Sold pending the usual...Warwick Thumb NT5 '88 £1250

[andytoad]

Well,
My short spasm into the world of Warwick NT5 is over. Why I thought id be comfortable with a wider 5 neck when my '87 SS2 is just perfect for me, I will never know. Its been said many times before on here, Gas is a terrible thing.

Anyway, its an '88 NT5 with EMGs, it has been set up by a fine friend of mine (ex WD Music in Ashford) with a new set of light gauge slinky's.

It has a new OEM Warwick B string tuning peg as the original was damaged, I will include the original. I have also fitted strap-locks which will be included (with the strap). The black hardware is a little worn as you'd expect for a bass of almost 30 years old, doesn't affect playability! Rock-case included also.

It plays lovely and sounds great, but the neck is not a natural complement for my girly Beadle type hands.

Im looking for what I paid excluding the setup, tuning peg, strings and strap-locks, which I think is fair!

PM with interest, I can meet a fair distance from Kent or courier at the buyers cost. Excuse the duff photos.

thanks all,

Andrew

What's the string spacing on this one?

(From memory, the Thumb 5's and SS2's have similar string spacing, so just wondering whether the wider neck comes with wider bridge spacing also).

stunning bass. Im also curious about the spacing. I have a 08 Thumb NT and the spacing seems quite narrow - well compared to my Streamer 5 but thats a broadneck.

How is this truss rod on this bass?

It's about 4.5mm at the nut, I will get some pictures up tonight..

The truss rod was adjusted during setup with no issues that I know of.
