Daz39 Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Do you know what it weighs? Also - how's the action and what do the controls do?
whizzzy Posted February 17, 2016 Author Posted February 17, 2016 I'll put it on the scales when I get home tonight and also respond to your other questions at the same time.
whizzzy Posted February 17, 2016 Author Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) In answer to the above: Weight 9.0lbs Action can be described as average to low - measures 0.02 / 5th fret and 0.060 / 12th fret Controls - the Warwick manual describes it much better than I can - see page 10 in the following link [url="http://www.warwick.de/warwick/data/Warwick.de/Technical%20PDF/Manuals/WWBassManual_en_2012_small.pdf"]http://www.warwick.d..._2012_small.pdf[/url] Edited February 17, 2016 by whizzzy
Risk101 Posted February 17, 2016 Posted February 17, 2016 Make no mistake, these are excellent basses and 9lb is light for a vette $$. I loved mine - awesome tone, great in the mix, and as for the thundering low B..... 😀 GLWTS
doc40hz Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I agree with Risk101 - these are truly excellent basses. They retail for around £2500, so £650 is a bargain. The neck on mine is fantastic, though on the chunky side. The low B sounds amazing. I don't know why they depreciate so much, but they seem to. I recently bought an MTD and was planning to sell my Corvette to pay for it, but I can't bring myself to part with it and, frankly, it is worth more than the£650ish I would get for it. Somebody buy this thing, you will not regret it!

Jorduan Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 If I hadn't purchased a standard 5 corvette a fortnight ago, I would have snapped this up in an instant. Good luck with the sale!
jimbobothy Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 .... if they made such a thing as a Broadneck variant I'd have it. This does seem a great price for a very versatile bass, GLWTS.
whizzzy Posted February 28, 2016 Author Posted February 28, 2016 Thanks for the positive comments everyone and I agree with everything said. Certainly a wonderful bass and sorry to see it go. Bass is now sold.
