FS/FT Warwick Thumb 5 string (Broadneck Custom Shop option.). SOLD.

[Chris2112]

Morning all,

I'm fancying a new toy this morning. So up for trade or sale I put my only bass, my Warwick Thumb 5 string BO with the Broadneck and soapbar options.

Previously owned by our very own Clarky, this bass is in beautiful condition. It's an easy 9/10 on condition, it has been very well looked after and I have enjoyed it immensely but I fancy a slap machine as I've been listening to a lot of Stuart Hamm lately. Yes, my bandmates, sound engineer and producer will no doubt lament me moving on the Warwick but I fancy a change.


Some pictures, borrowed from Eude:












The bass comes with a Warwick Rockbag, tool kit, manual and wax. I may be able to source a hardcase to post it, if you so wish.


Trade wise I'm not sure what I'm after, so I would be open to offers but ideally I'd like something quite bright and slappy. For sale, I'd like £900 so trades of about that value (I can add some cash for the right bass).


I look forward to hearing from you!

Very Yummy!

Can you not wait until the new year to post this for sale??

[Chris2112]

Bumping this bass after a long hiatus. Looked like it was sold, alas was not to be. As above, trade value around £900-£1000. For sale for £900. Ideally looking for a trade as the money would undoubtedly go towards another bass! But I will listen to any offer, so please don't hesitate to get in touch. As before, I can add cash for the right bass on a trade.

Yup, I don't know where these rumours about me owning a broad neck Thumb Bass have come from.
I used to own a regular one though...

Good luck with sale regardless

Yes, not sure where I got that idea from...

Anyway, bump for the weekend.

Bump

And again... never played a 'wide neck' model and I'm glad really as it was a tough call to move on a standard width where I was looking for a 'bit' more spacing a la Fender.
Good luck, looks lovely!

Chris,

I really wish this thread would be invisible to my BC account!!!!!

I've just sold my thumb 4 to fund mixing fees and rig upgrades but this is making my life very very hard

Indulge yourself, or trade me something! You only live once! I hasten to add that I can add a sizeable amount of cash towards a trade too, should the right bass come along.

Bump, send me those offers, folks! Be cheeky and you might catch my in a good mood. I will also sell for £850 collected.

Bumpity bump.

[Chris2112]

Bump since I've been away in the Lakes for the weekend and couldn't get on basschat. To give a suitably PS1 theme to this bump, remember:

TO TOOT ROLL LOUD ROLL TROLL TO DOOR.

Medieval!

Forgot about this bump.

How does this beast hang on a strap Chris? It looks as though it might be a bit neck-heavy.... is that so?

And would you be at all interested in my Status? Not that I'm 100% sure that I want to trade.... and I would want to try your Warwick... etc, etc.

Hope you are well BTW!

You have mail!

It hangs well on a strap, as long as you don't wear it round your ankles it won't neck dive. I'm not sure what I'm after, trade wise. If I were to sell it, I'd probably go after a Status or an Alembic. An Alembic would be a big, big draw at the moment! I wouldn't get rid of the Status if I were you, it's too much of a family heirloom!

You're right. I must stop looking at this bloody forum!

[Chris2112]
