Value of a Thumb....

[knicknack]

Just looking for a rough value of this thumb bass, 1994, bolt on neck in a fair condition for a bass 14 years old! With a case as well. I can do fender prices but I am a warwick novice!

I recently sold a 2004 Thumb BO for £550 including shipping in a hardcase on here, and it had a few dings. I don’t know if that helps? One sold for a bit less than that not so long ago either. The market is sh*t for Warwicks at the moment if you’re selling, if you’re buying it’s happy days

[knicknack]

yeah i gathered that is wasn't good, although these pre 97/98? ones seem to to fetch higher prices?

You could probably try starting at around £600 and see what happens, but I’ve seen a really nice 1991 Thumb NT not sell on here for £750 quite recently ( [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=22641"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=22641[/url] ) so you might be pricing yourself out of a sale if you start asking for a price much higher than £600, and in all honesty, you’d do very well to get £600 for it at the moment considering it’s had the original black hardware swapped out of it for some chrome hardware at some point as well.

Hi,

My Warwick did not sell even at that ridiculous price!!

Agree that it certainly is the buyers market right now - if anyone is still interested that Thumb is still for sale at somewhere near that price.

Thanks

Mark

It's not a JD... Still an absolute stunner though, can't believe that hasn't sold at that price mate! - Give it to the Gallery to sell and you should easily get your price after commission.
