Modded german warwick fortress for 150$ worth it?

<snip> You can also replace it w/the MEC humbuckers to get it back to 'closer to normal'.

I kind of like it...

I'd like to retract my last statement about getting MEC humbuckers in there to partially restore it. I just saw the lastest pic and someone apprently re-routed the pickup routes for small swimming pools.

I actually like it better with the j pups.

What did these sell for new?

 

[Rman12321]

so i got the bass, it sounds and plays very well, neck is in perfect condition, however im not a fan of the bare wood finish of the body. Im probably gonna resell it

 

[jamestown94west]

You could easily slap a nice finish on it and still have less than $200 in the bass. I'm super jealous right now!

 

[Rman12321]

how much should I resell it for? im thinking if I sold it for 250$ it can sell pretty easily still

 

[jamestown94west]

I wish I had the cash

 

[brenner182]

Yeah what's the status of you selling that thing?

 

[jamestown94west]

I'm really tempted to make a good trade offer................

 

[Rman12321]

im not sure how to go about selling it atm

I might take it into a shop to get it set up and stuff cuz it buzzes bad on the first 2 frets on the g string

 

[dangerouscello]

That is.. something else. Have them paint it while they're setting it up!

 

[AltGrendel]

Yea, or you could do a DIY rattle can finish to it.

 

[Rman12321]

might just get it clearcoated... How much does that usually cost at a shop
