1993 Warwick Alien - *SOLD* £1000 Ireland

[drewk_ie]

A piece of music history: The Warwick Alien was designed by renowned German master luthier Martin Seeliger, founder of Lakewood Guitars - a company well-respected for building acoustic guitars of exceptional quality. This bass is part of the first series of 101 pieces to be handcrafted by Lakewood in Germany before production moved to Asia.

 

Exceptional craftsmanship: This acoustic bass is made of selected solid wood and sports even meticulously crafted wooden bindings, this ensures its exceptional resonance and sound quality. The design features elements that were both unique and trendsetting, including the relocated soundhole, a large bridge with metal tailpiece, cutaway, and ergonomic thumb rest, making this bass both aesthetically pleasing and highly functional.

 

Original Lakewood MK 2 Preamp: Equipped with the AER-designed 18-volt preamp, this bass offers unparalleled tonal control. With separate volume controls for each string, a 3-band EQ, and a master volume, you can tailor your tone to your needs.

 

Just-A-Nut Technology: Thanks to Warwick's Just-A-Nut technology, custom string height adjustment is a breeze.    

                                              

The sound is loud and resonant. Rich and warm with lots of bite. Playing technique alone gives a range of sound from smooth and warm to twangy and biting. Very versatile tones. Acoustically satisfying!

 

Bookmatched solid Spruce top, bookmatched solid Ovankol back. Mahogany neck, Wenge fingerboard. Hand Built in 1993, Serial number #92, this bass comes with a Warwick Rockcase.

 

Bass is currently located in Ireland, but can arrange shipping at buyers expense, (or buyer can arrange their own), have all the necessary cartons and packaging materials. 
 

I also have the ability to get the bass over to the UK if that helps.

 

Thanks for looking!
