My front man takes a faceplant on stage...

Hey guys! I figured i would share this clip of my band's recent performance at Daisy Duke's in Nashville, TN. It is our opening song "Running Away." Our front man took a nasty spill off the jump box and it is H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S!!!! hope you guys get a kick out of it!

Decided to spoil myself on the last day of the year too:









1992 Corvette ProLine
Passive with dynamic correction pickups (Have bartolini's here!)
Weird headstock, anyone know more? Right is my 2005 Corvette.

Yeah I like it a lot!
The maple neck is so amazing, wish Warwick did more of it instead of the usual ovangkol/wenge combo.

It does look like someone sanded down the neck and trimmed the headstock quite a bit, they're both really thin compared to other Warwick necks.
Don't mind it at all, like it quite a lot actually, but it still baffles me a bittle.

Will take some measurements with electronic calipers tomorrow or this weekend.
It's also unusually light, maybe 3,5kg max.

Oh, and it really needs a new nut, this one makes the sring spacing and alignment a bit wonky.

Comparing the two necks:






The maple one is a lot thinner then the ovangkol one, as a result of obvious adjustments by a previous owner.

Look how far the tuning pegs stick out, don't believe thats a factory decision.



As it wasn't stated in the original ad it does leave me a bit upset, but not enough that I would return the bass.
The neck is quite nice and really fast, and I don't mind that at all, but it did not live up to my original expectation.

Obvious risk from buying online, but one I don't mind taking again.
