*SOLD* Warwick Thumb 5 BO *SOLD*
pantherairsoft replied to pantherairsoft's topic in Basses For Sale

BASS NOW SOLD Hi people, No longer a feeler... The bass is stunning, as such I would love to keep it, but Christmas and bills mean if a reasonable sale can be made, I will let someone else enjoy it instead. This is a Warwick Thumb Bolt-On 5 string, 2006 model... The spec can be found here - [url="http://www.warwickbass.com/modules/produkte/produkt.php?katID=14447&cl=EN"]http://www.warwickbass.com/modules/produkt...14447&cl=EN[/url] As the pictures below will show, this has to be, in my honest opinion, the finest cut of Ovangkol I have ever laid my eyes on. The oil finish is perfect and wood appears darker than most other Thumb's I have tried. The overall appearance is stunning! The bass is in pristine condition with the exception of a tiny ding near the jack socket which was too small to show on a photo, you won't see it but may feel it if you run a finger over it (it's hardly existent, but thought it was fair to mention!). It's at the lighter end of the scale for a thumb and feels and plays like its new. Set up with a brand new set of 40-125's in the last few days. For this stunning example I am now asking SOLD (price dropped 20/12/09) OR BEST OFFER (will consider the odd effects pedal in part ex to knock down the price) collected from Nottingham (City Centre), I have no transport to deliver, (but will make a short train journey if you pay the fare!) and am not keen to post, but will do so fully insured at your cost and arrangement. Anyone thats want to popover is happy to sit and have a good play on her to see that she is even better than the pictures show! Only trade would be EBS heads. Included the Warwick users kit (handbook, wax, cloth, truss rod adjuster, allen keys etc) and the warwick strap-locks as well. Warwick Rock Bag now included!!! The pics (hope they do it justice)... Cheers Shep

GONE - MarkBass 106HF - Lightweight 6 x 10 - GONE

[quote name='lojo' post='671561' date='Dec 1 2009, 09:12 PM']Again, if someone would take my orange cabs! BTW how would this be with a LMII head? not sure about the 6ohm thing, just used to 4 and 8[/quote] would be fine mate, if a head can do 4 or 8 ohms then 6 is fine. Sounds closer to putting it in a 4 ohm cab though than an 8. 6 ohm is an odd breed but have had nothing but awesome sound out of each head i have tried through it. 1200w gives you plenty of headroom too!! -
Yes mate. Cant wait for it to get here. My understanding is it was made as a show bass, with no plans to actually sell it. Bernie tells me Randy Hope-Taylor was interested at Bassday, but at the time the bass was going nowhere. Bernie is upgrading the electronics with the metronome and tuner and thenits mine! Seems it helps being a friend of a friend

Mine was Stuck Mojo... supported from Psycore and Kill II This. Had never seen a mosh pit before, and I was stood in the middle when Mojo started. I was nearly killed... good gig though!

Soft overdrive or fuzz and a Markbass head with the VLE filter (Vintage loud Speaker Emulator) and turn it waaaaaaaaaay up. Just had it now with my SA450 head and Bass Blogger pedal, well close anyway!

[quote name='lojo' post='666414' date='Nov 26 2009, 04:32 PM']I really am quite interested in this but have the following issues 1. I am in surrey 2. I have 2 orange cabs, which would have to go if I go down the markbass route[/quote] Hi mate, 1. It would be a bit of a road trip for you... but it would be worth it... 2. Sell the Orange and buy markBass... it would be worth it... -
Bass Day UK 2009 (Royal Northern College of Music - Nov 22)
pantherairsoft replied to Gary's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='ped' post='664225' date='Nov 24 2009, 07:33 PM']Probably early if anything - I didn't arrive until 4.30 and wasn't really able to get a 'stand' as such sorted!! Next year it'll be all singing and dancing, believe me. Just been a bit off the pulse recently and didn't really get anything sorted. Poor effort on my part. But I enjoyed the show!! ped[/quote] Yes dammit, try harder :-) Was a good show all round. Very enjoyable -
Bass Day UK 2009 (Royal Northern College of Music - Nov 22)
pantherairsoft replied to Gary's topic in General Discussion
By the time I found what I believe was the 'Basschat stand' it was a table pushed up against the wall with about 10 tee's on it... so I'm guessing I was a bit late! :-) I agree that Randy is not a 'solo' kind of player. But look at youtube... you can see what he is capable of with a little prep!!! -
Bass Day UK 2009 (Royal Northern College of Music - Nov 22)
pantherairsoft replied to Gary's topic in General Discussion
My first Bassday. Loved it. Was great to meet a few people. I have left with horrid GAS, but hey ho! Randy was a let down, and I was really looking forward to that performance, but everything else was great. I tried so many basses it was hard to decipher them all. GB Spitfire my fav, followed by the Everson range... massively surprised by how well they played and at £800 a piece they blew the socks off a few 2k plus priced basses I played that day!!! Poogie and the boys rocked and Nathan East was great and a fantastic singer as well (that surprised me!). Had a great day, stayed right to the end as well. I'll be there next year. I may even practice my slap as well to make up for the lack of slap bass around ;-) -

[quote name='lojo' post='663751' date='Nov 24 2009, 02:09 PM']What price is this currently at? I am tempted to get something like this to go with my littlemark head and give up my quest to complete my orange stack That would mean I would have to sell 2 orange cabs (or at least one)[/quote] Its at £675, collected from Nottingham. Every time I type £675 it guts me! :-( -
*GONE* Overwater Evolution 5 Custom
pantherairsoft replied to pantherairsoft's topic in Basses For Sale
[quote name='SimBass' post='663878' date='Nov 24 2009, 03:42 PM']Its way out of my price range but that has got to be the most beautiful dark wood basses I've ever seen in my entire life![/quote] I agree with that. And when it goes i will kick myself. But this may be the only way to own another custom instrument. I doubt I'll ever own another bass that looks this good though! -
[b]This has now been traded. For anyone still interested in this beauty of a bass it can be located here... [url="http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Overwater_Evo_5.html"]http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_sp...ater_Evo_5.html[/url][/b] ------- I'm sure you have all seen this on various threads already, but have included pics below. This is pretty much brand spanking new. It is hardly 10 months old and I have had her from birth having picked the spec myself. This has never been gigged! Played only at home and 3 times in the studio. Stunning sound quality with the most thunderous low B you have ever heard (Just ask Chris at Overwater!!). Still with a stunning as new Overwater set up... To me this is the best example of an Overwater bass I have seen or played. Spec... Overwater Evolution 5 string Custom Fretted 35" scale Body: White Ash with Wenge top plate (with matching headstock, pick up covers AND 12th fret marker) Neck: 3 piece Maple with a Maple board (side dots, but only the Wenge Marker on the 12th) Hardware: Black - Hipshot style (with moveable saddles for string spacing) Electronics: OW BMT 3 band preamp and OW5 pickups (wood covers) Strings: OW Medium weight Nickels After adding the options etc and with the cost of the sheer amount of Wenge on this bass it's final cost came in at just over £2300 plus change. Comes with Strap locks installed and a Hiscox Hardcase. Pics... From overwater - From me under a natural light - More pics...
