Sorry guys.

It was just... I had a Buzzard GAS-attack. And it is like an evolution of an Explorer or Thunderbird, isn't it? And then there's Curtis the cat formerly known as John Alec Entwistle. Every morning I get out of bed he pulled 'Bass Culture = The John Entwistle Collection' of the sheld and opened it at the Warwick Buzzard page with his tiny grey haired little thunder-paws.

I gues it's hard to marry a guy who already has two kids/cats but Curtis still loves the T-bird most!

I still like the original Buzzard with its oversized headstock. Now Warwick only makes a smaller 4-in-a-row headstock and the 2+2 for the cheaper bolt-on version.

Warwick is German. I think the Buzzard is the Über-bird.

There are 200 for him to sift thru, so there *should* be a couple!  Maybe a week?

I never knew where the inspiration for the Buzzard came from. You learn all sorts of interesting things here on the Warwick forum.  ;D

Does anyone remember that bolt on Buzzard that was on eBay around 2003? I'm still pissed I didn't snag that one. I didn't like the 2+2 configuration either and thought the finish looked wrong for that shape (I think it was zebrano). All that said, it went for some ridiculous price like $1300 or something. Talk about missing the boat! Even if it was the 'lesser' model, that was a deal...

Two companies made the Buzzed birds, correct?

Only 5 batteries to power his carbon fiber bird




I have a theory as to why his tone became as artificial & brittle. I believe that he adjusted his tone for what he heard, which was confounded by the fact he too was going deaf. All those years of damage to your hearing would have effect the way you hear things vs how they really sound.

That's why I feel his best tone was from his P bass & Fenderbirds.
