I've seen the new Warwicks!

[Woodchuck]

I have pix! Sadly, I've been sworn to secrecy. Sorry. The Stu Zender model will surprise some with the body style, and the Rockbasses will now have 2 piece bridges and a more Warwick like headstock. Oh, and there'll be another P Nut sig. There's also an awesome TM Stevens model, but it looks expensive as all get out.

Oooh! Exciting! I'm guessing that the Zender model is more vintage styled (due to his recent use of Les Paul basses), rather than the classic Zender Streamer. It saddens me a bit, but I'm just going to have to let it go I guess...

Let's just say that the body style is gonna flip ya. It hasn't grown on me yet.

Woodchuck, you are SUCH a tease!

Who's distributing Warwicks in the states now that DBG apparently is not? Doing it themselves?

 

[TFunkadelic]

Oooohhh someone likes feeling special!

 

[Joe Gress]

hmm.

Some company called Hanser is supposedly the new distributor, according to the Warwick forums.

Invalid Link Removed is the site. They don't have Warwick listed there yet, IIRC.

 

[SuperDuck]

Did you see the 2009 limited edition?

 

[Lesfunk]

Hanser is Traben and B.C. Rich

Yeah, a double buck 'Vette, and it's beautiful.

 

[Ampeg SVT]

So are they bringing the P-J Rockbass Streamer over here? I saw one on the Warwick Germany website, it would be a nice alternative to buying a german Warwick.

And Kustom and Micheal Kelly, and a couple others.

Yep, with a 2 piece bridge and "W" on the 'stock.

If the Stu Zender model isn't a streamer I'll be very disappointed! And I'm not a Zender fan by any stretch!

 

[lindseyp]

Hmmm, maybe that's why the $$ I picked up today was less than $1K; time to make room for the new models.

 

[Daywalker]

Daaaaaaaaaaamn! I had been doing so well saving money too....

 

[lindseyp]

A guy on another post said he paid less than $800 for his $$ this week. Price varies by location.

 

[chjohnst]

I paid 700 for a 4 string corvette and 900 for a 5 string in the last 3-4 weeks. Prices are dropping to clear inventory on them. Both basses were from 07 which means they were on the rack for a long time. My only problem is they are both bubinga same color. I am thinking of swapping the 4 string out for a double buck.

Seeing this makes me kinda glad I never sent my Thumb to DBG to have the twisted neck fixed. I imagine it would have been a lower than low priority.
