bassplayer50000 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Just FYI for anyone who didn't already know (like me), I exchanged emails with HP Wilfer at Warwick this morning and he confirmed that the 2013 Limited Edition will be a Thumb bass. Further details on spec available in about 4 weeks, apparently. Can't wait to see what they come up with this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassplayer50000 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 They are usually bolt-on necks, rather than NTs, so are expensive but not mad money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LemonCello Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 On the inside cover of this months (John Taylor on the front) BGM is a piccie of a new Corvette special edish - block inlays if you please!

[/quote] It's getting more to the point where the second hand prices are realistic (second hand) prices and the current new prices are the result of Germans not living in the real world.

Phil-osopher10 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Well since it is now 2013 what does the bass look like? I'm excited because I know it is a Thumb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 A bolt-on Thumb, with retail price of £2939 for the 4-string, so just a tiny bit above the RRP for the regular Thumb BO. That seems to be the only info that's public so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
