nice bass there, just to let you know I'd change the 'uncredible' to (I'm guessing ) 'incredible' as it is a timewarp masterpiece!!

[fernandobicho]

any englix corrections are welcome! Thank you!

Don't think MEC were being made in that year, do you know what happened to the original preamp??

Lovely bass

Hi
wrong. All Warwicks have MEC preamp since the begining . The pickups were Bartolini, Seymour Duncan, OBL-Bill Lawrence and optional Alembic, but mostly EMG but all the preamps were MEC. This bass it's all original.
thank you. Cheers

The BEC II preamp by Warwick / Hansal (Later MEC company) was offered in 1984. MEC pickups became the standard Warwick pickup in 1988. Beautiful bass, BTW!!!

Fair enough, I stand corrected!

Nice bass, fabulous condition. It looks almost as if it has never been played, certainly the pups look like they've not been played in it's 26 year life; just out of interest what is the colour of the lettering on the top of the EMG pups?

Is the wood 'Annegre' (alternative spelling Anigre) the same wood as Cherry, as I believe that the body wood of your bass will be Cherry unless it was a custom order.

[fernandobicho]

Hello
I don't know what's "annegre" wood... but the body it's seems made of cherry, yes. That it's the official description of Warwick's database. Maybe someone knows what's "annegre"....
The lettering in the PUs it's in silver color.
thank you

two things.... http://www.wood-database.com/lumber-identification/hardwoods/anigre/ used as strips in boat building as far as I can see

and.... WOW, that is stunning. Like wow- one of the top two nicest basses to come up for sale on here ever in my book (the other one beoing the JV p bass I bought)

Just thought I'd chime in and agree with the others - that thing looks amazing!! Especially given it's age!

+1. Awesome looking bass! Is it possible to hear how it sounds?

[fernandobicho]

Thank you folks, for your interest and posts.
I have some offers... I think soon the bass will sell... It's sad for me, but what can I do? I have 30 basses... It's time to sell some...
If I can, during the weekend I'll do a sound sample.
Thank you

I have so many things to think... I don't kown if I've put a post here about it

[jimbobothy]

Man, you've got some nice basses there and I'm sure you won't fine it hard to find a buyer type bump

[fernandobicho]

Thanks Jimbobothy and all of you.
News on this..... the bass is now sold on warwick's forum ... I know, it was I was looking for... but it's sad. . Well... life goes on.
Cheers
Have a nice weekend

I commented on the Warwick forum as well - this was an epic bass!
