a lucky find...
So i go to a music store my friend works in, and i find a warwick 4 string fretless neck-thru. I nearly shat myself and began to play...it was so awesome, the tone ,the sustain and the feel. So then i asked for the price, just for fun, assuming it would cost like $4000 canadian. The price was $1800!!!!! holy jesus! apparently it had been used, but there were no signs of damage, and it played perfectly. Furthermore it comes with a 2 year warranty. Ill keep you guys posted if i pick this beauty up.

The thumbs are worth it, tone city, and the fretless will have that beautiful growly 'Mwaaah' tone to it.

... I think we're more south-west of you. That sounds like a fucking sweet instrument though. Today I played a spector 5-string neck-thru in a store. I had to go home and change though, cuz it made me jizz in my pants. |
