Let me help you out a little... Terry Lee (from the GT's and East Coast Ent) and Tommy Vickery sent me an email with pictures of your bass.

These will help TB'ers identify it, if it turns up on a gig, pawn shop or online.

I have had a rare bass stolen from me (from Fuzzy's in ATL) and a TB'er saw it posted on Craigslist 14 months later and I got it back. So it is possible, have faith in getting it back.

One of my friends owns a couple pawn shops, so I emailed it to him and he is going to send it out to the GA/SC (Southern regional) pawn desk. Make sure to hit pawns shops each time you come across one and surf all the craigslists in your area.

With in minutes of receiving the email about the stolen bass, I was able to put this in front of around 10k people. Yeah, you can tell that I have been through the stolen bass-feeling, before.

Best of luck,

J

FYI - I learned that the numbering labeled on those limited editions are all the same. The first number (6) was the year of the edition. The second number is the size of the batch. Read that from Warwick CS on their forum site.

Not quite, the first number is indeed the year, but the second number _is_ the number of the bass, so this is the 260th produced. And, more importantly for the OP, it can be used to identify this bass.

just want to put in that this is correct. each year since 2001 has had a limited edition, so at this point, it's either the year or represents the number of unique basses that have been produced.

i see all too frequently where people think the first number is their production number.

good luck with the search...this is one of my wish list basses...hope you find it!
