SOLD! - Warwick Thumb BO 5 £1250 Poland

[SaimoN]

For sale my Warwick Thumb BO 5 bass.

Made in 2003, body & neck ovangkol, wenge fingerboard, 2-way MEC preamp & MEC pickups.
Bass is in great condition for it's years. Electronics are working fine, it's fully adjustable (no trussrod or bridge problems), frets show no signs of wear. Nut changed to Just-A-Nut III, new tailpiece installed (can fit thicker B string now).

Bass sounds great, has lots of that famous Warwick growl, and is really "in yer face" punchy in the mix. Neck isn't that thick (at least compared to my '08 'Vette $$) and it's more of a C shape than a D shape really. You can set your action really low. Either way, it's really comfy to play. It has no neckdive & isn't much of a neck heavy.

The price is £1200/€1400 - including case, insured shipment within the EU, and PayPal costs (I can do this money transfer only).

My old bass! Nice!

[SaimoN]

Indeed! It's a superb piece of instrument, gave me lots of fun & helped me improve my skills, but I have to let it go... I upgraded to Thumb NT and this Thumb BO doesn't get the attention it should, so I'm trying to find someone who can make more use of it than me at this point.

Hi. Weight is about 4,8 kg. String spacing is normal, it isn't a broadneck bass (they have humbuckers instead of single coil pickups).

Thanks for the clarity buddy.

Yes, it's sold. I may be selling Thumb NT in the near future though!
