U2 - Adam Clayton with Warwick - live!

[Eberbachl]

Great pics - thanks!

I went to the December 4th Show in Melbourne - U2 sounded great.

Adam Clayton sounded wonderful... I couldn't tell exactly, but I think I counted at lest five different basses he used at that show.

:d

Great pics! Adam seems really satisfied with his wicks, he has new and more of them every time I see him!

Seems the new catalog has slightly different versions of the Reverso. Looks like the gold is available but with black and not matching headstock, with active pickups and a few other differences.

Page 19.

Why the differences and what are the prices of the two listed on page 19 of the catalog? Just wondering if they are a bit more price friendly?

Those are the new Korean "Artist Series". They are Bolt On not NT, and they will have a nice price -)

 

[anstratdubh1979]

What will be the approximate price range for the Korea made Reverso?

What will be the approximate price range for the Korea made Reverso?

The list price is £1500 for gold, £1600 for honey sunburst. Of course the street prices will be much lower.

U2 are Back! And Adam still loves Warwick!

Adam Clayton and U2 are at it again. Adam seems quite fond of his CUSTOM WARWICK STREAMER CV

About 10 seconds into this NEW promo video, it looks as if Adam Clayton is playing a Stryker or Buzzard. Have a peek and let me know what you think.

I've played both the Reverso and the CV Artist Series at the shop in Nashville. Both are really great and thick. You'll be happy with it.

I tried getting seated tickets for that tour....

250 bucks a piece...

Adam is back to using WRwick bass guitars for the majority of the 2015 shows. While there is a Fender Sherwood Green signature Jazz getting some use, the rest (majority) of the set are Warwick.

No site of the Star Bass' or Rwverso's from the 2009-2011 "360" tour but there are Adam Clayton Signature Streamers. White with black pick guard are tuned to standard. White with pearl pickgUard are in E-flat. I saw Stuart Morgan (Adam's tech) bring out two gold Clayton Custom shop Streamers. I honk these were the photo-types for the signatures series. They appear to be CV Streamers with the Precison style (vs Jazz style) pickups.

Another Warwick being used is what appears to be a Ziracote Stryker, being used for 'With Or Without You'. Perhaps Florin or Marcus can elaborate if it is with alive pickups or (Adam's usually preferred) passive pickups. Striking looking bass, that Stryker.

I will try to post some of my pictures from the shows soon.

In related news - I have my first Warwick! I got an Adam Clayton RockBass Signature Streamer. It's fantastic!

These are the great news!

And now HPW please hand over the signature of the Reverso to Rex Brown!

Remember to make a review of it in the Rockbass-section.

No pics - no Zyricote Stryker
