A. Clayton Signature Stryker

[Edge_Orchestra]

Chances look good for an Adam Clayton Signature Model Styker.

Price? I've heard some numbers thrown around. It will not be a cheap buy. After all, they are handmade by folk that are paid well.

Love This Bass!

Good things come to those that wait?

Plus the posted picture is the first 'confirmation' (for lack of a better word) that the Warwidck reverse-body Stryker will (most likely) become a signature bass.

Love This Bass!

Pretty sweet, isn't it?

Now the question is... who will be the first of the U2 Tribute Adam's to play one? I reckon it's time for all the Tribute Adam's to begin saving now so they have the money ready once there is an official release date.

Heck, I am not a bass player (I play drums and guitars) and I would love to have one of these Warwick's.

...Like a friend of mine commented, it looks like a weapon you win in a video game when you save the Princess.

Epic want. But seriously, I won't be able to afford a bass worth more than 5000 euros.

I could pick it up personally though! This bass is so fucking epic I want it so badly!

Time to start saving now!

If you see a scruffy looking guy wandering the streets of LA with a cardboard sign that reads "Will write screenplay for Adam Clayton signature bass," don't be alarmed. It's just me.

would you go as far as being the bitch in a guy on guy b&d porno?

 

[Edge_Orchestra]

Wow!

...I was gonna go with... sell a kidney or something... Think you might have went a little too far that Quadcaster.

Uh.. I probably would do something like that if it would get me the bass.

As long as my family would never get to see it.

Have we learned NOTHING from Tiger Woods? Nothing is a secret min this day and age.

 

[ClaytonsKitten]

I wouldn't be able to play it, but my God. I want one. Just because it's his.

(Hai, I has issues!!)

Well played.


Sooo, when should we expect this bass to be available?

Perhaps soon after the NAMM convention in January. T'is my guess.

Either way, I'm certainly not going to be able to afford one anytime soon. A fangirl can dream, however...

This coming out around a tour year... when tickets for multiple shows have already been purchased and NOW... there is travel and accomdations to save for for the next leg... that makes an Adam Clayton Stryker bass out of price range -- for the short run!

Long run however...

Well, the tickets are already paid for me, so I've only accomodation and travel to pay for. Good thing that I'm only travelling to Belgium and Germany(heh, tour to Warwick's reseller in Hannover? I think so!) so that'll be cheap train fares for me!


So yeah, I hope by summer 2011 to be able to afford me one.

Long run, most def. Not this year...my hubby and I are working on getting tix, travel, and accommodations for the MI show in June. It's still soooooo pretty to look at. (And so is the man holding it! )

I always felt that Adam wass so underrated. But finally he gets some recognition and respect.

One site lists the WARWICK ADAM CLAYTON SIGNATURE REVERSO
at: 6099 Euros.

Using a currency calculator...
6,099.00 EUR = $8,752.67 USD

1 EUR = 1.43510 USD 1 USD = 0.696816 EUR

Eeeek.

 

[Galeongirl]

Where you linked us to it's 5899, still a lot of money but 200 dollars less.

I'll be saving for the next year or two, and then hopefully it'll drop a bit in price.

I find it strange that it's not on the Warwick website yet.
