A Rickenbacker had its way with a spector copy

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

Stuart Zender probably likes it as its his signature bass with a pricetag to match. But it's the fugliest thing I've seen since the Bongo*.

[size=1]* I don't like warwicks or rickenbackers, but I'm sure some people will think its the nicest looking thing since Kylie's bum and they're entitled that opinion even if it is wrong .[/size]

I think we had a thread on this before. It looks very metal, not something I'd expect to see Stuart Zender playing.

Hideously unbalanced looking and butt-ugly isn't it. Mind you, he was banging on about playing LP basses last year so maybe this thing will end up on ebay soon too with "played by Stuart Zender" in the description.

I've moved the thread to Bass Guitars, as it's most certainly 'On Topic' Apologies to the OP if this wasn't your original intention.

That's funkin glorious.

that's not bad at all. Sort of an artsy Fortress (I get the Prince vibe as well). Cheesy inlays though. And the price tag, jeez...

Yeah I hadn't thought of that. Weird bass either way, I think even the hardcore Zender fans are going to stick with the standard Streamer.

I love the old Warwick designs but ever since the Dolphin came out I thought they were smoking too much. I wonder if that's why Thumbs and Streamers are so cheap now, because people looked at the modern models and threw up.

I think the Dolphin is far and away the best looking Warwick.

nice to see a warwick signature bass that isnt one of the many streamer models with a revamped paint job.......looks ok to me though i agree on the point about cheesy inlays. and as for the price....

It's sort of ok, ish. Wouldn't mind a play to see if I liked it.
