FLoydElgar Posted February 26, 2010 Author Posted February 26, 2010 BUMP new price including delivery *£850
xilddx Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 Hello mate, sorry to be slightly OT here. I bought the exact same bass (I believe) in august last year (in Honey Violin) and it was massively cheaper. Warwick Corvette HV Standard Fretless Bass Guitar - swamp ash body, 2x MEC JJ pickups, active MEC 2-band EQ, ovangkol neck, includes Premium Line Plus gig bag. Colour: Honey Violin Coloured Oil Finish Price: [b]789.00 EUR [/b]each Is there anything different about yours? I'm wondering what the hell's going on with Warwick pricing.
FLoydElgar Posted March 8, 2010 Author Posted March 8, 2010 Man tell me about it! Over the top is the name for it... What sort of price could I get for it! I payed the price off of the website but it has gone up :S by the looks of things :s Damn I'm gonna loose big time! I've played it four times but just not that into warwicks! Literally no marks no boardware! help me with a price please
xilddx Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) I feel for you man, believe me. I've seen these go for about £400. It's such a shame you don't like it, I love mine, but I resprayed it white and got black hardware for it. I have no constructive suggestions, I'm afraid. Good luck EDIT: Christ, I just had a look at the Thomann listings and the one I bought is now the same price as yours, unbelievable! Edited March 16, 2010 by silddx
xilddx Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 I just looked at the Warwick site and there is no mention of the Corvette Standard in the current list or discontinued??! What the hell is going on? I'll have to have a nose around the Warwick forum later. You could try selling it on the Warwick.de Forum actually.

How can Warwick (or is it Thomann?) justify a c. 630 Euro increase within about a month on a 2009 Corvette Standard Fretless, the exact same model AFAIK???!!!
FLoydElgar Posted March 16, 2010 Author Posted March 16, 2010 Dang thanks for letting me kknow this is sh*t! excuse my language but... I'm going to give the corvette a set up and see if it's alright then the string spacing was 20mm rather than 17 im use too might as well check it

The necks are amazing, so are the pups and tronics. The bass balances beautifully too. You can adjust the string spacing. I have mine narrow too. Consult the manual in your user kit about how to do this. I reckon you can love this bass. get it set up and give it a chance, no point losing money. Let us know how you get on and if you need any help. All the best mate.
