FS: PRICE DROP - £750, 1993 Warwick Pro line Corvette - Made in Germany. Lightweight £800 £800 Plymouth, Devon

[Raslee]

Since acquiring my ultralight Sandbergs due to back issues, this beauty has sadly seen little action. It really needs to be played and not become a wall ornament. Plus I need to rebalance the credit card since my Sandberg Bass purchases.
This Corvette is by far the best Warwick I’ve ever owned and really is a cracker of an early 90s Warwick with a slim neck to die for with a Wenge fretboard, and the bass is lightweight too at an accurate 7.9 lbs on my digital scales (main reason I bought it). 

 

Not being a fan of the MEC pickups, I fitted some fantastic Villex pickups (quite rare now) and a Glockenklang Pre, which also has the passive option - a brilliant modification in my opinion - still retains that Warwick growl but has a much wider spectrum of sounds. I do have the MEC active pickups, which I can add to the sale, although the MEC pre has seen better days as the stacked pot had died, although I may have a spare potentiometer.

As I say it has a lovely neck, low action, brass adjustable nut, Dunlop strap locks,  Warwick gig bag, and a lovely lightweight body in a rare colour Antique tobacco satin.

£800  - Collect from Plymouth or willing to post at cost to buyer (have box and a legendary wife who oddly enjoys packing bass gear!).

Well, that would have been a tempting trade! Good luck with the sale. And by that I mean I hope you get to keep it.

May consider trades/part trades with basses, ideally light in weight but may consider something Stingray ish for the studio, cash either way but I have to keep cash additions relatively low.

Cheers man. Yes I’ve had to keep it away in the case as not to get tempted to withdraw. The neck is gorgeous like a 90’s Streamer neck, maple and a Wenge fretboard…lovely!

Surprised its not been snatched up by now. These basses are so nice to play. The necks are probably the best i've tried, just so comfy.

I actually got up off the vasectomy operation table to fire in the winning bid on one of these, well worth it. 
seller said he was very impressed with my urge to win. Surgeon not so much

I'm guessing it was a snip buy. 🤣
