markytbass Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Does anyone or has anyone used a warwick combo (sweet25.1 to be exact). I have a short list of combo's I am thinking of buying but can't find a warwick to try. The others in the short list are Ashdown, Fender or try and get a 2nd hand Trace (I cant afford a new one on a budget of £300). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassBomber414 Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 (edited) I've got a Warwick CCL Combo, 15 inch speaker with horn,250RMS,300 W max, which I bought from Thomann for £328 delivered on a pallet from East Germany Check out this link [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/warwick_ccl_nd_4.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/warwick_ccl_nd_4.htm[/url] Thomann's price for a Sweet 25.1 is simaler to internet prices in Uk but the CL and CCL are very heavily discounted from Germany ,over here they cost around £485. I have also have use of a Blue Cab 60 for practice. The Warwick CCl is very well finished ,nice and portable with it's built in wheels and a trolly handle.A very quiet combo with more than enough wallop for small to medium gigs. It looks and sounds very impressive and every musician I've played with has complimented me on the sound.When I'm playing 'Badge ' I stick in the 'low boost ' switch.It is hard to believe the big ground hugging sound this amp produces. There are rave reviews of the Warwick Sweet 25.1 on Harmony Central Website.Check out this link for Warwick Amp reviews - [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Bass+Amp/brand/Warwick"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...p/brand/Warwick[/url] Good luck with your hunt for a combo.

Peaty Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Markytbass I have a Warwick CL150 combo (older style without the builtin wheels,) 150W (RMS), 1x12 speaker sounds good but I am using it less these days and I have been thinking of putting in the for sale section for £180. In any case you are welcome to come and give it a go and see if it is what you are after I am based just outside Oxford. Cheers Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm up in Darlington, so a little bit too far. I have been looking at all sorts of stuff. Weight and portability are the two main factors. I suffer with a bad back but it's not always the weight of an amp that does me in so much as the poxy handles. I have a Laney R3 Kick back 165w and because it only has a single handle it's difficult to carry. Anyway in the middle of writing this I have managed to win a Warwick sonic 3 on ebay, so now I will be looking for a cab. Failing that I will be making my own. Thanks for the help everyone.
