ULTRA AMBER - I have had this a month, bought new. I recorded a demo with a band and was gonna do a summer tour but the company denied funds to do so. It never left my studio, not a mark or scratch on it. I drilled the B out a little on the bridge so my strings would fit. New set of D'Addario 170's on it. No case but I have the box it came in and will be pack to my standards.
Price Dropped to $1100 shipped.

The Warwick curves like the Spector, if you catch my drift. Spector originated it, Warwick helped themselves to it. |

1. This is essentially a new bass... lower hours than a guitar center hanger that hasn't been setup properly and who knows what's been done to it
2. I played it for 5 hours tops in the studio in my house!! so never left the confines of "chateau on bass"
3. TW's: Goes from humbucker growl to jazz goodness in two pulls, so essentially you have 4 pickup config's to work with...
4. The B is one of the best in the business
5. Tone Pump new version with the gain attenuator |

Many questions on this. It is Ultra Amber, the picture looks really red, I will take a new one later. |

Simple fix (Don't file your bridges  ):
Just squeeze the string a little just above the ball (where it sits in the anchor slot/yoke) with a flat/regular pliars.
Easy and works like a charm.
Bump.
