Warrior Signature 5! YOU GOTTA SEE AND HEAR TO BELIEVE! (audio clip)

honest abe · #1 01-01-2011, 11:16 PM

I've been flip flopping about this for some time now as I've been enjoying playing this beauty recently. This bass is easlily the best playing bass I've ever owned! But alas I've decided to repost my lovely Warrior Signature 5 for trade. It is near mint condition as there are no dings, dents, or scratches I can find. You can audition an audio clip below so that you can be convicned that it sounds as good as it looks. As for trades I'm looking for fretted 5'ers or 4's (lesser basses with cash coming my way are particularly atractive). I'd also consider a straight sale at $2500 plus shipping. Show me what you got!

Tight! I like. I have an early Lakland (2002) 55-02 in rare Inca silver with nice maple neck or an Overwater..see link. Would be interested in purchase as well.

Impressive tone: fat and growly

Warriors don't get the credit they deserve, IMO.

If I didn't put Norstand pickups in my Marcus Miller i'd be all over this!!!

It sounds great, but I suspect alot of that has to do with your skills too.

Sure!

I just wish I could afford your bass. That is my favorite Warrior model, and I just love those skinny Bartolini soapbars!

Is there a way to get a full length .mp3 of that track? It's great!

First, that is a very cool track!!!! Seriously! Second, the bass looks and sounds great! Last, you've got skillz!!! Paraphrasing something that Victor Wooten said in one of his clinics, if nobody is playing the bass, it doesn't make a sound-it can't play itself.

A Groove is a Terrible Thing to Waste!
