Love the throaty quality of the NT.

Nice bass! But gawd I hate blue leds.

I have this particular Stingray 5 HS neck through coming in soon. Am so stoked!

Sold the 4003. Still got the v63.

I would deal with this nice guy any time. Very recommended.

I sold my Warwick Dolphin Pro1 five string to Clément.
Communications were quick and clear, everything went very smooth.

Enjoy that Warwick beast, Clément!

SOLD!

Sale pending.

Argh! Hou eens op.

Price dropped. I am giving this one more week before retracting.
If it doesn't sell then this bass will spend the rest of its life in a rack at my attic, unplayed.

Sadly adding the site to exceptions did not help.
There is something wrong with the security certificate on the website.

Edge and Chrome are now both blocking, even without Bitdefender interfering.
Chrome is telling me the cert is invalid.

Max contacted and reassured me that everything is OK, just the website is not.

After receiving his mail I further investigated the website with several browsers.
With Google Chrome it refuses to load. With Microsoft Edge (which I mostly ommit) it does work.

Google also tells me it is an unsafe site before it further refuses to load. Edit: It may be the Bitdefender AV plugin, too.

Anyway, thank you Max for clearing everything up and I am looking forward to receiving my micro thumpinator.

Got an e-mail addres through the internet archive, opened a copy of the website from some months ago.
Let's see the response through paypal first though.

I have asked for my money to be returned though paypal.

And this one, too:

403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

404 - File or directory not found.

The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Just opened a page, but found out that was in my browser cache. Darn.

Hi guys,

Three days ago I ordered a micro thumpinator through sfxsound.
I payed through paypal.

From that point on I have received no communication whatsoever so I was looking to contact Sfxsound today only to find that the website no longer exists.
Does anybody know what's going on here? I know Sfxsound aren't frauds, I am just afraid the company has gone out of business.

Do I retract my payment just to make sure or does anyone know how I can get in touch?

Thanks for any help.

Tempting to upgrade my 4 to a 5 .... it's what I really wanted when I got the 4!   I fear the extra string would be expensive though.. what's a 4 string Dolph worth these days?

This one (albeit a 1989 with the bart humbucker on) is a helluva lot more expensive then my fiver. I honestly don't know why people fall for that kind of overpricing.

Maybe you can just put it up as 'open to offers' and see where this takes you. I do expect it to catch at least two grand.

@CPBass I made up my mind for sure. Sorry no trade. Good luck selling that unique instrument though.

How about an exchange for my Status Graphite Buzzard 2?.

its one of the very few basses Id trade for.

I think we may have discussed this or something else on the Warwick forum.

Cheers

Gazing at your ad right now. It IS a very interesting bass you got there.
I was hoping to score some money and find a Wal, or buy that Acoustic 360/361 stack that's for sale...
But then it IS a very interesting bass you got there.

Gawd I'm awful aren't I? You're messing up my plans Col. LOL. Gimme a day to align to the stars.

Second thoughts again. Should I sell or not?

Are we really debating taste in music?

I love all the Yes stuff up till 1975. In the eighties they were popular and boring (although there are some wicked basslines on their Drama album).
It all went downhill from '75 on according to my taste.

Squire taught Geddy how to play bass tho. No debate there. Lee even said it himself. Big influence.

On that tip, concerning big rock bass player names - I personally never got The Who. All their songs are equally boring. Entwistle's tone was just awful.

Taste does things concerning how well songs or styles land with you, see?

Will have a look at transferwise. Thanks guys!

Kinda hesitant but I am thinking this will be the right decision. I never play this absolutely beautiful bass anymore since I got my Fodera.

PRICE LOWERED FOR 1 WEEK, then retracting from sale: Selling this beauty for GBP 2300 or 2550 euro + shipping cost (please enquire for info).

Built in Germany, 2005 so made of Ovangkol. Almost pristine condition. There's one tiny little dent at the bottom side of the body and one of the tuners is a bit wobbly when there is no string in place (sits solid when the string is there though).
I upgraded the nut to a JAN3 brass, everything else is completely original. This bass has a thin neck profile and plays like a dream. Action on it is really stupid low, plays like a formula one race car.
Bottom picture is recent, top one I made some time ago.

Will ship all across europe plus UK (are there any duties in place yet when shipping between Europe mainland and UK yet?). Bass will be shipped in a hardcase and very well packed.

Not really interested in any trade offers, I have too many basses already.
Payment options: Direct bank transfer prefered. Transferwise is another option. No Paypal as I have had problems with them in the past and they are crooks.
You can check my status here on the forum or the official Warwick forum where I have been an admin for ages.

If you want specific detail pics, just ask.

Cheers, Marco
