Another Ebay Listing, 1993 Jimmy Earl Signature!


From The Warwick History - Page 60
Jimmy Earl signature
1993 saw the introduction of a new signature bass, this time Jimmy Earl, long time Warwick endorser, was the person the new bass was named after.
The Jimmy Earl signature bass was based on a Streamer Stage I, deviations from the original design were the used body woods (Ash instead of maple) maple fingerboard (so the JE signature has a ‘white’ fingerboard) EMG pickups and 2 band EQ and some specimen had a sparkle laquer.
These basses are no longer build and they are quite rare.

Looks like I'm Pulling the Trigger on this one myself! A little over $2000 shipped / delivered, and Duties paid. I might even leave the Fake Fret Markers on!

Awesome - that's just about my dream bass as far as woods and colours are concerned. If those pickups were in the regular J spots....

I hear ya, but for some reason it Works on a Warwick being closer to the Bridge. I just hope I can get the spacing out to 17.5mm!
 
Wait, is that 18 thousand euro?

(If so, what's with one side of the world using commas for decimals and decimals for commas?)

Damn, we are rich! I knew some day the second hand market prices will rise. I quitt working for today - no for this month! Just sell a Wick and you can stay at home!
 
His other offers look sane, maybe he just pressed that '8' button one more time than intended.
 
I checked on a map, but can't find "Lefthand Germany" anywhere. Never heard of such a place, nor did I realize they segregated southpaws like that.

have speak with the vendor ;)
it was his intention to put on 18888 € for this warwick...
He thinks, that a lot of people will ask him about that surrealistic price and for curiousity, hoping to selling the bass easier ;)

Hey, if he's open to offers and is letting the offers set the market price, I think his trick is just fine!
 
he is open to offers, but he doesn't tell me if the first "1" digit is wrong, or the last "8" digit is wrong ;)
