As if that model isn't already ugly enough by itself.
Goes to prove Germans and Design don't go well together...  :popcorn:

Warwick's design team puts a block of plastic in an oven, heats it for an hour or so, then turns off the oven. Whatever blob the melted plastic sets in, that becomes a new Warwick body shape.  :mrgreen:

Credit where credit is due, Mark was the first one here to call them Wankwicks.

That shape is très unfortunate (even for Warwick standards), but the Yamaha Attitude isn't exactly a prom queen either.
