It's just a Vampyre Rockbass. Here's a proper eBay listing of one -

Ta - that clears things up. The missing W got me suspicious, and it does look like they're trying to pass it off as a Warwick rather than a RockBass.

The ad I posted, Warwick Vampyre SN5 + Warwick Rockcase E-Bass [242064] bei eBay.de: E-Bässe (endet 12.03.10 20:56:46 MEZ), says "Warwick Vampyre SN5 + Warwick Rockcase E-Bass", and doesn't contain the word "Rockbass" once, in the whole listing.

Also no sexy contours on the body. Not a SN and will never be one!
Also far overpriced for a Rockbass with so many sweaty fingerprints on it, IMO.
Right now the real SNs keep appearing on ebay from time to time, and they go quite fair priced. So keep looking if you wish one.

Regards, NR.
 
Plus the ad calls it a "SN" but says that it's a custom built which has a "bolt-on neck rather than a glued-on one". The missing headstock inlay is also passed off as a custom specification. Ridiculous that stuff it's so obvious when you know about it, just makes the point again of how important your own research is before buying anything on the interweb.
 
I just sent the guy a mail:-) He just does not know what he is talking about. I doubt that his intent is "malicious":-)
 
Ok, it's not ebay, but the Bass Centre (London) have had this F/L Infinity for a while and have finally knocked the price down to £1099.

Somebody please buy this otherwise I might feel I have to ;)
 
I fell I have to! Unfortunately Bass Centre is more than one ocean away!
 
This one is a rare guest on ebay. Here as a CS: Vampyre SN

hi..im currently sellinga warwick corvette fna 4 string on ebay at the minute, if anyone is interested. its a beauty.
 
For all the lefties out there:

A nice Sixer Streamer with very interesting wood (is it maple???) body wood.
 
No offense to my fellow lefty players, but I just can't look at a lefty guitarist, bass player, or drummer. It literally makes my eyes water, lol. It's kind of like trying to read a book, where all of the text is mirrored, lol.
