  1. Hi there can you give me dimensions on the 1x12 cab please and just checking it's 8Ohm 300W? Ta
  2. 1990 Thumb NT6: Custom factory finish, never seen another; looks black but is actually a slightly transparent very dark blue/purple. I’m told by the previous owner it’s one of a set: a 4 a 5 and a 6 done for a show in 1990. Good condition for age, some small dings but nothing major at all. Handmade era, heavy duty hardware, you can see from the pix the extra weight to the tuner keys, bridge castings etc. Plays very easily, low action no buzzing, little fret wear; very, very articulate sound with a really solid low B Currently has Seymour Duncan Basslines fitted but the factory fit Bartolinis are included in the sale. 2 band EQ: Master Vol, Pan, stack Tr/Bass. Strung with Elixirs. Comes in an original Warwick Alu fitted flight case (in its cardboard outer). Some wear but it’s a flight case!!! Works well; when I got this it arrived from Germany in tune! [size=5][b]£1,650[/b][/size] [b]Thanks for the many offers of trades I've had but I think I'm going to have to sell and buy; this does however mean there's some wriggle room....[/b] Thanks for looking.

  3. Hi all thanks for the comments.. I've also had a few PM's so quick update to answer some questions.... Thanks for the offers but I'm not interested in any trades. I'm happy to ship anywhere just not at my cost hence the UK mainland bit... if you're elsewhere and you arrange the courier (so you can choose to insure/or not etc..) I'll take £30 off the top line. Sorry I don't have a Paypal account. This coming weekend I'm gigging in Saddleworth on Saturday and Surrey on Sunday if you fancied saving on the courier cost... Andy
  4. Thunderfunk TFB 750A... up for sale at £850 delivered to UK mainland. Sounds amazing, clear, detailed and with more punch and headroom than you'll ever need: to quote Dave Funk "other amps throw doughnuts... my amps throw bowling balls..." pretty much sums it up. Overall in very good condition, front and rear unmarked; it did get two scuffs on the top during shipping to me (pix included). It's in a Boschma case (included), whilst the rear panel is also included but doesn't slide into place as the level control for the DI sticks out a fraction too much.

  5. What a gorgeous instrument... good luck.
  6. Try asking if he's ever moved it; i.e. did it ever work... it could just be the threaded Allen key end has come off and may 'catch' again; if it's stripped it's reasonably major, like KiOgon says getting hands on would tell you in a minute. If it's too far away to try and you don't have a friendly tech I'd leave alone.
  7. It's easy.. you NEED both.. em want both, emmm ... had both. Try both, preferably playing the same set with the same band and gear and if at all possible the same venue... they're both fantastic at what they do and live the nuances of one will settle it for you... honest... problem is; change bands/set and.... it's Groundhog day!!! Enjoy
  8. Hi there, although not in the market just now I just HAD to say I [i][b]LOVE[/b][/i] the look of this bass. Good luck.
  9. rumour6

    Sold !

    These earlier Warwicks are just stunning, the slimmer, non volute, necks and Wenge boards are beautiful and the overall build is second to none. Good luck.
  10. Looks fabby, have to say I prefer the two pickups rather than the sliding Grabber version...
  11. rumour6

    Withdrawn.

    Had to say.. that looks fabulous, love the scratchplate/colour combination and the matching headstock really sets it off... beautiful.
  12. I bought the Fretless version when they came out and used it for years; fabby basses, beautiful necks and very easy to set any action.. good luck.
  13. The expression.. that works!!!... comes to mind
  14. Very nice.. good luck.
  15. Hi all, got a 1990 Thumb 5NT, had a 2005 Thumb 5 BO... although I love the build of the NT, neck shape, no dive etc... I preferred the sound of the 2005 especially on the low B... anyone else noticed this? Are the pickups the same i.e. could I just change the (terribly expensive!!!) preamp?? All help welcome as is a re-direct if this is in the wrong Forum... Mods??? Andy
  16. Have played this, really easy action and as stated pristine nick... good luck. Andy
  17. Warwick Thumb 5NT? 1990, original hand made series,so no neck dive and the neck is really quite slim, quite heavy (think 70's ash Jazz!!) in original (good quality) gig bag. If you wanted any pix just PM me a standard email address. Andy
  18. Steve it's like this... wine [i][b]ONLY[/b][/i] works properly if you apply a judicious Cider chaser... so... to get a [b][i]clear[/i][/b] picture.. [b]drink more cider[/b]. Problem solved; no matter what it is 'cause you now don't care.... apply formula: Cotes du Rhone + Stella Cidre = yes now bass gear.... emmm... ahhh... whit!! Good luck ... Andy
  19. Lovely... in the style but subtly different, love this era (Bright Size Life etc..) when they were all working with Manfred Eicher's ECM label. Andy
  20. Got one of these... stonking.., my all time fav cab... steal at the price regardless of tolex condition.. you only have to listen once... good luck... can't justify two!!!
  21. Just traded with Dean, top bloke, really easy, great to deal with and understanding when the courier **** hit the fan... Totally recommended and would definitely do business again.
  22. Withdrawn is the last from me. There's been a few comments as I was asked some questions. Sorry for an cofustication (as JRR would say..)
  23. I have a 5 (Fretless) on order.. can't wait.. these are fabulously built instruments. Good luck...as you say, silly price for what this is.
