TRADES FOR SOMETHING 4 STRING AND MORE TRADITIONAL!!  WHY? 

 

Hi All 

I bought this just as another came up that I had been waiting for but given up on!? 😬 

 

So here we have a bass I know next to nothing about? Looks very Warwick influenced which attracted me to it firstly. Nice light bass with head turning looks due to the grain fill against the light wood? body. I don't know the body wood but it has a slightly sculpted back and sounds great. Worth pointing out that the grain grooves can be felt on the surface it's not a flat finish. Like the Warwick line it has MEC J pickups married to a 2 band eq. 24 fret 5 piece laminate maple neck with rosewood board. Black hardware with a very robust bridge which seems to mimic through body stringing. 34" scale. (EDIT) Volume knob is active/passive push pull pot.

 

The current variants start at £775 upwards so I think this is a decent priceAs it is unmarked as far as I can see. States on the web that these are hand made but?...  Nicely made branded hard case included. 

 

A bit of tarnish on a couple of frets but should come off easily enough. 

 

Weight at a guess is 3.5kgs will weigh later. 

 

Any questions I will try my best to answer. 

 

Cheers 

 

Craig.

I'd be interested to know the string spacing at the bridge?

[Craig Robinson]

Will measure tomorrow bud but pretty sure it's 19mm.

Defo NOT 19mm ☺️

17mm spacing at the bridge.....
