Dubs Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) No long explanations; after a couple of months with this I think I’m looking for something slightly different, possibly an older Warwick NT (Streamer or Thumb). Only really interested in trades but will accept cash if it means I can buy the bass I want. I’m not after top dolla for this as I got it for a steal, but I have spent a good few hours on touching up some blemishes. Can’t really say a lot more about this bass other than it sounds bloody fantastic and it will come with an aluminium Warwick flightcase. Anyone interested? EDIT: Picture added below. This is a '98 with a wenge neck. Edited March 8, 2009 by benwhiteuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Just to say, Ben is a legend to deal with and this bass for it's age is in damn good condition and Ben has done a great job of restoring it further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a shame this has happened cos it’s a great bass and I’ve been trying to make it my regular, but I find my hand going for the SSI more than this so I don’t think there’s a lot of point me keeping hold of such a great instrument if it’s not gonna get played. It’s definitely a players bass, not a collectors piece… [quote name='rjb' post='355739' date='Dec 16 2008, 10:44 AM']Are you missing a bit o' the old Thumb action? :brow: Plenty of nice NTs around at the moment....[/quote] yeah a bit… I’ve been eyeing up one or two but I’m not holding my breath. I’ll just take things as they come and see what turns up. Fingers crossed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Lauren is being a c*** though. He should shut the f*** up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
