Looks the builder had the decency to change the headstock shape :-)
 
Most manufacturers have copyrights/patents or whatever on just their headstock shapes. Fender, Gibson, Rickenbacker for instance.
Many copycats therefor are typically nearly identical except for the headstock. This has nothing to do with decency and everything with evading possible lawsuits.
 
Of all the basses they could have copied, the took the Corvette.
What a lack of taste. :-)
 
Why put the "w" on it? Shape copying is no big deal really, hell about 75% of expensive basses are basically just jazz basses with decent build quality (unlike the one 7ender cranks out). and you cant really say the warwick JB cream revival bass is exactly an original shape, but why stick another brands logo on a bassthat is too different to be an actual forgery. I don't get it. It might be a fine bass, but it looks like it cant decide between being a bad forgery and just a shape copy....
 
Well, that might be, for the uneducated beotian eyes, true. :-)

(Yes, Il like the Reverso and not the Corvette, it's a known fact that I like to troll about :-) )

You can't troll this beauty here. If that $$ is still ugly to you, might I suggest an upside down stool next to Helen Keller? Lol :-)
 
Indeed I call this the "ugly birds corner" of my collection. But raptors them all. No chance for neat Vetties.

Ouch! Next time 5 year old children have to produce a Wickopy in a cave: at least switch the lights on!!!
