FS/FT 06 Warwick Corvette $$

Here FS/FT is my recently acquired 06 Warwick Corvette $$ in Natural.

This is a great sounding and versatile bass with a fantastic B for a 34" scale.
Unfortunately I'm just not getting on with the 16.5mm string spacing. I've been using this as a backup to my MTD (19mm spacing) and swapping between the two is proving difficult.

It has a couple of minor dings but nothing that affects playability.

Looking for £500 + P&P or trade for another 5 with ideally 19mm string spacing. Something like a 5 string Jazz would be ideal.
Could maybe add a bit of cash for the right trade.

Here are the pics from Chelios, the previous owner (Hope this is OK Chelios, if not I'll take them down and take some more tonight):

Comes with a functional but slightly tatty hard case. Willing to deliver within 100(ish) miles of Manchester for £15 towards fuel.

FWIW I think £500 is undervaluing it a bit - they're £1200 new ![/quote]
Bah! A Lakland would've been ideal.
I saw another $$ on here for £550 so I thought £500 was about right for a quick sale.

Oh well, too late anyway as this is now sold pending delivery.

That price is about right I reckon. SH Warwick values are really low at the moment. I got my high polish vette $$ for £470 on the bay last year, and its RRP is well over £1,500. I've seen quite a few high end Warwicks go for very little on the bay. I just sold my original Fortress for £500.
