mojobass Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) Divorce sucks!!!!! I thought I'd manage to keep most of the ones left after selling the last few but the bl**dy UK legal system seems to think that us blokes are fair game and women deserve everything!!!! rant over! I really dont want to part with either of these two, so either I sell one and keep one, or sell both if theres enough interest! First up a '94 Warwick fortress masterman, wenge/wenge neck, twin MEC Jpups, finish is black see through, black hardware. Its in very good nick for its age - few cosmetic scars from gigging over the years but other than that very good! nice low action and growly!! £500 posted for this one including gigbag Second up a '90's status S3000 headless, same again, few gigging scars but overall very nice. Read on - there is a SMALL issue with the electronics, one of the wires has become detatched from the blend pot and i dont know enough to re-solder it, prior to this the electrics were fully functional! I am going to take it to a local tech to investigate but that'll be in the next few days. Anyhow, I'm prepared to either let it go as is for £500 posted or after its been fixed for £600 posted will also include genuine status gigbag with either option.

hephaestus Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Yes, of course. NOW a Fortress shows up... Good luck with the sale anyway!
big rob Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Looking forward to seeing both, is the fortress active, also is it high gloss?

[/quote] I don't even need to see the pics to say yes and yes will be the answers. Most models have two preamps too- one for each half of the pup!
big rob Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 This sounds like a beast, I have a dolphinpro one and love it, but looking to extend the bass family a little more, cheers for the enlightenment.
LukeFRC Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9tVXCgzLEk bare in mind this fella probably gets a wee discount on new warwicks... and he seems to be chasing these mastermans.
mojobass Posted September 19, 2012 Author Posted September 19, 2012 Pictures are up!!! just to clarify, yeh the fortress has a 3 stacked knob configuration - 1: vol/pan, 2:bass/treble for front pup, 3:bass/treble for bridge pup and does sound awesome!! the S3000 needs a good clean i know!!
Ashwood1985 Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 ohhh darth vader basses! Shouldn't imagine the masterman will hang around. Don't see em much. GL bro!
mojobass Posted September 20, 2012 Author Posted September 20, 2012 hi coco, the S3000 is a graphite neck its just painted the same as the body!
chuck_stones Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 WISH I could help you out with the Warwick. Great sounding instruments and if they play anything like a Corvette $$, I'd love to own one Best of luck, and sorry to hear about the reason for sale.
mojobass Posted September 20, 2012 Author Posted September 20, 2012 I realise times are tight at the minute for all of us, and ive got to pay the solicitors next wk so... Will take £450 posted for the fortress and £450 for the status as it is now.
