[quote name='Sean.Robinson' post='388115' date='Jan 21 2009, 11:47 PM']PMd[/quote] Replied As with the other basses that I have for sale I've had a lot of interest and interesting offers. I don't want to dick about and mess people round but I'm trying to firm up/confirm one or two offers of sales. However I do have to stress that these sales aren't because I'm suddenly destitute so I'm not giving any basses away. Luke may well have advertised his Stage I bass @ £600 but I'm not selling my fretless as cheaply (no disrespect Luke ) and my Ltd Ed bass is into 4 figures which may at least settle the matter for a few people. Cheers for all of the PMs and I'll sort this shortly but in the meantime there's no harm in keeping offers coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My blue one 1991 one was listed at £600 as that is what I paid for it, off of warwickhunt, six months ago. For the life of me I do not feel my one, or this one are worth as little as 600; I did feel it wrong however, to make a profit at the expense of someone else on this board and that is why my blue one was/is as cheap as it is. Thats my ethics or my stupidity and not what a early warwick stage one is worth! Warwickhunt is an honest, helpful and great guy to deal with. And he has some great basses for sale at good prices.

[/quote] Tbh a year or two ago it was a bit sad as I got to the point where my personal crusade (spanning 20+ years) to find the best of the best from Warwick led to me starting to collect Warwicks for the sake of being able to say that I had more than anyone else! However, after holding a friend together after a near fatal motorbike crash the status of owning stuff has kinda lost its appeal and owning a particular bass doesn't mean much anymore.... I can sound like a bag of shyte on most basses. This epiphany has allowed me to kind of settle on the amp & cab that I have at present and virtually any of the basses that I have will give me a decent tone, so I'm going to keep a couple of the less luxurious models and just have a dabble with a few basses bought from the 'pot' that I will have from these sales. Sadowsky you say... hmmm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you know that I wouldn't have been offended if you'd asked more for your bass but I suppose it is the kind of person you are that you punted it back out for what you got it for.

GreeneKing Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 You'll be pleased to know John that with reference my previous post I have actually won the lottery! So will £10 do it then? Beautiful btw. Sorry to hear about your mate. As you know I've been a biker most of my life and it's given me many moments of truly memorable times but when it bits back it can bite hard.

I wasn't trying to bring the thread down or go for the sympathy vote by mentioning my friend Carol, it was just as a way of clearing the air in case someone thought I was just trying to 'off-load' basses. Oddly enough Carol is pretty chipper despite having 1.5 legs and has been in the papers a bit lately due to her fund raising for the Air Ambulance, it has even led to a bit of modelling work and she's a very positive person 'because' of the accident.
