Warwick $$ Doublebuck 4 String - Now £699 shipped mainland UK.
 
Dates from 2006:
 
Feeding the serial number into the Warwick Serial number checker gives the spec as:
 
Produced - 06.09.2006
Description - Corvette $$, 4-string
Nirvana Black Oil finish 
Swamp Ash body
Ovangkol neck
Black hardware
Made in Germany
 
In good overall condition given the age - some minor marks/scars on the body of the bass and some signs of wear on the pickup casings.
 
I took this in trade and it needed a lot of TLC.  The bass has had a thorough clean, board cleaned and oiled and frets polished.  As can be seen in the photos previous owner has rubbed gold effect paint into the grain.  Some of this was loose so I sprayed over the body with a can of compressed air to remove all the loose parts - this removed anything that was loose, I also rubbed over the body with Warwick wax to further 'seal' the finish.  Many photos below as I've tried to capture this in different lights.
A previous owner had some fun with the electrics too - the volume and blend pots had changed positions (!!) and one of the micro switches wasnt latching properly.  I've relocated the pots in the correct positions, tidying up the wiring and put in 2 new switches for the pickups - after some trial and error on my part.  See this thread:
 
 
A versatile bass with the pickup configurations.
