joe_bass Posted September 9, 2011 Author Posted September 9, 2011 [quote name='LukeFRC' post='1367262' date='Sep 9 2011, 08:04 AM']I think 92 was when the factory changed.[/quote] I've heard people say 96-99 mainly. 92 would be an earlier date to throw in to the mix! Maybe a Warwick buff could chime in??

MikeBass Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 really nice. i was told - when hunting for mine circa 1992 - best ones were pre 1996/97. I wouldn't trade my 1991 NT 5 Thumb for anything - my 1988 defretted NT4 has EMGs and it's hotter than the 5 string but the 5 is still THE one. I'd love another NT5 string from 1990/91/92. dont do it!!!

For instance; there's no guarantee that an 89 will be any slimmer than a 91, though I tried a 93 (pre factory move) that was chunkier than my 90. However, saying all of that, the very earliest basses were categorically slimmer (82-86/87 though post 86/87 pre 95/96 basses are not generally big necks) BUT I'm not so sure that the 5 strings were as different in profile as the 4's! I'd certainly say try before you buy if you are thinking of trading and adding cash.

I wouldn't trade this on a whim! & only for another 'wick that I feel would be as good. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='1367862' date='Sep 9 2011, 04:54 PM']It was indeed mid 90's when Warwick changed factory location...[/quote] Thanks for that WH. So in a nutshell based on what I'm after I'd be wanting to look at mid 90's or earlier, but would be best to try first.
