selling away a very loved bass

Bass is in near pristine condition despite being 24years old. Even the strap button is the flushed-in kind (will include the strap lock mechanism).

Strung with Robert Trujillio Signature stainless steel set by Dunlop and is in Drop A tuning with low actions, zero fret buzz, straight neck and perfect string tention. Machine head has been upgraded to Gotoh for that supreme tuning stability.

Full servicing was done 2weeks ago, frets polishing, frets leveling, fretboard conditioning included. Electronics are new 500k Hosco MIJ Pots for Volume and Tone, powered by new Orange Drop Cap and a new Hosco MIJ Blend knob and new barrel jack. Simple electronics that really brings out the power of the MEC pickup and that signature prominent Warwick growl you can only get in a german made one.

will include a big bottle of beeswax (90% balance!) for your cleaning and maintenance purpose . I have a picture of an email from the CEO of Warwick on the production details of this beast aka the birthcert. Unfortunately ive only a softcase bag for it :(

This bass has given me so much joy, even by just playing it without an amp. Sadly i have to sell this off to settle urgent medical bills, otherwise i would have contentedly keep it in my arsenal and appreciate admire its beauty.

buy with ease of mind that the bass is not a counterfeit or a rockbass version. Growl and grow together as one!
