Impulse NBD: Warwick Corvette

[smurfco]

Well, not entirely impulse, as I've been on the lookout for a while, but this one came up at a great price ($600 shipped). This is a 1997 Warwick Corvette Standard, made in Germany. In 1998 they made a bunch of changes (for the worse, according to most people), but these earlier German Warwicks are fantastic basses. The bassist for my old band Used For Comparison played one almost exclusively, which is where I got my experience with them.

Cool features include a brass "Just-A-Nut" where you can adjust the nut slots, recessed straplocks, an all-wenge neck and a bubinga body.

Nice! I remember back then Warwick was a high end bass (still is).
