Hello everybody, I just got a Rockbass Fortress this week and joined this forum today. Here are some pics of the guitar and my vintage amp. Please don't mind the date on the amp pic, my mistake. Grtz.STP61835.jpgSTP61836.jpgSTP61641.jpg
 
This is my beater bass. I use it more than any of them. What a great bass, people comment on the tone every time I take it somewhere. 2003 Streamer 4.2014-10-21 16.02.04.jpg
 
its an english AMP from the 80ies with 250 Watts...

HH electronic was eaten up by Laney in the late 80ies

And here is my newly acquired (from the gentleman pictured) 2011 Corvette Rockbass with its all new guts! It came with passive MEC J's and I pulled everything out and added a Bartolini 3 way EQ preamp and Seymour Duncan Basslines in it's spot. And I guess I'll throw in one shot of the whole lot of mine haha.

So I ordered myself a Corvette $$ 4 as a christmas present. Hoping for a burgundy red, but I`m not sure if that colour comes in lefthanded models. My dealer is checking. :)
 
The HH combo is no longer amongst us. It died on the field of honor. Me was sad. But yesterday, this baby arrived at my home. Me happy. Grtz, Marc.

WOW!! I love the looks of this amp... never seen one before.[/QUOTE]
 
heyyaaaaa yipeeeh..now i am part of the Warwick Bass family ;) :D

my new Baby, a Streamer 4 from 2006.
After cleaning and multiple polishing treads i have decided to get with the Blue High Gloss.... it is very nice and changes the color from deep blue to turquise depends on the lights and angle...

even that is an Rockbass Wick, now i know the different to cheapo Basses from f.e. Harley Benton...
the building quality, touch and feel, sound, finish etc. are an other world.. even with its 8 Years it is nearly in mint condition

Great!

Would also look stunning with gold hw! Right Nacho? ;)
 
i would, but i must wait until next year.. completly gold HW will cost ca. 100,- €

1 new Bridge
4 new tuners
3 new knobs
1 Jackplate
1 Jackpiece in gold
some gold screws
 
I can´t remember that I have seen this jackplate in gold before.
 
if gold, it must be evrything in gold.. the jackplate is a standard.jackplate from STrat, so Plates in Gold will be available by Harley Benton, Kluson, Göldo etc.... and chrome Bridge with golden Knobs its fugly..the tuners and the new Bridge are the higher priced items.. the rest are peanuts
 
I've wanted a Warwick for decades, wanted a fretless for longer...Found that my natural intonation wasn't as natural as I thought. Rehearsing with the band exclusively using the Corvette (apologies to my Spector NS2) for 9 months has forced the issue, and I love it!
