Those earliest ovangkol necks really weren't Warwicks finest hour. Both my Streamer LX's are from roughly the same era and aren't perfect either (but no twist, thankfully). They play fine, but my 4-string LX can't be set up extremely low because of a small microbend at the 3rd fret and my 5-string is the most sensitive to changes in humidity out of all my instruments.

 

This appears beyond what a fret level can solve. I think you'd need to remove the lower frets (or possibly all), plane the fingerboard, reset the nut and refret. That doesn't come cheap.

If you're a right hander.... just why???

Probably from lefties who had to learn on right handed instruments

I play lefty instruments strung righty or righty instruments upside down. Seems normal to me 🤪

I think my issue is more with right handers and the hundreds of options they have, and generally lower prices, playing left handed instruments. 

 

I never said I was a rational man 😂😂

Looks tidy, it's a '77 or '78, so the asking price is not unreasonable.

Still on sale - down to £1700. Anyone feeling flush ?
