I contactedx the seller. he says it's a german made bolt on. roughly estimates 1999 made.
I think I could get for about 850-900 incl. shipping. you guys think this is a good deal?

Thats the era of the "fatties" thick bb bat necks. It appears to be a solid wedge neck version and if so, good catch... BUT, they were on the fatter side (thick)

Ask our own member, "thumbslam" what he thinks. Could be a good bass with some TLC. Wasn't there another newer one here in Texas?

She's been ridden hard and put away wet. 750 good deal if you know how to work on them. Hardware is way worn but I'm sure functions fine the raw wood can be treated. The fact there is no logo at all left on the pickups makes me wonder slightly about them and I had a 6r just like that a while ago but in excellent condition and sold it for $1,100 in a flight case. Personally I wouldn't go for it and those necks are not that fat but wide just uncomfortable IMO....Thing is with used older Warwicks you haveto make sure the truss rod is OK and moves there were some bad necks a while ago...just sayin..
