Matige kwaliteit
Resw 21.11.2021
In 2017 gekocht en wat heb ik een spijt van deze aankoop. De kwaliteit is ver te zoeken, mijn ibanez van 200 euro is duidelijk beter als deze bas!

Allereerst heb ik een stemmechaniek en de jack output in de loop der tijd laten vervangen omdat ze al versleten waren. Kan gebeuren, geen groot probleem. Het plastic plaatje waarop staat dat het een signature is is van slechte kwaliteit, maar hij werkt nog. De frets zijn overdreven dik, maar ieder zijn smaak. Echter wat ik altijd al slecht vond is dat de actie van de hals eigenlijk iedere week wel opnieuw kan worden afgesteld. (Terwijl mijn diverse andere bassen en gitaren in dezelfde ruimte staan en dat niet hebben) Vervolgens moet je dus bij de brug even intoneren, maar dat is slecht ontworpen. Je kan je schroevendraaier niet recht op de schroef zetten om een brugzadel heen en weer te draaien! Dus de kop van die schroeven gaan in de loop der tijd stuk.

Na anderhalf jaar pauze wilde ik er weer wat podia mee op gaan, dus de bas even langs een goede gitaarbouwer gebracht voor een afstelbeurt, want ik heb al tijden intonatieproblemen met deze bas. Nu blijkt dat de hals is getordeerd! En ik kreeg ook te horen dat dat vaker gebeurt met warwick bassen. (Let wel, dit is een kwaliteitszaak en zonder verkooppraatjes) Diezelfde gitaarbouwer gaat dat gelukkig netjes corrigeren, maar het vertrouwen in deze bas en het hele merk is wel weg om eerlijk te zijn. Deze bas is hooguit de helft van het aankoopbedrag waard, en dan zet ik nog hoog in.

Wat er wel goed aan is: het gewicht en het geluid (zolang het dus werkt).

Voor mij geen (chinese) warwick meer.

Good sounding bass with a few minor quality control issues
Ush. 05.04.2019
All my other basses are fender p or jazz basses so this was new territory for me. I bought this bass to use in my U2 tribute band. I chose to buy the Adam Clayton Warwick over the Adam Clayton Fender as it seemed to me the Adam Clayton used this bass a lot more the the green jazz bass. It was half the price and really looks the part.

The first thing that struck me about this bass was the weight. It's roughly 8 lbs which is ideal for a 2 hour gig. I have had this bass for about 5 months and have gigged with it regularly. It balances very well on the shoulder and feels very comfortable.

The Seymour Duncan SPB-3 pickups sound really great. They are hotter than stock fender p bass pick ups and they really cut through the mix in a gig.
The control layout is great with master volume, tone and bass knobs. This really gives the player alot of control over the tone of the instrument. The bass sounds full and articulate and has a vintage, familiar p bass sound. The action was low and the intination good straight out of the box!

The neck is very like a jazz bass with the same comfortable 1.5" width at the nut. Also I'd say that it is easier to access the notes higher up the neck than the fender basses. It has 21 frets too. It has a satin soft finish that feels fast and smooth. It's a three piece bolt on neck.

In terms of quality, I have to mention a few things: firstly two of the machine heads were loose as the thread on the washer was too shallow. The machine heads would slip slightly when I tuned the bass and they would require tuning on a more regular basis. This is not acceptable for a ¤1,000 bass. Secondly, the strings that come with it are of a poor quality ( ¤10 strings.... not good). These strings started to ware away at the frets (which are not brass despite the Warwick description).

I have up-graded my bass with some parts purchased from Warwick to try to bring it nearer the ¤5,000 custom shop version.
1. Ebony truss rod cover ( the plastic "Adam Clayton" one was too garish)
2. Just-a-nut III brass. ( I didn't like the cheap plastic one)
3. Ebony tuning pegs.
These upgrades give the bass a more elegant look but at an additional expense of about ¤200.
Finally I brought the bass to my local luthier for a checkup and setup. He fixed the issue with the machine heads easily enough and replaced the original plastic nut with the new brass one which he also filed to prevent the strings catching. He also put a fresh set of good quality DR strings on it. Now I have the bass I wanted! It's incredible what a difference a good set of strings can make. He did not need to make and adjustments to the neck and the bass had no loose frets either. Electrics were all sound too.

In conclusion, this is a decent light weight great sounding and versatile bass with some minor build quality issues, but at 1/5 the price of the Warwick custom shop Adam Clayton version. However unlike my fender basses, I would not gig with this bass without a backup.

Good but could have been better
Bassface1 27.04.2021
I got this as I was looking for a pbass for gigs but wanted something a little different than a normal precision bass. Let's start with the positive points: it is an amazing looking bass, great sound from the Seymour Duncan pick up and a nice curved body with a Warwick adjust a nut and supplied with a Warwick Rockbag. Has the option to register for an extended warranty. Set up was good, action was fine and the bass was well set up from the factory to be fair. Strings were good too. Now, for the negatives: This bass came with a neck pocket way too big for the neck. Cosmetic issue only, seems to play fine so far, but not good enough on a €990 instrument. Also, the bolts holes for the neck on the back were really badly drilled and chipped around the rim where the bolts go in to the neck. There are two strips of rosewood or similar running down the back of the 5 piece neck and one of these is quite high/swelled around the 12-15 frets. I found a tiny shard of metal on the pick up also. My thoughts on this bass: Nice bass but not good enough quality control for what is pretty much a €1K bass. To be fair, I want to make it totally clear this is a factory quality control issue and I must compliment Thomann customer care as they were really excellent. It is an average instrument at best due to these quality control issues and though a great looking, sounding and playing bass, it was let down by this poor quality control from the factory. For this reason it rates average. Overall, I am happy with it, if a little underwhelmed.

Buy with caution
Anoniem 14.08.2016
Bought this because I love Warwicks (have had a thru neck thumb for 16 years) but wanted something a bit more classic looking to play in a blues rock band. Thomann were the only place selling them and I couldn't afford a Streamer CV.

The set up wasn't amazing but it initially performed well and I was very happy with the sound. However disaster struck after I got it out to play at a quite high profile gig to find the action had increased massively - the neck had slipped.

I took it to an excellent luthier who found that the screws had stripped out from the body due to a very short neck pocket and short screws. This necessitated routing and inlaying stronger wood (wenge) and longer screws. It now seems to be fine but time will tell.

This would appear to be a design issue as opposed to a quality control one so I would be very wary about purchasing this bass.
