Show Us Your Non- Warwick Bass Then!

Oh, C'mon, I think you have too much money and don't know how to get rid of it... :D
 
I just snatched this Fortress 1 on Reverb. I have been lusting for a sea foam green bass for a long time, and this modded Warwick caught my eye in a big way. At least I think it's been modded. Aside from the Nordstrand pick-ups, you can see the output jack is on the pickguard and the W on the headstock has been painted over it appears. I think a black W would look killer, but not sure how I could do that. It also appears to have stainless frets. It looks like the mods were well done, but the seller has a 7 day return policy if not. Has anyone ever seen one like this?

Hey, Zom, sorry if that sounded a little harsh, I was trying to be funny, but as you may know, my dark sense of humour is not always on spot.
What's important here is that you like it, so, enjoy it... and, please, share an action video of it. :)
Cheers, man,
 
I have really a dream set now. Warwick's, fenders,ritters, alembics, wall and travis bean. All gained through buying and selling synths and basses 4 a hobby. I started with 75 euro for a Korg M1.... in 2007 - 10 years ago. Keeps you off the streets ;). The Ritter jupiter is really something else... A true weapon for special use, not in the band I play in, but to make cool chops/ tracks and ideas. It is an incredible sounding piece of wood. never experiences anything like it. When I have a good tune in my fingers that matches the potential of this special beast a bit I will post it.... it has 31 frets.... no volume knob etc.

I just picked up a Ritter myself! Jens really creates some mind-blowing functional works of art.
