He becomes Chief Inspector and dies in the end. Look at all that time I've saved you.

Ahhhhh! Thanks for that.

'Twang' and 'Flabber-flump', I'd guess.

Band tour bus heading for a gig in the local 'phone-box?

Pardon?

And on the Seventh bass, He rested.

I've been attempting something similar of late: I have only played one note per set for the last twenty years. (Eb if you need to know. Used to carry a G as 'backup', but it confused me.)

I hate you, hate you, hate you, hate you, hate you, hate you ... ... 😁

Oo-er missus! Better if attached to a bass. 👍

At the time of my 29th, Leo Fender was still repairing radios! 🤣

That'll be you in your avatar then? 😁

Look away vicar! 🫣

A Lada 19,200! I bet that was thirsty!

so, you drove a Lada Never 4x4?

Surely a sixer, as there's one on the dashboard? 😉

Probably go for this Jazz Select if pushed for a four-string fender, although the CS '64 pushes it close.

A Fiat four wheel in CAR. Does it come with flats?

I'd say that a Thumb almost falls into 'Marmite' bass territory. Some folks love them; others not so much. In my time I've owned fourteen Warwick basses and moved all of them on except the Thumb neck-through fiver. It's a heavy beast, but with a wide, suede-backed strap, neck dive is much reduced, although a full hour's set with one, leaves you feeling like Quasimodo at times. The sound - mine is a two-band - is certainly 'burpy' and no other bass I own can get near to that Warwick voice. I'd also say in response to your comment about a Streamer, that these do not really sound anything like a Thumb, contrary to the video, and they are much 'easier' on the shoulder. See if you can find one near you and give it a go: it's the only way you'll ever know if you'll gel. Best of luck with the search.

Regarding the sore hand when playing five string - try raising your strap height, it will provide a better breal-angle on your left wrist. Hope this helps

I really like playing this one. Sounds excellent in a band mix.
