FS: Warwick Corvette Std. 5 fretless w/ wenge neck - $625 obo

Sign in to disble this ad
Up for sale is my first fretless (shed a tear) that I am only letting go because I got my Roscoe fretless in Buckeye Burl (finally!).

This bass was one of the last German made ones to have a wenge neck. Here are the specs for my Warwick Standard 5:

Wenge neck
Ebony fretless fingerboard (unlined)
Bubinga body
Gold MEC pickups
Active/Passive pull switch
Stacked concentric knobs for...help me out here...I'm not sure.
Set up with a new set of Sadowsky flatwounds.
Comes with a Warwick gig bag.

This bass has a lot of mwah and growl, and just a huge spectrum of tones. The body has some really nice wood grain figurings and the wenge neck gives it an awesome tone.

Their is some very minor buckle rash (and I mean minor) on the back of the bass that the camera could not pickup, and some very minor fretboard wear (and again, I mean MINOR) from the previous owner that strung the bass with roundwound strings.

I am asking for $750 shipped, or best offer, just nothing ridiculous. I am willing to split paypal fees as well.

Actually had to back out on this due to unforseen fincancial friction, but wanted to bump the thread for da man. He hit me back real quick, seems like a standup guy, and on a sidenote, any Warwick with a wenge neck is NOT to be missed IMO!!! They friggin rock. Ovankol sounds like mud, and its a stupid name to boot.

No doubt on the wenge comment.

Thanks for the kind words!
