If the audio representation is of this actual bass, I think it’s one of the best sounding basses I’ve ever heard. Almost sounds “acoustic”. So much resonance. I love it!
I am not so much a fan of Warwick or "fancy wood choices", but my god, this is jaw-droppingly beautiful instrument. And this comes from a Spector fanboy ^^
Would like to have the fret work. Also wondering about the type of shielding paint being used that is safe without mask. Really nice way for Warwick Framus to connect with musicians and techs/builders. 😎
Apparently Raffir just implies that they took wood or ivory and infused or injected it with resin (so it's plastic wood now). Don't get me wrong though, it's still beautiful, I just wonder how it changes the tone of the wood, structurally, I'm sure it's extremely durable.
The Warwick string trees look really bizarre. Is there any reason for them to be so bent before they go into the nut at such an angle? And why must the strings be so close together the B to the E and the G to the D look like they're almost touching. I can't imagine that it does anything for the sound of the bass. Also it killed me in that they glossed over the back of the beautiful neck. Otherwise awesome.
I have to read you comment at least 3 times until I understand what you mean with "string trees"... because the headstock doesn't have any string tree at all! What you mean is just the shape of the headstock and the distribution of the tunning machines. Check this out: kytary.co.uk/cort-action-v-plus-bm/HN165625/ www.talkbass.com/threads/the-ibanez-club-part-3.563271/page-8 See? The angle of the string from the tunning machine to the nut depends of the shape of the headstock, some go straight and others go in angle. But that's right, it does nothing to the quality of the sound, because the pickups only catch the vibration of the string from the bridge to the nut.
@José Silva - No wood at all. This top is a composite material with aluminium meshes encapsulated in a translucent epoxy resin. The material has unique three-dimensional textures with contrasts between satin light grey aluminium and deep coloured semi-transparent resin. The material was provides by a company called Raffir and they call this material Raffir Alume.
Why didn't you show the face of that girl who glues neck and body wings together? She's beautiful. And other team folks are great persons too. They deserve to be shown.

Those guitars look so majestic, like queens. Always love Warwick, best bass in the world, no doubt ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Marvelous masterpiece! Absolutely worth the precious wood!
Warwick
So cool seeing the build process
Such a sweet looking instrument when finished
I'm telling Santa right away
2:40 what an spectacular view!
That was the best looking bass I've ever seen
Even though PRACTICALITY is paramount, their's a whole lot to be said for ESTHETICS , beauty matters !!

Just beautiful! I wish Warwick used EMGS instead of MECS.
Good heavens that top's nice...
Reechou de mais
This is a work of art!
Nice Video Liked it thanks for sharing Framus & Warwick
Glue all those exotic wood chips together and make some world class particle board....
They use it to heat the factory.
Veryyyy beautiful!!!!
Beautiful!
A thing of beauty!
Damn what a beautiful bass!
Awesome work !
Gorgeous!!
beautiful

Have seen the fret work. Darn phone.
I wish this was my job
Gorgeous !!! :)

I gotta get me one of these bass’s one day
Uma verdadeira obra de arte
With all the making of video’s it seems that there is a awful lot of precious wood just routed away.
@George Townswick to heat the workshop

The top is only 2.5 cm. It's tonal impact is gonna be negligible.
Same with woods like buckeye burl. They need to make it stable with epoxy or something like that
this is so pretty
first time seeing a raffir wood
I dont care what anyone says. I like lighted frets. Wished i had some.
That is one nice-ass bass.
Amazing 😎😎😎
Could you please tell us more about raffir? I've never heard about it
Vibhas Patil Raffir seems to be a company that sells stabillized wood (wood injected with resin).
The top is not Raffir Wood, but a Raffir composite called Raffir Alume.
How do I order products?
You could tell by how it machined that it’s plastic, not wood. It came off in little strips, not dust
Wow, you're a genius.
How mach prise this guitar bass
The Warwick string trees look really bizarre. Is there any reason for them to be so bent before they go into the nut at such an angle?

You are correct, they sound like crap!

Good bass..
Es ist besser, was ich gesehen habe
How i can order this awesome bass gutars?
Just go to the Warwick website... I guess...
And on the 7th day God created the CNC machine....how perfect and exact can you get?
yet increased the prices of the products by 200%
CNC : "yes"
What I give for a Stage 2 Streamer!
Hold up, that top wood is naturally that blue?!?!? WOW
WOW.
What kind of wood was used on this top?
@José Silva - No wood at all. This top is a composite material with aluminium meshes encapsulated in a translucent epoxy resin.

Lindo
Seems like Warwick started to use another glue instead of titebond?
I believe its because of the resin nature of the top, they are probably using a epoxy resin, not sure titebond would work on that kind of material.
HOOOOOOOO MAAAAAAN, NICE GUITARE !!!!!!!
???????? $$$$$$$$
The top it's plastic?? I'm start collect cap soda and melted 😀😂
Why didn't you show the face of that girl who glues neck and body wings together? She's beautiful. And other team folks are great persons too. They deserve to be shown.
I feel there is a lot of wasted wood during these builds.
What’s with the weird music?
I just love it! :D
Pornography :(
Looks like a bowling ball. No thanks.
