I just received my Warwick Pro Series Star Bass II, purchased through bassalien.com. Super guy to deal with, my first purchase from them. I noticed recently that the Star Bass II production is moving to China and will be placed under the Rock Bass group, is this true? No more Korean Star Bass Pro Series? I will report back with a full review of the bass once I've spent some time with it after the "honeymoon" http://www.warwick.de/modules/produk...ID=24506&cl=EN

Owner, Bass Alien | | Join Date: Feb 2012 Location: Illinois | | | 4OnTheFloor, thanks for the kind words. I'm trying to find out more info as well. The only other thing I saw is that the solid color ones say "curved body" as opposed to the flamed maple sunburst which says "flat body". Now I have to pull out the sunburst MIK to see if it's flat! I don't recall that, but I'll check. And the RB Star now says 21 frets on their website (like the Korean models).
I have some other info involving numbers, but PM me if you're interested because I'm pretty sure I can't post that here.
