Thunderthumbs Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) I know I'm going to end up regretting this. It's going to break my heart as I bought this brand new 17 years ago, but I've decided the time has come to let my Warwick Thumb NT 5 string go to a good home. It's been getting less and less use the past couple of years, virtually none in fact, so it's pointless sitting at home doing nothing. I always used to take it to gigs with me as a backup, but it was getting used for 1 song at most (even if we did it) as I reverted back to a 4 string as my main bass a couple of years ago. Price £1000 although may consider a bass+cash trade. Comes with a Gator hard case.

Pedro1020 Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 I recall you saying this Mr Thunderthumbs.. [quote name='Thunderthumbs' post='111091' date='Dec 30 2007, 07:26 PM']Gorgeous basses. I've got one the same, but made a couple of years later methinks. It's the one bass I'll take to my grave I think.....even the Mrs wouldn't see it sold! [/quote] It's fair you don't use it as much, but still *points above*.. Anyways, have a [b]BUMP![/b] on behalf of me mate you'll always buy the best from Thunderthumbs true testimonial raite there.
Pedro1020 Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Wacky as it may seem, as soon as I get rid of my Fender Bronco....I'll be pitching in for this just a heads up mate!

They're both in the same age bracket..(early 90's) Pete's is natural whilst John's is laquered.. A couple of the few...hence Im tied up! got money to spend and GAS to release..we'll just have to see what happens..Trust here more than the bay, since peeps are kind, honest and generous.. But dw andy..it isn't a battle... I'm just shopping about!..

The Funk Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Is this bass still available? And what pick-ups / preamp does it have?
Golchen Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Ignorant peasant here: Why do they put the pickups so close on those basses? Why not have one nearer to the neck?

Mace Posted June 8, 2008 Posted June 8, 2008 (edited) Still available? I've got a MM Stingray 5 string 20th Anniversary Edition if of interest for swappage? Cheers Edited June 8, 2008 by ieuanmacey
