Telebass Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 What's that they're wanting to charge €549 for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Looks like reshaping the body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
such Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 not sure what the "grind off and revise of body" entail, but the prices of trussrod replacing, strings, setup etc are not excessive. Try to get a quote from, say, Fender's CS for those same services Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clauster Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Could be grind and revise O(riginal) F(inish)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 [quote name='clauster' timestamp='1372251769' post='2123369'] Could be grind and revise O(riginal) F(inish)? [/quote] Refinishing then? Considering the level of finishing that Warwick do then I think that would be a pretty fair price to be honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oversoul Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'm guessing that bass is pretty beaten up? Still, a good outsourced luthier could save you some, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roonjuice Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 its no way beaten, and to clarify, i'm really happy with the finish as it is!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grangur Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 WRT: [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=2]RE 00031 Comp.grind off and revise OF body Euro 549,00[/size][/font][/color] I agree that bit sounds like an expensive item, but we don't know what this is. Maybe this is the work involved in getting to the truss rod and reinstatement (lost in translation maybe). I respectfully suggest Roonjuice gets in touch with Warwick and asks THEM not us. You need to ask them to itemise that bit; give an explanation of the work involved. If you're lucky it may be a mistake it being on there at all.
