Welcome Cloud,
I just bought a 1998 Dolphin Pro I off of fellow forumer CeeJ. I will probably receive it on Wednesday. A long time ago, I thought Warwik only made the Dolphin as their special niche in the market. I loved its look then and still do now. Thankfully I discovered the other models, but the Dolphin was the crown jewel to me, even though it is not a traditional shape!
The one I bought has boire wood body, wenge/zebrano neck, and platinum hardware. I also ordered and received platinum satin dolphin inlay knobs to put on this beauty.
Once I get mine and take some photos, I want to start a Dolphin Club to add as a sticky.
Check thi forum's basses for sale, as Dolphins do show up for a decent price. Also check eBay and craigslist. From what I've learned, the one I bought is the most highly sought version - still handmade right before Warwick switched to CNC machines! Buying used, you not only can find a great deal, but you can also find a pre '98/99 model. Dreams do come true...
