well i have a warwick corvette. and i like it more than any other bass ive ever played. i used to have a fender, but now it seems so uncomfortable...ive played some moduluses and they are nice but i love the warwick so much better. never played a rockbass but i would say used warwick is good if its in good condition..

Never buy a bass online, always play the exact one you want to buy at a store. And there are tons of stores that carry Warwick. Rockbasses are good basses for the money for sure. YOU HAVE TO PLAY BEFORE YOU BUY.

i agree, but what about playing the bass in the store and getting the same model online for some cheaper price?

You can always see the grain of the wood, the nuances, how well it's set up, how it's been taken care of, etc, in the store.

i understand where youre coming from, but the warwick i bought...they have the same model in the store now and i dont like it nearly as much...it seems much cheaper than mine. i dont know why, but id feel sooo much safer buying the exact one i played
