    I own a (black) Pro II and mine has silver hardware, so another colour option for you. The serial number is on the top/end of the headstock! I can't say I've ever seen an unfinished/natural bodied Pro II which leads me to think they are generally solid/burst colours for a reason...unattractive wood selection. Be aware that it is an absolute bugga to get some of the solid colours off Warwick basses and Nitromorse rarely shifts it.

    You need to put this in the correct section mate otherwise you'll get a slapped wrist!

    This being an 88 will mean a slim profile neck without a doubt; all other profiles are of no consequence... but I have a BO wenge neck Streamer from 97 that isn't as slim as the 80's models but it is a lot slimmer than some of the clubby basses I've encountered.

    [quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1413583499' post='2579983'] My poor attempt at a tribute is here: [/quote] If that is your 'poor' attempt... I'd hate to see a good one! [size=4] [/size]

    You'd never confuse the tone of a Thumb with that of a P or J bass. [size=4]You'd never confuse the look of a Thumb with that of a Fender derivative bass. [/size] [size=4]You'd never confuse the build quality of a Thumb with that of a Fender bass. [/size] [size=4]Those three aspects alone will polarise opinion and those that like them 'love' them, those that don't... generally hate them! [/size] I've owned a few NT Thumbs and never had neck dive and I think the sound suits some music superbly, do I own one now.... no. I find the small body/top horn means that the first position is just too much of a stretch 'with my strap length'. Some folks never have the same problem as me.

    Lovely bass John (shame about the colour... just for me mind)! Oddly enough I've just made the connection that I heard (not saw as I was seated around the corner in the bar) you a month or two back in Beadnell. Cracking musicianship and harmonies, wish I'd popped my head around and said 'Hello'!

    It's just an unbiased observation/piece of advise but if were you I'd pull it off ebay. At £1700 on ebay if someone places a single bid and wins it you'll pay a minimum of £170 fees (new min 10% fee) and if they pay via paypal it'll hit you for those fees as well (is it 5% or similar?). Not trying to haggle or knock you down, that is just a simple observation, just in case you weren't aware of the new fee structure.

    You're comparing NT German models with BO Korean jobbies... no justification for the original silly price but this isn't one of the neck-thru basees!

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1412706068' post='2571210'] One brand of bass I've never owned... and now I've got Warwick GAS!! Which one would you recommend for beefy, bouncy rocky, hard-playing with a picky, hefty loudy soundy in a three-piece bandy? [/quote] Stage I Streamer!
  11. warwickhunt
    Used GK 700/1001 RB combos!
  12. warwickhunt
    Goes without saying I'll be in attendance. Bringing a Warwick (or two), Sterling (or two), Bolin and Lightwave... just one of each; GK 1001 RB 2x10 combo.

    I may need to pop around for a cuppa some time soon... I'm getting itchy fingers! Oh and how very dare you dep with a rock band, that's my patch you are treading on; stick to your Knopfler et al gigs!

    What makes you say it is an '81 JV bass?
  20. warwickhunt
    Further North and I'd have had it at the drop of a hat!

    [quote name='nicko2711' timestamp='1409774367' post='2543297'] My '89 Streamer Stage 1 [/quote] My favourite (transition) era SSI... wenge neck but the 2 piece bridge.
  22. warwickhunt
    No, in fact I used it with a Godin SA guitar (nylon string), however it is the same unit as used for bass (you can switch between guitar/bass by holding down two buttons on start up).

    [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1409266595' post='2538243'] sign you're getting old John! [/quote] I was old when this was new... still the same old sh*t! [size=4] [/size]

    [quote name='cameltoe' timestamp='1409264862' post='2538237'] Yeah, I have noticed an airier, hollower, and sometimes boomier tone when using very lightweight neo driven cabs. I thought it was just in my head. [/quote] BEWARE... the experts assure us there is no difference [size=4] [/size][size=4] but 'some of us' think there is a conspiracy! [/size]
