    Custom 4 string Warwick Corvette Bass guitar.
    (Fretless with Fretlines on Ebony Fingerboard and natural bubinga body, all black hardware)

    I bought this 2004 and only used it for a year with a church band [-o-] and since then it has been sitting in my closet for 3 years and just kept it as a back-up bass.

    About the Bass Guitar: It gives out a solid deep bass sound with clarity in every note. It is as good as a Fender but you cant compare it with a Fender as they both have really good sound yet they don't sound the same.

    Asking Price: $800 OBO
    Original Price: $1300 + Custom Fretless w/ fretlines FingerBoard $450

    Yeap! fretless are fun, they're nice if you love to slide and groove and kickback. I just don't need it anymore since I have a Double buck $$ which fits more perfect to the type of music we play.

    That's a nice looking set up. Are you selling the entire rig? Bass and stack?

    good luck on the sale, Warwick definitely makes the best basses hands down IMO. I've always wanted a 5 string thumb solid neck through. But couldn't justify spending 3k or more for one. Oh and I'm not very good... haha

    oh damn! I was also thinking of getting a 5 string thumb... but not the neck thru. I just don't see the point of having a neck thru. it does sound better than a bolt on neck but the difference would not be noticed during a live performance with a complete band plus we're playing heavy music so I really dont think it would matter. and another thing too, anything happens to the neck like dropped it cracked it or something, you cant just replace the neck unlike the bolted neck where its easy to swap!

    :bang:
