simon1964 Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 (edited) I'm looking to trade my BO Thumb 4 string for a 5 string of some sort. I'm fairly open minded as to what, although preferences would be Warwick, Sandberg or a Stingray 5, but if you have something else try me! [attachment=37653:thumb_4.jpg] Its absolutely mint (the only marks are where the MEC logo has worn off the pickup covers - which seems to happen on all of them). Its got a really nice grain, and has been regularly waxed with Warwick wax. Fantastic growly Warwick tone, and a really nice player. As with all Thumbs, its not a featherweight, but there really are no issues at all with it. I'm only putting up for trade as its fallen behind the Shuker and Musicman, and I could do with a five string (although please feel free to try on me on 4 strings too - I'm pretty susceptible to spontaneous random GAS!).

I'm not desperate to shift this, as its a cracking bass. More a case of seeing whether there's something nice out there with five strings to trade. But if you want to make a cash offer, feel free!
